Both. It shouldn't be an either or. You should open up accounts at absolutely all of the reputable bookmakers that are open to you and then when you want to place a bet you should compare odds at all of these bookmakers and bet at the one that offers the best price. Sticking to just one or two or just a few books makes you cannon fodder for the bookmakers as you will most probably be taking a worse price than you can get elsewhere if you are not comparing the whole market.

I'm with both. They are different enough it's worth having both.

BOL better for bonuses, live betting and early odds. 5D better for markets covered, exotic options and reduced juice.

5d wayyyyyyy better

5D for me too. If you do decide to go with BOL, be aware that there is a 6.5% fee on bitcoin deposits.

BetOnline is my personal favorite solely because of openers. If you are not going to jump the lines, 5Dimes is by far the better book. BOL is a little scammy.

I am choosing a Betonline. Never have a problem with payouts. Good odds and extensive line on many sorts of sport. BOL have a more usefull site then 5dimes.IMHO.
5Dimes no longer accept/withdraw Skrill/Netteller, card transactions.
5Dimes reduce juice line for small amount only. Lure for begginers.

True, that part they advertise. Just wanted to give you a heads up the 6.5 % BTC fee that is intentionally hidden. If you can deposit some other way to save the fee, you'll do even better. GL

Looks like the consensus is,if you want to bet openers BOL is the way to go, but 5D is the better overall book. Thanks everyone.

BOL wont give a re-up bonus if you still have a penny available in your account. Blew my mind when I deposited thinking I would get the re-up bonus, only to be told that I still had a balance. Yes, the balance was like maybe $1.12 On the good note, though, I think they have the best Live Play odds out there. 5D, on the other hand, is the best place to play. The only problem is that they have a low threshold for winners. You can maybe sneak off with 20k before they notice though.
Good luck.

mikey the percentage of people that "sneak off with 20k" is around 0.00.1% this means nothing to the other 99.999% of bettors.

Rubbish. I know someone well into 6 figures up at 5D without much in the way of restrictions. And plenty who make 20k+ scores and nothing happens.

If you are gambling, rather than just picking off numbers, they pretty much leave you alone.

5 dime is the best

**Easy-Rider 66** · 08-14-16, 09:38 AM

Never played at BOL, but 5D is a solid Shop. DSI is also a good out.

The top 3 of the posters poll is identical to the SBR list. You can't go wrong at any of the 3. Each has it's strength and weakness.
