    5Dimes - Open Ended Teasers No Longer Allowed?

    Have I just forgotten how to work the teaser menu in the NFL off-season or has 5Dimes gotten rid of the option to make open-ended teasers?

    Anyone know when and why 5Dimes disabled this option?

    Anyone know another online book that does allow open-ended teasers?

    Just ran a test with basketball and football, option to leave open still there for me. Up to 15 teams, same as always. Heritage offers open teasers/parlays too.

    Have your bet limits been reduced as well?

    If it's not a glitch with your computer/browser, sounds like you've been restricted.

    I had the open parlay/option removed without being limited a couple of years ago.

    I even asked for it back a year or so later and they said yes and did it.

    It's gone again now though

    I loved them a bit too much

    Yeah, that's what happened. I have reduced limits and no more open parlays.

    Kind of a shame because I'm most certainly not a pro bettor.

    I may make smart bets most of the time, but I also bet strongly with my heart and make huge, hopeless wagers on my personal favorites all the time, eg McGregor v Mayweather.

    5Dimes a little too sensitive with the risk management.

    They have zero tolerance for betting bad lines.

    That's usually the only reason you lose all perks at once there.

    Unless you count opening lines generally, that wouldn't apply to me
