are they a plus? cream of the crop? never will bail?

[valaub04]

1) yes
2) opinions vary, but probably so for US customers
3) never say never

[sneakerhead]

go to their live chat and ask for tony, I heard a lot of good things about him

[tony_come]

No books are safe

not even facebook, too many fukks trying to fukk you up

[sneakerhead]

No books are safe not even facebook, too many fukks trying to fukk you up

[Rollins08]

As safe as there is. Every complaint that has come up has been kind of shady. Not one complaint about a slow pay from a legit winner.

[slatter]

Agreed, it's the best of the bunch, which isn't saying a ton these days, but it's still one of your best options.

[Hareeba!]

three concerns
1. they can limit you drastically but that's not a strike against safety of funds
2. Tony .. will do as he pleases ... don't try to get smart at this place
3. No US serving book can consider itself safe from Uncle Sam .. if their funds are within reach you have significant risk

[Wiggums5]

nope...hide ya kids...hide ya wife

[stevenash]

Best of the best, I don't trust their (or anybody else's) casino's though.

[ouman101]

You joined in '09. You already know the answer. Looks like this is a loaded question.

[Mudcat]

It is a relatively safe book

[stats13]

you trying to get someone killed with that post?

[RudyRuetigger]

safe..............for now. about all you can hope for at this point though

[midnight777]

i say they are solid....

[Streakster777]

they have a ton of props and all, damn.

[Legions36]

Very trustworthy book enjoy them.

[Frogger]

if u get to bet there and win u get paid

[hitman09]

I prefer Bookmaker, 5dimes? I saw tons of complaints about their casino, not sport plays yet.

[onlooker]

Besides the "Screen Scraping" misunderstanding, I have never had a problem.

[BrickJames]

yes

[lemart5]

Checks in 3 days flat

[Scooter]

Besides the "Screen Scraping" misunderstanding, I have never had a problem.

Can you elaborate on this?

[onlooker]

There is a search feature here, but I will make it easy for ya.

[notsosharp]

5dimes always pays out quickly. In my eyes this makes them a safe book.

[stikymess]

Best of the best, I don't trust their (or anybody else's) casino's though.

Yea stay out of the casino.

[fury]

Good book. Tony is passionate about the industry and not in it to make a quick buck, just don't piss him off

You are now chatting with 'Tony'
Tony: greetings
clark: hi
Tony: allow me a moment to pull up your account
clark: ok
Tony: ok, i need to confirm the amount you lost on the game in question
Tony: one moment
clark: $7231
clark: oh ok
Tony: i show $7029.50
clark: oh
clark: ok well thats possible
Tony: now its a matter if you want that amount, or you want to negotiate an amount that we agree upon to keep your account open
clark: I would like that amount, and you can bar me from ever playing video poker again if thats what you want
Tony: we will be closing your account
Tony: completely
clark: May I ask why?
clark: Nevermind
Tony: we honored all the winnings from other players other than the winnings derived from using robot players
clark: I was prepared to reason but I think id rather just get out of this industry
clark: You arent seriously suggesting I am being unfair are you
Tony: for what i deem recreational players, I felt the need to make them not feel "mishandled" in the situation
clark: You know I give you a lot of action and it fair
Tony: yes, actually i am
clark: its
Tony: but if you feel the need to press the issue, i'd rather handle this in a proper manner and be rid of you
clark: I understand
Tony: as if i had not given anyone anything, i would have been far better off
Tony: and you would be receiving nothing
Tony: as all other players that won playing this game had their winnings honored
Tony: and its clear you have no issue playing gave that were at or slightly above the 100% mark
clark: Not to disrespect, but I had and have no way of knowing that
Tony: i personally think you should have been happy with "half"
Tony: and your account open
Tony: but the choice lies in your hands
clark: And feel I shouldnt be excluded because I hit four deuces on 25 hands and got a lucky share of royal flushes
clark: I feel like i'm at a used car lot
Tony: the world is always up for negotiation
Tony: you asked what i thought "fair" was
Tony: and i told you
clark: Tony just give me the 7029.50
Tony: not a problem
Tony: how do you want your account settled?
clark: After looking at my sportsbook action you seriously dont want me there?
clark: What are my options?
Tony: someone who's willing to take $7029.50 in money they lost, when we honored all the "non-robot" winnings is just greedy
Tony: your options *************** payouts and cashier's checks fed-ex
Tony: the max on the cashier's checks is $3000 per check
clark: Cashier's checks will be fine
clark: Please just credit my account and I will make the withdrawals.
Tony: ok, one will be processed at least every monday until your balance is settled
Tony: your account will be blocked
clark: How about I take $7000 and u still take my sports action
Tony: so all transactions will be handled by accounting until your balance is zero
Tony: wow, giving up $29.50
Tony: how kind of you
clark: What do you propose
Tony: and i'm called the greedy one
Tony: nice one
Tony: "half"
clark: I didn't do anything wrong here
Tony: and neither did i
Tony: as you and all the others that were credited really have $0 coming to them
clark: You said you were paying back people, you said you would pay me back, and then said you wouldn't because I was ahead overall and a good player.
Tony: isn't that my choice of who i want to "take care of"
Tony: some people get better bonuses than others
Tony: so people get huge cash back awards
Tony: *some people
clark: We have a different definition for bonus then
Tony: i felt a need to make sure a long list of clients were taken care of
Tony: you were not on that list
clark: because I'm a winner
clark: *winning*
Tony: but it was mistakenly reported that "all" were going to get this cancellation of lost wagers
Tony: absolutely correct
Tony: you're "net ahead"
clark: what a sin
Tony: and its not $29.50 you're ahead
clark: I didn't sign up to be behind
Tony: and i'm not keeping you around if you want "it all"
clark: You're an interesting guy Tony
Tony: in the end, there will be only a few offshore outfits left, and you won't be playing at this one
clark: If you predict as well as you run a casino I wouldn't bet on it
clark: Sorry
clark: I shouldn't make this personal
Tony: i'm making it personal
clark: Yes Tony that's fine just pay me in checks
Tony: i didn't ask for your opinion
Tony: but if you want to go there, i think i'm slightly more qualified to know who's going to be left and who's not
Tony: but of course with all your forum knowledge, and incredible mathematical skills, you have to be far more qualified to make such predictions
Tony: account is closed
clark: $7029 plus $16,939 balance
Tony: credit will be done
Tony: glad to be rid of you
Tony: correct
Tony: i'd wish you luck, but since you're so smart, you don't need it
Tony: so "good day"
clark: Please don't make me have to pursue this more
clark: Ok Tony
clark: Later
Tony: your next check will be issued on monday, as you already had a check this week sent

[Podes]

I think 5 dimes bet platform was put together by a 5 year old

[barcelonafc]

[dikefale]

I would say top 5 safest US books.

Am I missing something? He gave you back over $7k?

Yeah, you are missing something. Reading comprehension must not be your strong point.

[BrickJames]

Good book. Tony is passionate about the industry and not in it to make a quick buck, just don't piss him off

Also not in it to make friends.
