    Live In Play bettiing at 5 Dimes

    I don't bet in-play very often, but have yet to see a price posted for any event.

    Do they actually ever offer live lines? I know they say just during commercial breaks, but in about a year at 5D I don't think I've ever seen a number posted for one.

    Was just trying to back Lisicki after she went down a down break early in her US Open tennis match against Zvonareva. Sat on the damn screen refreshing it between every game of the first set, at the end of the first set and at the break after 3rd game of second set and nothing showed up.

    Is there a trick to betting live there I am missing??

    one of the dumbest posts I've ever read. You have to be blind not to find live lines at 5 dimes.

    Will you be using the dumb or blind excuse for not understanding what I meant?

    The match was there but the odds never changed from -99999


    Same thing I've seen every time I have ever looked at the 'live lines' for tennis.

    Nobody really watches Tennis Channel. The sportsbook pays attention to ESPN and the major networks. TNC might not even be available in Costa Rica, who knows.

    Still, it was a bit annoying that they left the match on the board if not going to service it.

    Just had a thought. There is a post about bets not being graded by 5 Dimes in the last few hours. Maybe they had a problem at the office that prevented them handling this game.

    Just to put my mind at ease. Has anyone here ever bet Live In Play on tennis?

    My winning wagers from tonite havent been graded yet either. Occasionally they do take a while, it is a holiday weekend after all, possibly the reason for the slow grading of wagers.

    Yes, I have bet live-in play tennis many times in the past.

    I've bet on live in game on tennis @ 5dimes plenty of times.. it's all about the timing.. they don't always offer the lines during the commercials and sometimes they take the live in games off the board all together like they did yesterday in the Lisicki match
