How do you find out your limit at 5Dimes?

I find mine out when I try and make a bet. If you try and bet over your limit, the software automatically lowers it to your limit.

You still have a chance to accept/reject the bet at that point.

that's ridiculous. so the only way to find out ur different limits is to try them all? (i use the word 'all' because i assume limits would be different for each sport, reg season vs playoffs, etc...). they should have it written on the bet page.

I totally agree that it's wrong but it is the way, not only at Pinnacle but just about every other bookie I can think of.

Many bookies do disclose your limit on the betslip after you've made a selection but 5D and a few others I can think of don't advise of a limit, just put you in delay mode whilst they consider how much to let you have (if anything).

Obviously a bookie imposing limits on selected accounts can't display a global limit like Pinnacle do.

Different people have different limits. I can only bet 115 to win 100 on FCS football but most people I know can bet 287.5 to win 250.

Tony decides your limit. He will let you know.
