    Does 5 Dimes Boot Pro Bettors?

    Not steam chasers or other any kinds of bettors trying to take advantage of flaws with the lines.

    If you're placing honest wagers and simply winning on a constant basis, would 5 Dimes try to limit or boot you?

    Its depends. If your playing for decent amounts and beating the closer they will definitely limit you. If your not beating closers and just hit a hot streak you'll probably be fine.

    Come on, man, you can't honestly believe that.

    5dimes is a recreational sportsbook, nothing more, nothing less.

    To say there are people winning 400k a month there is downright foolish, at least make it a more believable number. I'd be willing to guarantee if someone even has a clue what they're doing, that they'd limit you before you hit 40k, never mind 400k.

    Unless you're wagering at an exchange, the only books that you can consistently win large sums of money at without getting limited/booted are Pinnacle, SBO, and Bookmaker/DSI.

    5dimes is extremely similar to Bet365, completely useless if you have a clue.

    Even the exchanges will boot/limit you because you dry up the funds of the players of the people who give volume to their exchange.

    You can get your reduced taken away/limited bigtime. And small markets I've seen people have $25 limits, but I'm not sure I've ever heard of someone's NBA/NFL being limited at -110 there.

    Then again, no real reason to bet into the -110 at 5dimes, so once they boot you from reduced juice, the people likely go elsewhere.

    Regardless, no one is winning 400k a month at 5dimes.

    No one is winning 400k a year at 5dimes.

    If someone actually does believe that, please provide reasoning as to why Tony would let them stick around? There's absolutely no reason what so ever.

    There's nobody anywhere consistently making over 100k a month sports betting off a single book.

    Absolutely idiotic number without a doubt.

    5ds has probably had many players win 100-200 thousand in a month.

    I think they limit sharps to $500 reduced juice with re-bets but maybe on delay.

    Everyone is $500 reduced, not just sharps.

    Which can be rebet to 20k or more. It gives the book a chance to move the line instead of 10 people coming in betting 20k in 20 seconds.

    With any good bookmaker, it's not how much you win but what you are betting on. A guy who picks off weak $400 limit props can get booted before a guy winning a million. If you don't have information that would move a line before the bookmaker does you'll be fine. If you are more of an expert or insider than the linesmen is in high school football or triple A baseball and only bet that league you will get the boot before someone betting every NFL sunday and winning 6 figs per month through the NFL season. The books don't care if you beat their other players in a fair market but when you bet an obscure or moving line they cant balance... thats when you see players say "Ive been kicked out of so and so who is supposed to be serious bookie!" There are bettors who win 7 figures at 5dimes, bet365 and bookmaker through the course of a season and are welcomed back. There are those who LOSE a couple thousand only betting reverse run lines after the market changes who are asked to leave.
