    5dimes limiting my bet choices

    I recently opened a 5Dimes account and deposited with them. I normally bet score/no score in the first inning. I tend to chase until they score. So now 5dimes doesnt offer 1st inning on my account but does for friends of mine. Is there anything I can do?

    sounds like they don't want you to bet this.

    are you killing them ?

    I am surprise they are taking this away from you, as the vig is pretty high on this.

    Exactly.

    There's no way they're not going to let you bet this. Call them so they can walk you through it.

    If he is chasing, he is losing. They nailed him because he is a chaser, and books do not like chasers.

    Chasers are a bookmakers dream. First extended losing streak and its back to an account balance of $0.

    This certainly seems bizarre. Has to be more to the story.

    *Obligatory I will book your action post*

    From what I've heard 5Dimes doesn't make certain bets unavailable to you. I've never heard of that happening. They cut your limits.
