5dimes poker room

The answer is no. I'm sure your friends also aren't telling you when they put a bad beat on another player. Terrible beats happen. They happen more often online due to more hands played per hour.

come on man, the money goes around in circles to increase rake. eventually the better players will prevail, but these sites are 100% rigged to increase revenue. anyone who thinks otherwise is not thinking clearly.

Clearly. The winning players don't come on forums and complain. The bad players that shove A4 off and say the "other" player has aces or kings every time.

The winning players especially don't complain when they're robots for the site. It's happened a lot of places, so anyone who makes a blanket statement that 5 dimes or any other poker site is definitely legit is either naive or stupid, or both.

5d poker room is just a skin on the Winning poker network. Of the players you see online only a small amount are actually playing through 5dimes client.

BCP, Bookmaker, Americas Card Room, True Poker, CRIS, DSI and some others are all on the Winning network. In fact the poker client on all of these sites is identical sans color, imagery and promotions. Any complaint, issue, or security problem is handled by the network. 5d and others like it are not hosting the poker tables, they most likely just take a certain % of rake.

There are a few skins (mainly BCP and ACR) that cater to mostly poker as opposed to the 5d type skins who are more focused on betting. On these skins that cater to grinders, there are many serious players who play poker on all sites (avail to US) who play tons of hands with HUDS and no major statistical anomalies have been reported.

Fwiw Pokerstars never cheated any players, in fact they are the only major site who as of right now have actually paid back US player balances after Black Friday.

What would prevent me from depositing money into both Bookmaker and 5Dimes and using each of their skins to play two seats on one table? Does the Winning Network have a safeguard for this? Do they track IP addresses??

I have people call all-ins on the turn all the time and hit two outters on me.

People also call go all in with gut shots and miraculously hit.

Worst beats out of any poker room I've played at online. The sportsbook is good. STay away from the casino.

Cant speak of their exact methods, but I think its a safe bet that you'd be detected pretty quickly.

For all people saying its rigged, exchange 5dimes with ANY other poker room and you'll get just about the same result. Maybe not the same posters, but there will be people saying the exact same thing. Admitedly I havent played at 5d, and there certainly has been cases of bots, superusers and other funny business going on in this industry before, but as godevils said, there'd be reports of statistical anomalies beyond the odd single bad beat HH.

That said, when that monster beat occurs you certainly cant help but feel like they (poker rooms in general) would be wanting to "spice things up" at occasions hehe.

In all honesty....if you think the shuffle is unfair then online poker is not for you. 5 Dimes does not have there own sportsbook, they are part of the true poker network. We the player, tend to rememeber the bad beats more then the good.

**nyplayer33** · 05-20-13, 06:20 AM

As for playing on 2 different skins at same time, the software won't let 2 ip's to be playing at same time.

The sites are light years ahead of you here. These issues were solved a long time ago.

Think you made a mistake there but I know what you meant.

5dimes does have their own sportsbook and they use the winning poker network for poker. They are one of many skins on the network.
