    5. Leo
    4. Ben
    3. Nick
    2. Jon
    1. Ashley- have no idea what she looks like but she sounds smoking hot on the phone!!!

    Everyone of these individuals value all players, small and large, and treats them like VIP's. You dont have to kiss anyone's ass here to get phenomenal service!!! Everyone speaks perfect English and best of all you don't have to ever deal with anyone like that jack off Tony!!!!

    5 dimes is customer friendly in respect to their low minimums and point buying opportunities. Last I checked BI minimums were $10 a bet. Sure BI seems have better CS, but they do not compare in other ways to 5 dimes. Each to his own.

    I have become a huge BI fan .. checks in 3 to 4 working days.. 5 dimes takes over 10 days

    BI has 5dimes beat in every way in regards of CS.. BI now has a $2 min bet on the internet.

    5D has low juice .. BI has 107 with a bonus..

    5D has no bonuses.. BI has up to 100% match sometimes

    Wagering offers.. 5D may offer more.. but BI just expanded their betting cart

    Overall 2 good books but the facts above cannot be denied

    Good move by BI lowering their minimum to $2 over the internet. $10 minimum was too high imo.

    Any US player that really prefers 5dimes over Betislands is a total moron.. The only thing really they are considered "better" on is more options, but it's not even better. You don't need all those retarded betting options. 175 game parlays etc.. retarded. If you are a normal human being, Betislands wins hands down.

    5Dimes does post lines much earlier than BI. Another adv if you like wagering before the line move. As for Tony, can not comment as I never had to deal with him.

    I know people talk about early lines, Betislands posts them early. the second NBA games are ending last night they are posting todays lines.. How much earlier do you want them, a week in advance..

    Maybe BI has changed their policy and are posting lines earlier than they used to. Good to know.

    Not familiar with them, except they used to be invitation only and now I believe now they are open to the public.

    They do post them decently early.. They may hold back a few but they make a strong effort to start offering lines quickly now it looks like.

    The best thing about 5dimes is the creative ways Tony can insult your mother if you ask for a $25 free play.

    5dimes is a joke. Tony is running his shop straight into the ground.

    Such a mob mentality here it's kind of funny. Didn't 5D finish first in the player voting? So now everything has changed that quick?

    Granted they have their cs issues but do they deserve all of this? Great teaser odds and I get paid promptly. Can't both books be solid?

    5 Dimes has a ton more betting options for every sport; even the minor ones. They've got everything. And they allow parlay wagering on all kinds of multiple sports. 5Dimes is by far the best site on the web. Probably 99% of 5Dimes customers have never talked to Tony and 99% of their customers didn't join in hopes of a girl who sounds hot.

    BetIslands wants to be better than 5dimes. I will say that BI does have 5dimes beat with good customer service but in all other aspects 5dimes is better or at least as good as BI

    Keep up the good work though BetIslands.

    exactly

    but they have been around alot longer too, BI seems to always want to keep improving which is always a plus...

    Hey guys,

    Thanks for all the positive feedback , 5dimes happens to be a great shop and a valuable out for US players and other regions . Our business models are somewhat different but we do share business ethics such as respecting player funds and always paying out.

    In my opinion a book like Betislands that offers such big bonuses cannot offer what 5dimes and vice versa.

    I respect all honest bookmakers and wish them the best , of course my goal is to try and make BI better everyday and to compete with books like 5D if not I would not be doing my job right nonetheless it is flattering to be compared with a book like 5dimes. In my opinion the more solid sportsbooks out there the more solid the industry is.

    Cheers!

    Jon

    I think the question should be repahrased to "WHO HAS A DEEPER POCKET?" Five dimes or Betisland? Not is 5D better than BI?

    Because in the long haul, the better book survives the longest like OLYMPIC, PINNACLE, HERITAGE, CARIB to name a few!

    Then have fun with your 30 team cricket, rugby, and American idol parlay and talking to Tonys illiterate staff and I'll play at BI and talk to the hot girl for my cs issues and be treated with respect and appreciation and by the way everyone says 5 dimes has the fastest payouts and you're wrong, BI does p2p in under 2 hours 6 days a week and you can get your free payout any day of the week vs 5 dimes and only able to get your free payout on Monday's and 24 p2p payouts- once again BI wins!!

    When they first updated the website it was $1 minimum but for the past few days it went back to $10 minimum. Anyone else notice that?

    First few days when it went down to $1 minimum I messed around with a few $5 parlays, and actually had some decent luck.

    BTW, it looks like they are changing it around again. I see the interface is different, more similar to how it was before the big change. Nothing is working, no lines.

    So you like betislands better and some people like 5dimes better. Not sure why people pimping betislands are always infatuated with slamming 5dimes. They are both good outs and I am glad to have both of them as options. Betislands right now does not have the "years of service" that 5dimes has and I believe this to be a major part of the SBR rankings (as it should). In the past other books have started out the same way betislands has only to eventually fizzle out. (betphoenix anyone)

    You hit that right in the head and I could mention a few way back years ago!

    1.) CAMELOT
    2.) ACES GOLD
    3.) PREMIERE LEAGUE
    4.) DUNES
    5.) SOS
    6.) EASYBET
    7.) SDB GLOBAL
    8.) WWTS (very solid but feds shut it down)
    9.) WSEX (up to this point, no clue on what happened to these guys)
    10.) I could keep on going and going but some might not even ring a bell to you guys! -)
