    Chat With 5Dimes: 5Dimes will not attend SBR Bash
    I was hoping to get a different answer during the chat. Maybe I was a little too nice, but it would be great if Tony made an appearance. Maybe he will post why he is not willing to show. I hope it is not that he fears for his safety. I know he plays the part of a tough guy online, but I dont think anyone who would attend would try and do harm to 5dimes. Come on Tony Step out and have a drink or two. Mingle.

    Please wait for a site operator to respond.
    You are now chatting with 'Fred'
    Fred: Hello. How may I assist you today?

    H: Quick question. I will be in Costa Rica in a few weeks. Can I post up in San Jose while I am there?

    Fred: you can use our services normally, you woud need to use the normal deposit options in that case
    Fred: being in Costa RIca would not chance our services in that case

    H: 5D is located in San Juan right?
    H: San Jose sorry
    H: hello

    Fred: hello sir
    Fred: 5dimes is located in San Jose, Costa Rica

    H: So while I am in San Jose can I stop by and drop off cash?

    Fred: please read above
    Fred: you can use our services normally, you woud need to use the normal deposit options in that case
    Fred: being in Costa RIca would not chance our services in that case
    Fred: so, that's pretty clear on that, you would need to use our nromal deposit options
    Fred: we would not accept a cash deposit on our offices for instance

    H: What if I wanted to stop in and meet the people I donate my cash to. Can I do that? I would love to meet Rommel and Tony and some of the other guys. Is that possible?
    H: I will just make my deposit as normal but would like to meet the crew.

    Fred: to fund your account you would need to use the nromal deposit options, cash is not accepted sir
    Fred: and thank you for your interest, the thing is we don't really perform tours on the premises
    Fred: but you may contact our staff for any kind if assistance you require regarding our services during your stay

    H: Wow....my book of choice would not be interested in meeting a customer?
    H: I know I am not big time, but still a customer. I am not looking for a tour.
    H: Blackie is making his crew available. Calvin Ayer is making a crew available, why wont 5 dimes and Tony?

    Fred: sorry, we're not interested in cash deposits or opening our office to the public

    H: I am not making a cash deposit. That has already been made clear.
    H: Still I would like to meet the people I give my money too. I have been a good loyal customer.
    H: Can I speak with Rommel
    H: ?

    Fred: let me check on his availablility at the time
    Fred: Just a moment please
    Fred: he is not here at this precise moment sir,
    Fred: but if you wish to get a hold of him I would recommend you to try again in 15mins

    H: OK
    H: Is 5Dimes doing any promotion with SBR for the SBR Bash?
    H: I know Legends and Bodog are both doing some types of sponsoring. I would think this would be a good promotion for 5dimes.
    H: Hello??
    H: Are you there Fred?

    Fred: certainly sir
    Fred: thank you for your patience
    Fred: I was going through your inquiry,

    H: Is Tony doing any kind of promotion or sponsoring at the SBR Bash?

    Fred: we won't be offering any promotions for that
    Fred: no, we are not doing any promotions

    H: Is Tony willing to Show up at the Marriott there in San Jose and Meet some of the SBR Posters?
    H: A show of kindness and good will for the gaming industry.

    Fred: it seems you missed a digit on your account number, can you please verify that

    H: xxxxxxxxx
    H: Sorry
    H: 5Dimes is my favorite book and I defend them on SBR all the time. I am just asking a couple of questions

    Fred: and i haven't been given any other details other than we are not doing any promotions

    H: I am getting ready to post up for football season and wanted to do so in person, but I understand not being able to accept cash there.
    H: Would Tony be open to showing up at the Marriott there in San Jose? I know I would love to meet him. He is a legend!!
    H: Rommel is a great asset to 5Dimes as well. It would be nice to meet him too.

    Fred: once again, that is unfortunately not possible sir

    H: Why is that?

    Fred: we will be more than glad to offer you our wagering services
    Fred: and provide all the assistance you need for that

    H: it's been about 15 minutes is Rommel available yet?
    H: I would like to speak with him if possible.

    Fred: while we appreciate your intentions, we're not interested in opening our office to the public
    Fred: let me check on him

    H: OK. No visit to the office. I understand.
    H: But the Marriott is not your office. I would think Tony might enjoy an open bar free food and a chance to meet some of his customers.
    H: I am a former business owner and loved the chance to speak with my customers.

    Fred: let me transfer you now, Rommel will continue the Chat
    Please wait while I transfer the chat to 'Rommel'.
    You are not currently in a chat session.
    You are not currently in a chat session.
    You are now chatting with 'Rommel'

    H: Rommel! Long time no chat.

    Rommel: Hello Mr. XXX, how may I assist you Sir?
    Rommel: yes Sir

    H: Hi, I was just speaking with Fred and was wonding if You or Tony had any interest in showing up at the SBR Bash there in San Jose and meeting some of your Customers. A meet and greet if you will.
    H: Tony is a legend and your one of the right hands so to speak.
    H: Would love to meet both of you.
    H: Free food and drinks at the Marriott.

    Rommel: We do appreciate your comments and thought Sir but like Fred explained to you we will not be attending the SBR Bash.

    H: Wow I am a little bummed to hear that. Is there any reason why not?

