    BetIsland and Rebatewager pay the same day which is hard to rival right now
    Coach, I think F-Head is still sore about Tony's definition of his Video Poker payouts. Nevermind how the rest of the industry labels their payouts. What counts is how Tony defines his payouts.

    US player here, currently on Heritage. What other books are available for us Stateside players?

    Yeah fees suck but it's a part of the business. Consider it a rebate on thier losses.

    Hey, if I grow my roll enough take out 1g and they charge me $80 to do it. I'm OK with that. You want it free, move to Vegas.

    Contact your local representative and say you want sportsbetting legalized just like in Vegas.

    Can't speak for other shenanigans at 5Dimes but while they may shave a little from your roll, at least they ain't welching.

    5dimes is A+, no problem so far. Yes, they lower your limit sometimes but I am not betting 1000$ a unit so it is all good. Tony is kinda jerk sometimes but CS is great

    dont put a blame on your self, called yearly monday morning to take the money out before 7 or 8 or when ever the fyck they start, was told to call later because cashiers closed, (don't have no problem picking up wastern union at 1o'clock in the morning from me thou huh 5d?) called after 9 two minutes ring no answear, call half hour later no answear, call at least 5 more times till i got thru, was on hold with them for at least 30 minutes maybe 45( was told they were procesing it and just wait) ok, finally clerk comes back to tell me they reached the payout limit for the day call back tomorrow, really, was very happy with them until maybe a year ago, looks like they been in a freefall and cant seems to recover, and boyscout payout limits with high fees, i'm looking for another out

    Hey dogface, said NOT A+.................


    Some of you seriously need to read the sports and industry forum, OTHER forums, and possibly talking firsthand to other players with 5 dimes.................5d is not as good as once was, plain and simple...............and I for one can confirm this firsthand having been with them for years and years.

    Payouts(for whatever reason) not near as good, and customer service has gone from exceptionally good to average at the very best.

    They are the best overall book for US players, so if you grade on a curve they deserve the A+. the real question should be why are these other books graded so high.

    SOMEWHAT fair enough............they are definetly still a top five out at worst for the vast majority of U.S. punters that post up.

    Perhaps no book in the world should be graded A+, especially in this day and age...............A tops for all.

    Wow, I kinda feel for Americans.

    Because I can play at Pinnacle I seriously sit back and watch these horror story threads not getting paid, or extra fees and I realize how lucky I am.

    My beef is these guys scammed me to put money in Betanysports, only to force me to transfer it into 5dimes later. There's a reason why I'm not playing at this clown book anymore.

    I read a lot of complaints on here about 5dimes but most don't pan out to have any validity. I've never had a problem with them. They have plenty of deposit and withdrawal options and have always paid me. Every book has some complaints. And some people just seem to complain about everything. Take it all with a grain of salt and judge them for yourself, not based off shit you read here.

    5DIMES has been an A+ book for me. If not for you, play elsewhere.

    Euro books can afford to do all the bells and whistles crap because the Euro players couldnt pick a winner to save their own life. I swear they rocks between their ears over there.

    You're kidding, right?

    The answer is one word that begins with the 'a' and ends in the letter 'a'

    Scroll to the top of the page, what do you see?

    Good god David! You have 6 trophies for top sportsbook score. Does that translate into the real world with offshore books too?
