      Between your porn obsession and reruns on the Jersey Shore, I'm sure you'll find time.

        It's educational. There are actually players who feel "fair" only exists when the casino has the edge. An interesting perspective.

          was every game a winner or were the ones that cashed paid out at the wrong odds

            It was set so that hands that normally would not have had any payout, payed.

                After reading that chat log, I will never e-e-e-e-e-ever deposit at 5dimes, and I suggest no one else should either.

                That chat log should be enough reason for an automatic downgrade to C- status. I assume that 5dimes pays SBR, so that downgrade wont happen. It also renders SBR quite useless because they cant be unbias in this situation. How fair are any of these ratings really?!?

                  More than that...it regards an organizations rep that gives little grace, yanks accounts ad noseum who admitted an error, yanked the entire balance except initial deposit and expects grace for the mistake they made

                    I am very interested to see what Justin7 has to say about this, after crucifying Easystreet. Will he have the balls to speak openly about this situation?

                                    I guess Tony the douche is too ignorant to see that all this bad press is hurting him badly.....IMO the op should be paid $1000 and Tony should write it off as a good gesture and part of the cost of doing business..

                                    His reputation could make a huge comeback with an apology and a reasonable settlement; and he should do it very quickly as this thread gets more steam and more 5d haters.

                                          I'm willing to bet that over 80% of the people in this thread don't even understand the issue. As mentioned in another thread, the +390% advantage would translate into something like this. I'll raise it +400% to make it easier:

                                          1 wins 4
                                          5 wins 20
                                          25 wins 100
                                          125 wins 500
                                          625 wins 2500.

                                          Not only is that comparable to a bad line at a sportsbook, but you would get to bet it game after game after game. There is just no way on earth that this player deserves the 32K. He is lucky to get anything at all, and I think he should get a little for identifying the error, which has protective value for the book.

                                            5 wins 20
                                            25 wins 100
                                            125 wins 500
                                            625 wins 2500.

                                            Not only is that comparable to a bad line at a sportsbook, but you would get to bet it game after game after game. There is just no way on earth that this player deserves the 32K. He is lucky to get anything at all, and I think he should get a little for identifying the error, which has protective value for the book.

                                            thanks for clearing that up dark horse!

                                            now pay the player its not his problem he got the advantage they should be happy he stoped at 32k i would of played 48 hours str8 untill i fell asleep at the keyborad

                                              Look at the facts. Not the uproar by the masses.

                                              If somebody tries to steal from you, and he acts like a gentleman, does that make him less of a thief? Believe me. It's not Tony trying to steal the money. Tony is the guy running a sh*tty casino, which is unfortunate, because he has a great sportsbook.

                                              This is no different than a player betting into a bad line. The only thing being different is that he got to do it over and over. The OP was smart, and knew what he was doing all along. That's why he wasn't even angry when he didn't get paid. He was always into this to make a deal. And he knew that he had the forum, with an already sensitized crowd, to help him make his deal.

                                                They should at least give him a % of his winnings. When someone exploited a bug with sportsbetting, they reportedly let him keep his account as well as give the player a % of the winnings. This is not a bug in the casino software though.... just outright incompetance. But they should still give the player something. It would give 5dimes an incentive to be on their toes and do what they can to make sure that their casino is running as it should.

                                                        Dark Horse, it boggles my mind that you continue to support these shady actions taken by this book. In the real world if you or I make a bad decision, we have to pay for it, we can't just say "oops I didn't mean to do that, give me my money back, or don't take me to jail." No we pay for our mistakes. If you are in an online casino playing Blackjack are dealt a 20 and accidentally click hit when you meant to click stand and lose that hand, do you think you can get your money back? Hell no! You messed up and just have to be a man about it and take your loss. Tony needs to be a man and take his loss.

                                                          They should have to pay for having so many problems with their casino, I don't think the whole amount but at least half of it. Get some damm new software will you 5dimes.

                                                              I see no difference at all with betting into a bad line, kero. Except that it is compounded here.

                                                              That doesn't mean I would ever play at the 5D casino, or at any online casino. If the odds can be skewed that much in the player's favor, guess what...

                                                                so when you advertise something for a price..then someone gives you the price your asking for, thats stealing? YOU fail to read between the lines horribly on this one...and isnt it called "being a smart player" when a player searches and takes advantage of a weaknesses in a game????? last time i checked handicapping was the process of finding value in a line right??? so pretty much your saying that every handicapper is cheating cuz they are betting on a line that they know is weak instead of being good boys and girls and informing the book about it...cuz yeah its not fair for the player to win at a game were ummm hes not "suppose" to win....LMFAOOOOO

YOU fail to read between the lines horribly on this one...and isnt it called "being a smart player" when a player searches and takes advantage of a weaknesses in a game????? last time i checked handicapping was the process of finding value in a line right??? so pretty much your saying that every handicapper is cheating cuz they are betting on a line that they know is weak instead of being good boys and girls and informing the book about it...cuz yeah its not fair for the player to win at a game were ummm hes not "suppose" to win....LMFAOOOOO

                                                                    Not only is that comparable to a bad line at a sportsbook, but you would get to bet it game after game after game. There is just no way on earth that this player deserves the 32K. He is lucky to get anything at all, and I think he should get a little for identifying the error, which has protective value for the book.
