    It's old news I guess but I didn't know about it.


    5Dimes founder “Tony” Creighton was killed by kidnappers. His widow, Laura Varela, made peace with investigators and wants to bring the business to the U.S., legally this time.


    His wife is pretty smokin BTW. Hi if ur reading, Laura

    Pretty sure she set him up to be killed. You don’t get kidnapped being in his position without it being an inside job

        I stopped playing at 5Dimes years ago when I had $50 deducted from my account on an accounting error, guess what? An error 5Dimes committed. WTH? You make a mistake and you charge me for your mistake? You can’t be serious. I went up the chain to Tony. He said there was nothing he could do. I used to have at least $10k there on average and your going to nickle and dime me? I stopped playing there on principal. Well just a few months ago, I get a letter in the mail with a check for about $600 that I had left over in the account. I had forgotten about it. Good deal on their part. So maybe they are going legit.

          Shocking they made it right in the end sounds like. Remember when Sean, I mean “Tony” sent BeantownJim a rubber check for $2500 and made it seem like it was Jim’s fault? Pretty sure SBR deleted that thread. He eventually got paid with some smug ass attitude from Sean, I mean “Tony” I had a similar problem to you. They graded my bet but shorted me like $160. Had to deal with that raging bitch Becky, eventually got Sean, I mean “Tony” and they basically acted like it was my fault for winning a bet. Took them about a week to correct. I never played there again. That was way back in 2011.

            It was definitely Tony’s way or the highway. I remember the BeantownJim fiasco. That was another reason I stopped playing there. If it could happen to him, it could happen to you and it happened to me. $50 lousy bucks mind you.

              Especially with the balances you kept there. Obviously you won. He took that shit personal.

                Oh man beantownjim was the man

                He would grin when he would win. Don’t know what he did when he got a bounced check. I think that stuff was happening for awhile because the processors kept getting busted or something.

                                    BetJamaica stole my money when they went under. 5Dimes sent me my money back. That's pretty outstanding.

                                              Pretty good deal. They probably could have just ran off with the money. Major props to 5Dimes from me.

                                                But dudes want to marry and lose half their wealth eventually (or life) because "that's what you do"

                                                Quick being a lonely f+g, juggle multi broads/fwbs, keep your money and get a puppy.

                                                Beta men need "a warm body" in their bed every night.

                                                Step your game up.

                                                  You'll save money with the "right" woman.

                                                  Juggling women can get very expensive.

                                                    Tony was not a hansom man and probably screwed around alot. Sure she was the culprit that set him up. Follow the money trail.

Had to escalate to him once when regular customer service just wouldn't listen to me when telling them they graded a bet wrong and I should not have won. He snapped in chat with me until he realized I wasn't looking for money but instead to have it deleted so balance would be correct. He apologized for snapping and gave me any 2 rewards I wanted on my account so I always had the reduced juice and 7th and 8th on the house rewards. His book had everything a degenerate could ever want.
