5dimes done with US market Sept 25th *Merged Threads*

[ThaWoj]

Heritage is one.

BOL does too but watch the fine print..."Note: All Open Parlays must be closed within 7 days upon entering. Anything afterwards will be deleted."

Check the fine print anywhere you go.

I think at heritage these are called leverage plays? I've had a hard time finding wagers to use for this. For example on 5dimes I could literally use any bet, prop or whatever for an if/rif bet.

Heritage it seems I can only do the leverage play on a straight bet or a normal parlay.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

[ThaWoj]

They still honoring rewards, anyone know? I need to request cash back tomorrow from my last deposit.

[DontTailMe]

You don't seem to be familiar with the legal term "jurisdiction."

The U.S. doesn't necessarily need jurisdiction. They have lots of ways of influencing other nations to do their bidding, and if the people who run these sites step foot in or hold any assets in the US or cooperating nations, they can put the squeeze on them directly.

[Sam Losco]

suck on it you feggit

[johnnyvegas13]

I’m just gonna give it a day and live chat them again

Live chat is not showing me anything except my name and account number. I guess they're swamped.

[soobv]

I was just told my request for refunds was processed and they will put it in a que to process. Was told there is no eta for getting it processed but to check tomorrow sometime.

Of course they have other ways of trying to influence other nations, but the idea that legal companies in the US will shut down all the offshore sites is absurd.

They've been running for 20+ years and they've learned what they need to do in order to operate legally and avoid the long arm of the law. The countries they're based in now rely on the tax revenue and also rely on the jobs it brings so they're not going to give all that up because of a little pressure.

If anything, with the US heading toward legalization, it actually decreases the pressure because the US govt will be focusing on enforcement domestically rather than worrying about off-shore books.

For reals ???

Hank the US Treasury Dept can control the flow of funds around the world.

They pinched once, years ago, and hurt everyone. Then there was the Patriot Act.

The US let's them operate, period. Never forget that.

I just registered and checked out betanysports.eu and it seems to be the same exact website/format as 5dimes. Had I known I would have just transferred my pending wagers.

According to Wizard of Odds, it's a sister site of 5Dimes:

"BetAnySports is a full-service online betting site that was established in 2016 and serves as a sister site to VietBet, and 5Dimes, which serves a wide array of regions throughout the globe, including Asia and the United States."

Edit: See SBR explanation below

No, we're just talking about open parlays.

You can create the parlay and leave open spots for a future time. BOL doesn't let them hang more than a week, and that is messed up...lol...but good to be aware of for sure.

Heritage does have leverage options, but I'm honestly no expert in those trades. They are definitely different than the open parlay options.

It won't happen overnight, but as more states legalize sports betting, and the federal/state governments take in more and more tax revenue, you better believe it will happen eventually. The reason these non-tax paying sites have been tolerated for so long is because they were not competing with US business. You shouldn't expect that to continue.

5Dimes thread? What happened? I have been in the steam room at the country club.

paver more like the local pool boy giving u a handjob while the wifey was out shopping..

[Hugo de Naranja]

Would be extremely shady for them to freeroll us on NBA/NHL futures that are in progress. I have a bet on Celtics Championship (+3250) that has a bunch of equity over current odds.

"Any customer funds that cannot be delivered by 12am ET on September 30th, 2021 (13 months from now) will be deemed abandoned by the account holder."

so, in other words, they'll never be coming back.

Actually, that's not accurate. BetAnySports has existed for years and has been in the rating guide since 2008. The part about Asia is true though, that has been the focus along with ChineseBookie and Vietbet, who use a common software platform.

I just registered and checked out betanysports.eu and it seems to be the same exact website/format as 5dimes. Had I known I would have just transferred my pending wagers.

Correct. The lines are the same as software is common, but it's a separately owned operation. A lot of books share software and technology resources, hosting centers, etc. Interesting point about the lines. Do keep us posted of any feedback if you decide to give them a try.

email them at info@5dimes.eu

Agreed good idea, contact 5Dimes with any concerns. They are dealing with a large volume of queries right now but are available to field questions. Write mail@sportsbookreview.com as well so we can escalate any recurring feedback to 5Dimes management.

[ThaWoj]

Edit by SBR: Please see the post directly above.

So is betanysports equally safe and reliable? I see it's rated A-

[Wilfred]

Anybody know other books who offer ROLLING IF-BETS?

This. Was my favorite thing to do especially with live/half time betting with NFL.

Offshore sportsbook 5Dimes will freeze its US operations later this month, telling customers it plans to relaunch with a “fresh start.”
The Costa Rica-based outfit will stop taking bets from US customers at 12 am ET on September 21.
By early Monday evening, the following greeted customers in the US trying to log into the site:

They will allow you to transfer everything, including open pending futures, to BetAnySports.eu, for no fee. This appears to be a CRIS/Bookmaker situation, with 5Dimes wanting to clear their Books of Any US players, for some kind of US legal option in the future, but still having a US facing operation for their US clients "loosely" related to them.
Was on chat for about 2 hours, getting set up, but ultimately everything got done. I had 2 futures on the NFL, and one on the elections, that have been successfully transferred.
It appears BetAnySports is identical to 5Dimes. Only difference I see so far is that if you allow the reduced Juice option, which is the default option, you can't also have the free monthly Payout option, like you could at 5Dimes. That might suck for lots of people, but maybe they'll adjust that seeing all the new business they're suddenly about to get?

Edit: If you had reduced juice and 1 Free payout per month at 5Dinmes, they'll allow it at BetanySports also, according to chat.

[mrpapageorgio]

Has anyone successfully requested a refund for parlays with remaining open/pending future legs? I'm assuming that only the open/pending legs are voided and parlays are paid out with the winning legs. Can anyone confirm?

They refunded my SB future after reaching out to chat. Took 2 hours and they sent me an email notifying me they voided it. I put in the withdrawal request 10 minutes ago. Now just waiting for my Bitcoin.

[pologq]

Why wouldn't they have done this in July or August? It's suspicious they wait until the biggest deposit weekend of their year.

really good point

i might join them. how are the limits there? max limits on sportsbetting prime as well?

[booker777]

They say that this is just temporary for US bettors . Is that just smoke?

[KVB]

Interesting though here for sure. I would think, they would have if they could have.

Must be some kid of contract holding them back. Maybe this just came up.

A bunch of reasons but yeah, any more notice would probably have been good.

I don't post up there, they don't exactly let me fire away there, but almost everyone does.

If I were there, with a balance and pending bets, I'd probably just let them transfer everything to the new book, if that's what they are allowing.

Then go from there.

seems like smoke imo

or they are getting into the US market under a diff entity
