I have been with 5dimes for years now. I love most of what they have to offer, even though I've lost a good amount of money to them. My main complaint is the way they make the football lines. It's Sooooo obvious they post them like 2 or 3 points higher so as to affect the people that would like to tease. An example is any time a team is favored by lets say 7 5dimes will have it at like 9.5 + 130. So u can't tease down to a pick em. Or u have to do the 10 point tease which obviously pays way less. Anyone else notice this and annoyed by it like I am?

It's called teaser protection. If the books didn't do it, they'd get one-sided teaser action that could potentially bury them.

Also, lots of those teasers are loved by the public, so they really get squashed if a typical homer teaser of USC, Dallas, and the Pats win.

Why the double post Wager 1?

If your a teaser player simply play somewhere else. Most places do not use teaser protection numbers.
