Still not sure how this book is rated A+, but here is my personal experience of last 5 sessions with 5dimes live dealer BJ, take from it what you want. Out of playing there at least 10 separate occasions, and about 75 hands, I noticed a trend. First off on 1st session dealer only busted one time out of twenty hands (no exageration). Second session dealer hit to 21 three times in a row, and hit to a twenty on 4th hand and got a BJ 5th hand. 3rd Session Dealer went 12 straight hands without busting and received a whole card of either 10 or ace 9 times in arow. 4th session a player at the table tried to double a 6,5 versus dealer 5 and they wouldn't let him hit, well the dealer ended up getting a 10 and a 6 for another 21 costing everybody at the table. When everybody threw a fit, the pitboss comes on and says "sorry your time ran up, everybody loses." 5th session, dealer goes 11 hands without busting and on 12th hand, dealer is about to bust, but the bust card mysteriously won't scan, so it is thrown out. Could this all be coincidence? Maybe, but I doubt it. What do you think?

        Im not sure how they do it but i feel the same way. Ive played in the live dealer 6 times and lost every time. Out of all 6 sessions, Ive probably won approx 20% of the hands played (when in fact true BJ odds are like 47%). The last time i logged in and played, I played 12 hands. I lost 11 of them (2 of them were double downs) and pushed on a 21 on the other. I have absolutely no clue how they could cheat in a live game but have no doubts that this is happening. I would warn others to stay away as well.

          A+ books should be held to higher standards. I would be pissed. I could see this coming from low rated books. A+ means perfect.

                Online casinos are just a hole, you will never come out ahead in them.

                  This issue was fix a long time ago. The player got paid after the owner of 5dimes reviewed the tapes. Hope you all know someone bumped this up before you go into any speculation.

                      If you play long enough any casino will take your money in the end and you can count on that.

                          I've said this for a long time. These A+ books don't need to run crooked BJ games to give the house an even greater advantage than they already enjoy. Let the players play....and I don't want to hear any book talking to me about the "honesty and integrity and documentation of the software"s BS. They know it and you know it. You can't beat the game yet for some reason we all keep trying. Maybe we're thinking "This time it will be different". It never is.

                          Since 5Dimes was mentioned I will say that IMO they rate a solid No. 1 as far as the sportsbook goes. They pay on time and the lines are good for recreational players.

                          But avoid the BJ table if you can..be it live dealers or otherwise..you'll be in for a major ass kicking.

                            pokerplayer22. I don't know how the hell they do it either. I thought since it was live dealer, that it would be legit, but they somehow manage to rig it. Looks so legit, and that is why it has to be one of the best hustles in online casino history. So sad.

                                    I asked them abut the live casino. It is run by a third party indepedent of 5dimes. I dont think 5dimes cheats in any way. But I would recommend playing their online casino before I would play the live one. I dont not like their live casino at all. I find their online casino seems alot better.

                                        your lies are discrediting the legitimate complaints. i.e. "they dont let you win" if you win, they credit your account, if you try to cash out- they pay you.

                                        the issue is sheisty practices like not scanning cards properly and reshuffling a fairly full deck after you've placed your bet and video lagging for no apparent reason.

                                            I am actually disgusted that my personal convo with posted here, that's pathetic.
                                            I think the way you spoke and harrassed that poor Becky girl was more pathetic! She just wanted to go to bed!

                                                  They have a few complaints, but that's partially due to a larger user base. What's important is how they are resolved.

                                                      I stay away from online casinos. Having said that, in my opinion 5Dimes is the best book( that accepys US players) for sportsbetting/racebook, by far. Very professional book, a lot ways to make money.

                                                            Its a known fact in the casino industry that cards cannot be backed up.
