Betting Tennis with 5Dimes

[The Bet Master]

I would suggest any players here don't bet with 5dimes on Tennis. Today I found out the hard way on their grading procedures. If 1 set is completed and a player retires, no matter what the score, they are the loser. Obviously it's my fault for not reading that rule before betting, but I'm sure that there are other players that are betting there that also do not know this.

I had a bet on Dmitry Tursonov against Pablo Andujar and the score was 4-6 6-3 1-1 when he retired and I lost.

Can anyone inform me on other books that also use this rule?

that list is out of date

Betfair and Pinnacle settle on the winner so long as one set is complete

It probably helps you as much as it hurts you, in the long run. Just be informed beforehand. It's your money; read the house rules if you care about it. But don't besmirch 5Dimes because you ended up on the wrong end of it this time.

yeah this rule I find acceptable as 5dimes is one of the best books for U.S players to bet tennis. It will more than likely be in your favor another time.
