    5Dimes Replacement Book

    If you look at my previous posts I had a love hate relationship with 5Dimes.

    The biggest issue I had with 5Dimes was the fact that they had 5 Different Live Betting Sports books and the one that had the best lines never penetrating worked and the one that had no line always worked and it made no sense to me why they didn't just load all the games onto the book that always worked and ditched the other 4 options.

    It almost felt like if you were smart enough you could run a betting arbitrage scheme off 5Dimes 5 Different Books.

    Which makes no penetrating sense and is just bad business.

    Having said that:

    Which sports book has the plethora of Boxing lines, Lets you bet on an ML regardless of how heavily the team is favored as well as open rolling parlays. One other nice thing would be to have a nice live betting suite.

    I also want the sports book to be for people that play and win competitively.

    I am trying to stay away from books like Bovada.

    Why stay away from bovada?

    I think the most important thing weve learned over the last few years is that books that dont have a decent poker room usually end up going bust

    I started sports betting with Bovada.

    They got really mad when I deposited $50 and turned it into almost $6K in 2 weeks betting on Philipino Women's Basketball Quarter Unders.

    They were probably mad that's all I bet on as well.
    Said I wasn't a recreational gambler and limited my bets to $5.

    Its the same thing with Betting Women's Soccer Unders. They have to make twice the # of passes the men make. The more passes the higher chance of a turnover. They also have to get closer to the goal which means more dribbling, more chance of a turnover as well. Plus they are slow.


    I made quite a bit of Money on that NWSL Women's Tournament recently. They had 6 games where they scored 1 goal total IN 6 GAMES.

    I have always said you wanna find lines that are tight with huge talent gaps. Women's sports in my opinion is where the big money is because the lines are so tight but the talent gap is large. A lot of times you will have a pickem line not even be close.

    Those sports books used to set those totals at 40.5.

    They would score like 122 points.

    It wasn't even close.

    And here I am betting on lines that lines makers literally predict, when the money is on the lack of stamina and talent of women

    I stopped betting NBA and NFL a long time ago.

    If you all want a fun little stat to research.

    Take a look at how many games in the MLB they score after the 6th inning.

    In the MLB betting the over after the 6th inning will make you rich.

    They bring in some dude they are paying $500,000 and he blows the game. Check out the #'s I am serious.

    Every MLB game yesterday had a run scored after the 6th inning that was a full 9 inning game.

    Even 1/2 of the 7 inning games had a run scored after the 6th inning.

    I think its going to be hard to find something like 5Dimes Live Betting Ultra and Sports Betting Prime as far as all the alternate lines.

    I just logged into my Betonline account and their live betting is super basic and not very many lines.

    For what it’s worth I’m at heritage again since the Dimes shutdown fiasco. They seem to have decent live betting, I was following along during the Cowboys Rams game, seemed to have a lot of options. Now for what you’re looking for, you’re gonna have to just get into some of these places and poke around haha, I don’t think many posters are up on the next best place for women’s Lithuanian live soccer totals

    With Heritage?

    Jesus Christ. 5Dimes might have been the best by far.


    I personally don't think I will ever find a book as legit as 5Dimes. I mean a rolling 25 team open parlay?

    I don't think it's all states with legal betting that's out, I know most offshores left NJ because of how hard NJ was coming after the offshore books once they went legal so they figured it wasn't worth servicing that market anymore.
