How fast will 5Dimes collar you?

There is no set amount, if you win big on one certain sport, you're likely to get your limits cut there, the reduced juice will go fast if you're killing them with it.

I find it hard to believe you can "kill" 5dimes on their reduced juice lines. $500 max? I don't even bother doing the 500 on the reduced and the rest of my wager on the regular line if I'm in a hurry.

Yeah to $50 i thought was a joke but still better then some of those euro books i suppose

i think people have said it not how much you win ,but your betting patterns , if you beat the closing lines, i still like 5dimes, but then again i am not in the limited column

I know the guy on this forum who was red flagged at 5Dimes after he won $60K and I read the other thread where guy was thrown out after winning only $30k. It is definitely also about betting patterns and chasing the steam. That is why I spoke about straight bets with no extras.
Ah yeah... normally the red flag over at 5Dimes is owners call and normally he personally curses you on the phone and calls your mother a whore and threatens to burn down your house. Guys name is Tony and he is a mental case.

5Dimes is overall a good book, if they only were little more open for a pro business. That and the mentally unstable ownership are their only weaknesses as far as I am concerned.

How long have you been with them, how frequently do you withdraw, do you still receive reduced juice?

It's not how much you are betting but how you are betting.

Won 5 prop bets in a row and they collared me to $100 per prop bet. Funny thing is that I was gonna go big, real big (by my standards) on the Wallace OVER 12.5 points prop on Friday. They said I was limited to $100. Turns out the clown scored 2 points. Since no other book offered it I was had only $115 loss versus $1500. Glad they cut me at the right time.

Great book

What's your point?

You mean - great book who does not really like winners and limits them to nothing after 5 bets?

lumpy19 · 02-28-11, 11:11 AM

I've been with them several years, the only thing limited is my props and some smaller market stuff. Major US sports I still have the 500 limit on reduced juice and I bet the 500 max consistently. I'm a winner over those several years but I've never taken a single payout, I've always transferred to other books.

Tony is an ahole

pinny bookmaker and greek only books with balls..

BSTPNM68 · 02-28-11, 11:23 AM

They get particularly sticky if you start winning in tennis. Spread that sport around as much as you can.

I wish we all had the problem of winning too much
