    No it wouldn’t even dent SBR $500 million corporation go down all the time across world

    Nobody guarantee funds

    USA bank guarantee funds 250,000

    Las Vegas sportsbooks do not guarantee funds if they go belly up you lose

    Stocks and mutual funds or your own risk and 500 times bigger than fivedimes And fail a lot And a highly rated from any website


    You make your own decisions SBR is a rating service like many other rating services across world

    There are no guarantees
    Be smart

      Soft spoken even toned guy he is not!

      A guy who will throw down the hammer on
      you at any given moment if he percieves
      any sort of foul play real or not.

      Get rude or loud with his staff you may be
      gone.. but with your full account paid.

      Like him or not..him and his brand outlasted
      just about every other bookmaker to open
      up shop in the Jungle..

      Guy certainly did what he did as good as anybody else.

      We’ll maybe not as good as Calvin.

        I respect what your saying.. This isn't a gun rights or diversity debate. It's whether or not the wild wild west mentality that many Americans have about other countries is justified. The fear is media driven. Every city in the world has bad areas. Would you walk down back streets of Chicago or Detroit in the middle of the night. If your answer is no which it should be then don't do it in Cancun, San Jose, or any other Vacation destination. It is common sense. I have a home in San Salvador-El Salvador. After visiting there for over 20 years I have never had a whiff or trouble. I also do not go to the gang infested areas. Common Sense. I am not saying trouble can not find me, what I am saying is it can find me just as easily at my home in the US as it can at my home in San Salvador. What happened to Tony is he was targeted. It is a one off issue and is not indicative of a larger problem.

Even worse, some people seem to get their rocks off by posting repeatedly in several threads the same thing in multiple posts and that's going to get people turfed from here. I was just trying to give a heads up because several have already been put on either temporary or permanent bans because they've been warned and still want to attempt to get that 2 seconds of e-glory if anyone even sees it before the post is deleted. Pro or non Pro, doesn't matter how long someone has been here or what their interactions may have been with Tony... just thought I'd give the heads up before guys keep crying they got banned because they ignored my first warning in here
          Sorry, Just saw this after I finished my latest post. If you feel its political please delete it as I can not find a way to do it myself. Will refrain from doing it in the future.

              It's just not adding up. I live here in CR. I listen to the media here, and I know people who are quite connected in the sportsbook industry here. This is not what it seems, at all. Absolutely, it sucks what has allegedly happened, but this stinks to high heaven. Anybody that's involved with the sportsbook industry down here that sits back and really looks at what they know, knows that something ain't right about this at all.

                Is CR police qualified to do this type of negotiation with kidnappers? Could they locate him from his iphone, apple watch, fitbit, car navigation of the Porche, etc? How are the kidnappers making contact with the family? I hope he is found soon but maybe the FBI needs to get involved since he is a US citizen. They have the technology to find the kidnappers and bring them to justice.

                  Such a sad thing, I have dealt with Tony a few times at 5dimes. He has always been great with me, I hope this ends good.

                          They've already found the laptop that was used.

                              Response via live chat...asking where tony is......Unfortunately we don't know. Despite recent news, 5Dimes Group board of directors and its over 300 employees would like to reassure its clientele the fundamentals of 5Dimes Group operating model remains unchanged.
                              We continue striving to deliver the best gambling experience to our customers, always aiming to innovate in the industry with more and better betting options to choose from.
                              Our thoughts and prayers join the rest of the online gambling industry for Tony's safe return to his family.

                                Intrigued by the post. Curious where you are going with it or what angle you think is at work here because I agree, this is weird. Plenty of big money bookies in CR and this is the first I am aware of where someone got kidnapped? And Tony didn't carry a weapon?

                                I do hope he is all good for him and his family. We can all bicker about bets, money or his attitude but this is someone's life and whether you liked the guy or not, there are people who love him that are beside themselves every hour of every day.
                                Today is the tomorrow we worried about yesterday.

                                  Well if it does not add up a good thing I would believe

                                  Maybe law enforcement was after him who really knows

                                  If wife in on it she will cave in real quick because of all legal pressure

None of us had a clue what had happened and everything was business as usual. Think about that you brainiacs who figure you can predict the date of death of a sportsbook.

                                      Actually, I wouldn't expect the floor to fall out in the immediate.

                                      It would be the long-term that would worry me. In the first few weeks after something like this, I would expect those in charge would go the extra mile to guarantee business as usual.

                                      What would concern me is that if this was a horrible tragedy, those that remain would probably have second thoughts at remaining there, and that is when the problems begin.

                                      I hope the guy is alright. No one wants this, but selling a narrative that "hey it happened 3 weeks ago and you dumbasses didn't know better" is not all that helpful.

                                      And, let's not be naive either. SBR has a vested interest in 5 Dimes continued well being.

                                        If everything is fine why would people warning others bother you?? This forum is for sportsbooks/industry news discussion I thought ; good or bad.

                                        Many bettors have been burned in the past due to various circumstances that spiral out of control extremely fast. After SBR buried their head in the sand with Betislands you can't expect people to sit idly by based on a statement. There is a huge difference to being #20 vs #250 in the pending payout line.

                                        If there are truly multiple owners or if Tony is found this minor run will only strengthen their reputation within the industry. Run on banks are terrible for the book involved but in the end whose money is it??

Plenty of big money bookies in CR and this is the first I am aware of where someone got kidnapped? And Tony didn't carry a weapon?

                                              I do hope he is all good for him and his family. We can all bicker about bets, money or his attitude but this is someone's life and whether you liked the guy or not, there are people who love him that are beside themselves every hour of every day.
                                              That is just it. He has a family. And this has to be so hard on them. Godspeed to him. Hope this turns out better than I think it will.

This is not what it seems, at all. Absolutely, it sucks what has allegedly happened, but this stinks to high heaven. Anybody that's involved with the sportsbook industry down here that sits back and really looks at what they know, knows that something ain't right about this at all.

                                                        Of course you can't call it.

                                                        You think JJGold, Packerd and Russian Rocket are the same poster.

                                                        You can't call yourself out of a wet paper bag.

                                                          Sounds like he is saying that it is a ruse.

                                                            I don't know what went down. All I know are local rumors and what the local media is saying. It's only speculation beyond that. Local media has said a lot. Reading between the lines, and some of the information that has come out, tells me that this seems strange. Maybe I'm wrong. Either way, I sincerely hope that Tony and his family are okay.

This was a devastating thing for tonys family to endure, they deserve better than some keyboard troll shooting his mouth off in a public forum with ridiculous conspiracies that suggest this was a hoax. keep it to yourself if you have any class.
