Bodog has a nice live betting system, also player points for poker...5dimes a little quicker payout....
man im confused on who to go with.

I would do Bodog because there is always someone ready to play very quick action from the time you sit down vs 5dimes poker .I see very few people playing 5dimes poker software except for the exception of the weekly $7500 50+5 tourney which I play every week.

Bodog is pretty quick with payouts these days. I got a 5 figure bank wire in about 4 days last week and their checks usually take around the same. And their poker room is softsoftsoft. Their sports betting lines are also marginally softer than 5Dimes.

I would agree their players are a bit softer, also. However, there is no rakeback. You're probably better off playing another poker site.

BoDog sucks hind tit for sports, bad lines and few betting options. Poker is juicy though.
5Dimes is a class shop.

Bodog is a must for members of SBR or you may be left out of some special tournaments.

Bodog, not even close. 5 dimes poker is a joke. Maybe 10 players max on there at peak hours lol. On Bodog there is always action at any game type. Plus the Bodog software is much better.
If 5dimes ever gets its player volume up, then there may be something to debate.

You're kidding...only 10 players max? It's no wonder I have never heard of 5 dimes poker!

If you want rakeback on 5dimes PM me for the site..You would have to play at True Poker same Network but no sportsbook so keep your sports and Poker BR seperate but same soft players + Rakeback
Traffic is usually around 500 players at night, if you play during the day or like to play a ton of tables Bodog is better, but the play at TP/5dimes is way softer=easy money at least for me my winrate is much higher. Only downside, I see a lot of complaining about suckouts on this forum, bad players suck out more since they get their money in bad so you'll have more bad beats on 5 dimes but you'll also make more money. Your profit in poker comes from your opponents mistakes, which is why I love True Poker, software sucks but crappy players make up for that.
If you mainly bet sports I'd still stick with 5 dimes lower juice over bodog and forget rakeback, if you generate even $100 a month in rake get rakeback. IF you play a ton of tables go with Bodog.
Forgot to mention True Poker cashouts are same as Chris/Bookmaker so no worries getting paid.

I would chose Bodog against 5Dimes, their software is better, more MTT, more players in cash games etc ... + I don't really like 3D poker ...

Poker, BoDog is superior to 5Dimes. And by the way they pay just as fast these days as 5Dimes or anyone else depending on how and where you look to be paid.
