    5dimes is mostly tailored to North American market, that mostly doesn't know nor cares enough about Euro hockey or cricket.

    As for the layout - this is not a web design site...the less your have on the page - the faster it loads.
    The last thing you want to have is something like at Bovada, that over invested into the Flash design (that eats RAM like crazy and slows down your browser), to hide the fact that their lines still blow.

    Three things you need to look for, when you come to the gambling site:
    1. Is the site secure?
    2. Do they have an easy to navigate menu?
    3. How fast they put out the opening lines and what kind of juice they charge?


    ps: you need to give us more details about that 5D's fraud

    I just can't deal with the fact that the site goes down with like 5 minutes still left to bet before a certain time, or game. Some of us wait until the few minutes beforehand to make up our mind. I've lost so much not being able to bet a game, then betting on some other shit that loses.

    I use them for about 75% of my wagers. They have always been great.

    Three things I don't like;

    1. Low limits

    2. Always tough speeds before big games and at high traffic times. Like Cuse I find that frustrating.

    3. A few times I have had all of my money tied up and wanted to throw an extra $500 in some some in-game and their processors always seem to be messed up.

    I still use them though and consider them a top 3 book.

    Their limits do suck too, yeah. Though, when the line moves you can keep adding. But, some games I wanna bet big beforehand, and it doesn't move which costs me money. They are number 1 in making sure they don't get slaughtered.

    Not convenient to the West Coast. You have like a 4 hour window to request pay-out. All of which I am sleeping

    They will say - "Write us back on this day."

    How about I put that pay-out request in for next week now?

    They say you are good to go, just request during that 4 hour window.

    So you request during the appropriate time, then they say your docs are not in order..."you said I was good to go."

    Basically bush league maneuvers to get you to bet an extra two weeks with those funds and lose.

    They are unnecessarily rude. Very Unnecessarily.

    They will free-roll you on a bad line. I have been betting there for years, I know better - and really would never take a shot, but if it happens by accident. Bad line will be cancelled.

    I accidentally took the screwy side of the line because I wasn't paying attention. Do you think they refunded me? Hell No, but I am sure they cancelled all the wagers of those on the other side.

    You can get a payout at any time, the 4 hour window is for a free payout.

    Your complaints are standard practice for any book. If your info changes or it's been a bit since you withdrew, you have to update shit.

    It used to annoy me too, but it's just how it is.

    So they are not a good book because you have to wait until 4 for a free payout? And SBR sucks their rooster?

    And the fact that they still have the best betting selection at the lowest prices doesn't figure in? I would have withdraws if I had to bet baseball at a -110 book. I had an issue with them when they first started up with BTC and would only let me withdraw what I had deposited via BTC. But got past it. You can't beat them in so many areas like MMA, Daytona coming up, overnight bases ect. How they could be excluded from being in the top books would be a better question.

    Payouts aren't usually a problem. Also, once one of the workers told me that you could change the free payout window to another day/time of your choosing that's more convenient - but that you only get to change it once. Not sure if this is still a thing?

    5Dimes still my preferred book, I think it's a no brainer really. But better have your bets in early on football saturdays and Sundays or have a deep list of mirror sites because anywhere inside of 30 minutes before the games kick off you might not be able to get the bet in. Even mirrors will not work a lot of times. It got really bad this past season, but that would really be the only thing I would give them a strong negative mark on.

    But that also started happening some at heritage on Sundays before the early games kicked off so it's not exclusive to them. Was particularly brutal with 5D though.

    I'll continue to use them as my top book. You can't beat their lines, selection, and I've never had any payout issues with them. Just wish they could upgrade the server or software or whatever to deal with the football traffic during peak times.

    5 dimes is my top book.. They don't give out alot of freebies, bonuses, etc.. Still the best book around..

    For MMA it can't be beat.. Futures and props are tops..