    Rommel: No reason in particularly Sir.

    H: I know Calvin Ayre is a sponsor there, but still you guys could show up.
    H: More than welcome.

    Rommel: We are not into public appearances Sir.
    Rommel: But again thank you for your good intentions.

    H: So that is the final word Tony, you or anyone else will not show up? Not even for goodwill towards your customers?
    H: Do you ever go out in San Jose? The Del Mar or another place you guys like to visit. We could meet up for a drink.
    H: Will be in town Wed through Monday.

    Rommel: That is correct that will be our final word Sir. Our goodwill towards our customers is demonstrated in our daily work or at least that's what I will like to think.

    H: You guys do great work I have to admit that!
    H: and it is appreciated!
    H: I will be posting up for football very soon.
    H: No Costa Rica book that is better!

    Rommel: That sounds good.
    Rommel: Thanks Sir

    H: I will be posting a copy of our chat on SBR forums if there is any change please have Tony stop in and let us know.

    Rommel: Sure you can do so, no problem with it.

    H: Thanks I didnt want to do so without 5dimes knowing.

    Rommel: ok

    H: If there are any changes I would love to meet you guys.
    H: I know a lot of other posters at SBR would as well. Tony is a "GOD" so to speak and an online legend!

    Rommel: Believe me there will be no change.

    H: It will be a great time, sorry 5dimes is being left out.

    Rommel: Anyone who wants to ask for Tony on livehelp can do so at any time

    H: I know he is always available!

    Rommel: Yes Sir always.

    H: Ask him to post on the SBR topic with the copy of this chat log.
    H: Wish he would change his mind though.
    H: but I understand why he wouldn't
    H: I guess.
    H: anyway I have used up enough of your time. I look forward to playing at 5d this fall. Thanks Rommel, your the best!
    Rommel: You are welcome Mr. XXX, looking forward to have you playing at 5Dimes.

          No but after reading his chat session I wouldn't want to deposit with them. Why can't you visit their offices?

            Not at all. I am a 5Dimes fan. Think it would be epic for "I AM GOD" Tony to show up. He is an online legend!

                  *shrug* I've never been inside. My brother-in-law got hired there, and said that Tony was a nice guy. Never met Tony, though. I've walked into sportsbooks' offices before plenty of times (to pickup a friend), and have never encountered armed guards.

                  Their office is maybe 15 minutes from downtown San Jose.

                    Do most books let random people (customers, not BIG TIMERS) just come in and browse around there offices?

                    And I could totally understand Tony/God not coming to the bash, No one gets more hatred than he does. Would you guys go to a place where you know people hate you and they'll be intoxicated and who knows what could happen? Any type of good come out of that circumstance?

                            Most of my chat was tongue in cheek. It would be great to meet Tony after all of the drama we have heard about him on here. That is all. Anyone that is a recreational player should have no ill will towards 5 dimes. There are disputes, but I have never read anything major enough to warrant fearing for safety. Well, other than bronxer. I wouldnt mess with that cat.

                                But you understand what I'm saying...There is no way he'd show up. Nothing good would come of it. By showing up, he wouldn't gain more customers and he won't be losing any.

                                The guy knows what gets posted here, he know's that there are alot of people that talk shit about him and how big of a prick he is. People know how good of a book 5 Dimes is, he doesn't need to promote it. He's already stated that he doesn't care when people leave his book, he'd rather boot them out than have to deal with them bothering him constantly...That means he's done well for himself.

                                It'd be nice to talk to the guy in person, but I would never expect to be allowed in their office to walk around/tour/jerk it in the bathroom.

                                  Hard to believe Tony would miss an opportunity to say $#%&^ to alot of SBR posters at once. On video tape would be priceless archive material.

                                    That is why it would be epic if he did show up. See tongue in cheek comment.

                                        Hi guys,

                                        No sportsbook is going to let posters just come and walk around their offices. These are businesses not petting zoos. The owners and GM's of most sportsbooks aren't really that keen on being photographed for obvious reasons - that shouldn't be so shocking.

                                            I give Tony his dues. Like Rommel said Tony is available on chat most any times. I have spoke with Tony on the phone a couple of times as well. Those times he was all business none of the junk you see posted about him.

                                                  You sound like a stalker, no offense...how many times were you going to ask?

                                                  In all honesty it makes sense why they wouldn't show up.

                                                    Hi harlee,

                                                    This isn't Las Vegas... you don't walk into an online sportsbook's offices to place bets or check out the day's lines on a shiny electronic board.

                                                    If customers could freely walk into a sportsbook's office, you'd see droves of broke degenerates claiming the casino is rigged, saying that their email wasn't replied to in 4 minutes and 11 seconds & that they'd like to parlay props. I do understand the interest of seeing the place you've been a loyal player at, so I'd recommend you check out the Sportsbook Review sportsbook photo tours section. =)

                                                      normal customers get something for their money, while most of the gamblers don't ---> lots of angry gamblers ---> book owners not wanting to meet angry customers

Anyone that is a recreational player should have no ill will towards 5 dimes. There are disputes, but I have never read anything major enough to warrant fearing for safety. Well, other than bronxer. I wouldnt mess with that cat.
                                                              I take that back. Austin103 was pretty pissed at 5dimes.
