looking to post up at a book...

[onthewhat]

i want to post up at bet jam but do they not have moneygram or **? i'm not sure how i could deposit a few grand on there.

anyways i would like a site that would cover my deposit fees and give me a good/decent bonus, and offers a free cashout per month.

[pat venditto]

5dimes

[topgame85]

They do have ** and ** and they give you a debit card you can use for withdrawals if you bet more than 1k a month only costs $5 bucks per withdrawal

[onthewhat]

i was looking on bet jams deposit page and didnt see anything about ** or **.

would you recommend 5 dimes or bet jam, or should i go half and half and use both?

[madmaxx]

Yes they do, minimum is $100, max $5k for express money transfer (**/**) i think they cover fees if its over $200. 20% sign up bonus, 10% reload, you must ask for all bonuses within 24 hours.

[pat venditto]

I would say do half and half. both good books. no experience with jamaica yet though.

[onthewhat]

oh ok is express money transfer just ** or **....i get it thanks

so do you all rec 5dimes or bet jam?

[topgame85]

Precisely its called expree money transfer if your dropping in few dimes you may be better with "The Greek" though

[topgame85]

I like betjam/greek over 5 dimes not a fan of 5 dimes

so do you all rec 5dimes or bet jam?

have not used 5dimes but hear their customer service could use a little improvement. bet jams (or greeks for that matter) is great, however their CS is pretty to the point on the phone, no chit chat just gets it done.

[bigboydan]

Yes, BetJam does accept ** and ** both sir.

Below is something I wrote for another poster last week about what they have to offer, as well as a few dislikes I have about them as well.

BetJamaica (SBR Rated A+), part of the TheGreek family of books and use the ASI software, which I feel is pretty nice overall.

BetJamaica (SBR Rated A+) is more of a recreation book and does offer nice reload bonuses (10 or 20% reup bonuses/$500 max, with a 4x's rollover), however since they are a recreational book they could cut your limits if your chasing steam and or other things of that nature.

Their banking options for U.S. players have actually improved some over the last few months, because they are now offering Echecks (which is very nice feature these days, but info required to be faxed). Not to mention they do free book-to-book transfers ($500 min) with: TheGreek, Legendz, Pinnacle, 5Dimes and BookMaker and soon Wsex (note: Bookmaker will charge you incoming fees).

The payouts are very prompt really for overnight checks (3-5 business days), and the withdraw fees are actually quite reasonable if you exceed the 1 free payout via fedex per calender month (min. $200/$35 flat fee if you exceed the freebie).

Another thing I should make mention of since we have seen some DDos attacks this weekend is that they have a couple of mirror sites for emergency purposes.

BetJamaica:

http://mirror2.betjm.com

They also are now offering an online chat service which is always a nice feature

The lines they offer are very competitive with most other books IMO, and the use a dimeline up to -190 in baseball. Which I feel is great!

Here is the baseball vig breakdown and betting options they will be offering this 2008 baseball season.


.10 up to -190
.13 up to -195
.15 up to -200
.18 up to -205
.20 up to -240
.25 up to -250
.30 up to -280
.35 up to -290
.40 up to -300
.45 up to -310
.50 up to -320


Overnight Lines: Yes
Reverse Run Lines: Yes
5-inning lines: Yes
Reduced Juice Totals: No
Grand Salami Totals: Yes
Team Totals: No

The drawbacks I do have about [iSBRFORUM]BetJamaica[/iSBRFORUM] is they only accept U.S. currencies

[onthewhat]

i like the greeks bonus...on 5 dimes it only says new account bonus if you deposit via e gold or click2pay...they dont give bonuses other than that?

[EaglesPhan36]

I haven't played at BetJam in awhile, but I believe that after you play there for a bit, you can apply for what amounts to a BetJam ATM card where you can withdrawal your funds in $500 increments. Again last time I used them was several months ago, so that could have changed. Was a great payout option though I thought.

you cant go wrong with betjam,or 5 dimes.i deposit 5,000,and more each year.just remember you will have to do deposit a bunch of times,but remember the book always picks up the cost.

[frostno98]

Try out looselines.com. They have various deposit options including a New click and buy method, if your having a hard time depositing via CC or debit card.

[BurtRapp]

onthewhat. get my e-mail from the mods. I may be able to get you an even sweeter deal at the greek.

[DIF]

Im not sure what book you used before but stick with the A-graded

Intertops got good bonus and free payouts. check them. Vanilla lines but if you sharp you can manage that.

[LT Profits]

5 Dimes is not a bonus book. Who needs bonuses when you have overnight nickel lines in bases, and more alternate lines than any other book?

[LT Profits]

The Greek is horrible for baseball though.

I dep'd about $1100 a month and a half ago with 5d and I'm set to clear a $220 bonus......looks like it will be tonight when my wagers clear

Right about the lines, some really great offerings

With everyone suggesting to you to play at 5Dimes in this thread, I thought I'd provide some info about them as well.



5Dimes (SBR Rated A) is the way to go for baseball if your a recreational player that bets nickels, and haven't had your limits cut. But just watch out for those delays.

They have no outstanding complaints or processing issues levied against them at this time. Not to mention they offer some pretty good payment solutions for U.S. players (Echecks most notably 300 max./14 day hold). Plus they offer one free fedex payout per month that you will usually get within about 3-5 business days.

The bonus they offer for new customers is a 50% free play with a 5x rollover, and 20% reload bonuses.

They use the ASI software (Which is nice IMO), not to mention the fact that [iSBRFORUM]5Dimes[/iSBRFORUM] has a couple of mirror sites, which helps during the down times:

propbet.com
www2.5dimes.com

Did I mention nickel overnight lines (till 8am est), and offers a lot of prop wagering options.

Here is the vig breakdowns 5Dimes, and a few of the other wagering options they have to offer:

.10 up to -176
.15 up to -201
.20 up to -266
.25 up to -280
.30 up to -346
.35 up to -361
.40 up to -386
.45 up to -421
.50 up to -461

Overnight Lines: Yes *See Nickel Lines Chart Below
Reverse Run Lines: Yes
5-inning lines: Yes: RLs, MLs & Totals
Reduced Juice Totals: Yes**
Reduced Juice RLs: Yes**
Grand Salami Totals: Yes
Team Totals: Yes


Overnight Nickel Lines Chart

.05 up to -162
.06 up to -165
.07 up to -193
.08 up to -196
.09 up to -198
.10 up to -251
.11 up to -253
.12 up to -255
.13 up to -257
.14 up to -258
.15 up to -266
.16 up to -270
.17 up to -273
.18 up to -276
.19 up to -278
.20 up to -310


The one complaint I do have against them though. I don't like the fact that they always have problems grading their prop bets. They are notorious for mis-grading those thing and their rules for those seem to have a very gray area IMHOO.
