    Alone else get the invite to this book? They claim to be the spinoff of the book you loved(5Dimes)? I’d post the email if I remembered how but I went ahead and signed up just to see. I guess they are just getting started because it is barebones, the peepsplace of sportsbooks. Email says invite only, I asked supports a ton of questions but there is no way to verify anything. They did say Becky is running it. I had better luck with Tony to be honest. Signup form asks for your ssn which is a red flag but support said it should be the last four of ssn. Still not sure why they even need that. Needless to say they didn’t get it. Judging by the account number I received I’m thinking they just went live. They accept bitcoin from what I could tell and have reduced juice like 5Dimes but that’s about it. No casino, I didn’t see futures, I did see some live betting options. I’m not sure what is going on to be honest.

    Received the same e-mail but, other than their new website, cannot find anything else about them. I probably received invite on their second wave of e-mails so does anyone have any experience with them yet?

    I played there over the weekend. It definitely feels like 5Dimes and since they changed the layout it looks like 5Dimes too. Reduced juice is the best option, problem is , you can’t get reduced juice if you take the progressive bonus or the cash back. They reply to emails promptly and professionally and live chat is helpful. I was told verification can be done in a matter of minutes and withdrawals can take 24 hours. I’ll report back if I request a withdrawal. The problem is, Tony was 5Dimes, his innovation was what made 5Dimes special. I don’t see that innovation here. We’ll see but I don’t think someone else can recreate 5Dimes.

    Have not seen a legit operation trying to piggyback off 5Dimes name yet.

    And Google seems to think SBR and BMR are the only places that know about this brand. Maybe a red flag too.

    Noticed this little tidbit today. I have to admit, it feels a lot like 5Dimes to me.

    12. About Us...
    We are not your average bookmakers; we are the real-deal line makers who were taken off the market back in 2020 (if you know, you know, but don’t ask). Three years later, we saw a gap in the market that was never filled and decided to put the team back together and create a legit book, for the hardcore bettors who felt a bit neglected ever since.
    Each of us sporting over 25 years of experience and finding life a bit dull, by the end of 2023, we thought, why not bring back the thrill of gambling and make shopping for the best line a breeze? We are sure the seasoned pros will reminisce about the good old days; but what about the amateurs?. Well, they are about to learn what real sports betting is all about. Buckle up, because this is just the beginning, and we are here to shake things up. Cheers to the resurgence of the true sports betting experience! Welcome to Bettors Den!

    Lol I could write the same thing. It will never be the same Tony AKA Sean is dead. 5dimes had skins back in the day.. I'd make sure that isn't the case first. bettorsden.com if this doesn't reek as a few guys who worked at 5 dimes opening a pph shop nothing does. Tell us how it works out. First Red Flag no Lottery. 2nd just look at the site. LOL

    Looks fishy to me for several reasons...
    -Tony's wife had made good with the us government. Why would she try again after she paid a bunch of fines to be a free women?
    -The site has a .com web address. What's saying the us government doesn't block the site after we all deposit? Seems like am unnecessary risk to have a .com and not have a .eu or another foreign web address that the US government has no control over.
    -somethings just seem fishy. I guess they finally added some more stuff to the site, like deposit/ payout methods,rules, bonus programs...etc. unsure if they have live betting or what platforms they have. 5d had like 4 or 5 platforms for live betting.

    Lot of things just seem fishy to me. I want to believe it's back to the good old days, but the fact that it's a .com web address scares the crap outta me.

    I just talked to the chat for shits and giggles for 25 mins. I 1000% think it's someone who got a players list and Becky is behind it. She was very high up there back in the day. They were only able to give me my name from my email but not my home address or anything else. They don't have live casino?? Yet its's the Old 5dimes. I also asked to speak with ppl who worked there in the past and obv no1 works there anymore but Becky cuz it's been 3 years so i ask for a call from Becky? No call. I no her voice.. I played at 5dimes for many many years. She may not of been there but I think this is a raid of a player list and nothing more. I never got an invite yet Max didn't care he told me to sign up. I can't tell you what to do with your money but I'd only put in what I could lose and not care and go from there.

    If I deposit and they skim it, I know it’s the old 5Dimes!

    I don’t think Tony’s widow has anything to do with it, just Becky and the previous financial backers of 5Dimes. I had many “discussions” with Tony , over the phone and eventually live chat. They were usually very heated but we always came to an amicable solution once he figured out I wasn’t trying to scam him. Becky on the other hand, she preferred to communicate through support and the answer was always no, and no more discussion. So for that reason alone, I won’t be playing there.

    But why the .com and not .eu?
    That scares me more than anything..

    I’m not sure but there are plenty of places I play at that are still .com . One that’s been around since 2007, still .com. One that opened last year .com . I don’t think anyone is scared of getting their domain seized from the good ole US of A anymore. Land of the free!!! My ass.

    I have tried it they do pay with only 1 free payout per month and others are charged 1%. They ask for pic of drivers license but no social security number. It is the old 5dimes but a skimmed down version.

    They definitely payout. I was skeptical at first but have received consistent payouts from them after KYC. They appear to use the same cashier software as BAS. But so far, been a really good book for me.

    Yes, they pay after going through the KYC. Pay is a little slow usually more then 24 hours and you have to confirm after getting an email. Also, after you request a payout they will essentially cancel it out and open up a new request to put the payout fee in. Or if you want a free one, they will do the same and then credit back the fee. That seems a little like an extra step delay tactic.

    So far they have paid which is reassuring but can they handle large payouts? They cap at 10K per request. You can do multiple requests a day. Just wish it would be a little more instant like most sites, especially in this day and age. They say they have to do an "audit" on each request.

    Chat support is pretty friendly and you usually get a quick response from customer service email.

    Been playing there about a month due to them offering open parlays. One month later, open parlays are no longer offered.
