    5dimes lowers my limit to $500....WTF!?!?

    So, today I was down big and so I started degening up huge bets in an attempt to get it back (example: $1300 prop bet....$800 on College basketball 1st half). Well, anyways it worked....and i ended up a net winner today. I log in and want to put a $1,000 bet on the MNF NFL game and I receive a red error message that the amount exceeds the limit on my account and lowers it to $500. I tried the over/under and get the same message. What the hell is going on here?

    yeah, it probably will ... but you can also bet that the odds for the second bet will not be the same

    I also tried today to place a soccer ML bet and my max for this is 100 USD

    Sometimes they let you bet it twice for the same or a lower amount. Sometimes an error shows up saying you've maxed bet this game already.

    again, they will most likely let you place a second bet if you keep trying, but at lower odds (sometimes a lot worse)

    Prop lines reset with every $100 bet you make. How did you get $1,300 down on a single prop? It would have taken half an hour and the odds would have been out of control.

    congrats pal when they lower your limits thats when you know you've made it.


    it also means its time to get a new sportsbook.

    5dimes is intended for recreational players.

    Bookmaker and Heritage is better for pro players that need higher limits

    Bookmaker caps it props at $500 usd, and I know 5 dimes does a well. It's normal.

    $500 is standard for props...really doubt it has anything to do with you or your bets. Regardless, You should be at Pinny to begin with, 5dimes is a recreational book.

    any book that limit your bet is not worth to bet at all...did you see Vegas limit your bet. the sign on the table was just for show only.. You can always arrange with the pit boss if you wanna go over the limit... they will offer you private presidential suite and private jet and black cavier and Chateau Lafite and Elton John concert tickets front row seats...

    All Books I know have $500 max bet on props. If you want more action, pick up the phone.

    Most books also have $500 limit in the wee hours of the morning. This is usually comes into effect after the start of the second half of the last game of the night.

    Very Doubtful Skins were ever plus +7 -115.

    49ers were - 4 1/2 all day long at almost every book on Sunday. Today, Niners moved to - 5 1/2 and to buy up to +7 is the 147. Would have cost more late last night, not less.
