    5D changed their Live Betting Ultra

    I'm 5D biggest fan but I really dislike their new Live Betting Ultra layout. Fewer options and don't dare try and use it while on your smartphone (iphone). I try to scroll down to the game I want to bet and the screen refreshes everytime before I can select the game. So unless the game I want is at the top of the screen and I don't have to swipe down, I can't make a bet. And if I ever do select the game, when I try to confirm the bet, the confirm box moves as soon as I touch confirm, so most of the time the bet is void by the time I am able to lock it. Please bring back the old ugly black screen ultra. Much more user friendly. Thank goodness they still have the "Live Betting Extra".

    On a brighter note... I submitted a bitcoin payout to them on Sunday Night and it cleared less than 24 hours later. Much love 5D.

    Wufpak, 100% agree with you on the new live betting at 5dimes. Hate how there are far fewer choices. I’m also having the same problem with the page reloading.

    I had the same issue with the page reloading and I was able to fix the problem by disabling my pop ads blocker on my internet browser, I have firefox

    I noticed this the other day too. Hate it, so many more options with the other. I too can’t scroll past the first few matches in a sport.

    Ya, it sux. Especially on phone. They are real slow to offer reg live lines in commercial breaks too. Many better outs.

    This new format just reads like a jumbled mess. Hate it. Terrible functionality and fewer options to boot. 5D if you read this, please go back to the old Live Betting Ultra.

    Not a fan of the new layout but the iPhone scrolling issues on Live Betting Ultra seem to be fixed. Also noticed it's better if you do it via propbet.com

    This is the most important piece of information here... The lines are absolutely atrocious.

    One of the things I liked about the old Ultra was for basketball games you could bet on a margin of victory. You could bet a team to win by 1-2 points, 3-6 points, 7-9 points, 10-13 etc... Thats gone now.

    I agree 100% and I am glad I am not the only one complaining about this. The offerings are horrible compared to before and the juice is super inflated. I talked to 5 dimes to see if it was a completely new 3rd party provider and they said no. Such an extremeeee changed. I remember the live betting extra used to be great until they made horrible changes 2-3 years ago and I never use that anymore. Does anyone know an alternative site that offers live betting ultra alternative lines etc and can be used in the US? I wish bet365 would get in the state

    Life saver!!! Thanks again!! Milwaukee Mike let me know why you were banned so I don't run into the same issue. Thanks Looks like either 5dimes lied to me because they said that they are using the same 3rd party but a new platform from the same old company as they updated their platform. Looks like that is not true with youwager having the same old platform. Also, Milwaukee Mike what is the wager limit on youwager live wagering $500 like 5dimes? Thanks

    Just spoke to 5dimes manager and they said that they are staying with the new platform but the offerings will be increasing in the next few days. Ive been dealing with this guy for all my issues and he gets things taken care of so hopefully its true. New look but same as old. Until then youwager!!

    I actually loved Bovada’s live betting until they changed it - that was my favorite format and they had lots of options. I’m not sure exactly when it was changed, but it must have been at some point during 2018. I do have a Bookmaker account, so I’ll have to try their live betting as bonzaii mentioned above.

    Also, in regards to the live betting and heavy juice, it seems that is the case with most sportsbooks. Some are way worse than others and not even worth using because they’re ripping you off. Betonline has a decent live betting format, but big juice there, too. I’ve noticed often with Betonline and some other books that they delay the bet processing and a lot of times a bet won’t go through until after a delay of +/-10 seconds - but usually the bet will be declined if the odds change in my favor as a result of a play during the delay, and accepted if the odds change in the books favor. Pretty shitty.

    That's fine and dandy but they also need to take a look at why it sucks so bad on a mobile device.. It's impossible to live bet using a smart phone. Or at least it is on my iphone. And I've tried it using safari and chrome.

    Even on my desktop after I select the game I want, if i scroll all the way to the bottom of the page the screen starts glitching. It's just terribly unstable. And FYI, the Youwager site does have the same black screen live bet but they have limited options once you select the game. For example, 5d's ultra there were sometimes 20 options for a single basketball game. At youwager you can't even bet on halves or quarters. Very limited.

    that's a ridiculous statement

    do you even live bet at heritage? their new "heritage live" system is totally unusable... $100 limits, horrible juice and the lines change all the time so it's close to impossible to get a bet in

    please explain to me how i'm supposed to make money betting this fcs game when the money line is -20000/+1625 or oklahoma/ok st when it's -1055/+465

    Heritage used to have the same black screen format as the old 5D ultra but did away with it a year or so ago. Their new format is pretty bad. Selections pop up and down with quickness. You're lucky to ever get a bet in.
