      Talking about whoever took him, BMWs in Costa Rica odd, is that odd or no?

      Not sure why a Cartel connect would care/risk their operation for 1 million though, unless they believed they could get much more
      There's some low life Columbian street coke dealers roaming around.

          I see 5 Dimes has been removed from the SBR Best Books List.

          That tells me this is serious.

          5 Dimes always paid me promptly. A couple of days with Bitcoin; and the Fed Ex check always
          arrived.
          (The check never bounced)
          I had Tony as a New Yorker and was surprised to see he was a
          Morgantown native.
          Overnight Nickle lines were the best.
          Hope these creeps release the guy; and he gets back in
          business.

          Godspeed to 5 Dimes Tony.

                - He probably doesn't have security with him because after being there so long, he figured he didn't need it. It's CR, not Afghanistan.

                - Also sounds like an elaborate plan to shut the book down and run away with the money. Seems short-sighted, 5d makes plenty, but can't rule it out.

                - Hope it does get resolved, even though it's looking grim. I've had money in there for almost 10yrs now.

                            It could be uncle sam trying to shake down books that cater to americans.....with all the legalizations of betting happening, they don't want degenerates giving away money to offshore.

                              I’ve never played there, but if I did and had money in an account I wouldn’t be worried. I don’t think the goal is to steal players funds and walk away, I think they’re looking to close down but everyone will be paid.

                                      that'd be stupid as hell to close it down. I loved all their options other books don't have.

                                        They should make a movie about this and have Tony himself star in it.

                                          I put in a bitcoin payout request this morning at 5dimes for all my funds. Its now in my wallet. I sure hope Tony is alive, and also hope that 5dimes keeps on rockin. They are by far IMO the best book on the planet. I've been with them for a long time....since around 1999. Back to Tony, while again I hope he's alive, it does not sound good. I would think that he would probably want someone to put a line out on it. Tony, wherever you are, thank you for what you've done for the industry.

                                                Its no secret that something has happened with Tony. Have you heard anything more and is 5dimes going to remain open for business?

                                                  I've got to imagine there is a brain trust at 5 Dimes that can competently work the operations there in light of this tragedy. Has there been a legitimate complaint or noticeable slow down on any aspect of their operation since that September date (besides them paying BTC payouts 1-2 days as opposed to other big operations hours to do it)? Think it's odd that 5 Dimes is yanked from Best Sportsbook list. I wouldn't if there was a written reason/update on everything from SBR. It's been almost 24 hours since this news became mainstream.

                                                      Diaro Extra has what it says is a photo of the vehicle driven by 5Dimes owner Sean "Tony" Creighton intentionally crashed into a gate. Creighton was reported kidnapped on September 25.


                                                      Said the car crashed intentionally. Odd
                                                      Pic of the car as well...
                                                      MMA fighter is behind the attacks according to that article

Has there been a legitimate complaint or noticeable slow down on any aspect of their operation since that September date (besides them paying BTC payouts 1-2 days as opposed to other big operations hours to do it)? Think it's odd that 5 Dimes is yanked from Best Sportsbook list. I wouldn't if there was a written reason/update on everything from SBR. It's been almost 24 hours since this news became mainstream.
                                                        Company is not in "Tony's" name. I feel that he is one member of their management team, and that business can operate as usual without him.

                                                          Seems odd that he has been operating in Costa Rica for 20 years and now that legalization happens in U.S. BOOM he is gone.

I sure hope Tony is alive, and also hope that 5dimes keeps on rockin. They are by far IMO the best book on the planet. I've been with them for a long time....since around 1999. Back to Tony, while again I hope he's alive, it does not sound good. I would think that he would probably want someone to put a line out on it. Tony, wherever you are, thank you for what you've done for the industry.
                                                                  You requested a bitcoin payout from 5dimes in the morning and was paid by afternoon? whats your secret? I requested a payout yesterday (just 1/4th of my balance) and havent gotten anything yet. i expect this to take 48 hours+ like it always does.
