I have never witnessed such stupidity in my life
a bunch of degenerates crying for a book to stop giving them fair prices.
So far no one siding with the OP has demonstrated any knowledge of how lines are set.
You all should stop gambling but me and many others are grateful that you all do gamble.Comment -
i have hit for 5k on the number and have always gotten paid instantly on several occasions but if ppl are talking that he dont want to pay out i want to find another book that offers at least the same 9000/1 on 4 digits that they do .Do you know of any please notify me....tyComment -
Looks like 5 Dimes supporters outnumbered detractors like 75%Comment -

4 digits would pay a shitload and rock your world
cant hold it against some people who tony has rubbed the wrong way
I love this book..slight problem may be their shit dont stink..and they kinow it
I give great props to SBR or getting this book involved in contest givaways..they are fair..but dont have a track record of over generousity say like a bet pheonix
bet pheonix gave away a million free plays on sbr yet get reemed here dailyComment -
Here is bottom line
5dimes is taking shots or they are incompetent...either way...bad book.Comment -
Because the bets are being cancelled if they cashI have never witnessed such stupidity in my life a bunch of degenerates crying for a book to stop giving them fair prices.

sharpcat...you are obviously not as your alias indicates. google cancelled 5dimes line. Now google cancelled thegreek line.
So, it is very simple logic. 5dimes posts bad lines....DO THEY EVER CANCEL THE BETS WHEN IT LOSES? OR ONLY WHEN IT PAYS OUT BIG AND IS IT DONE ON A PERSON BY PERSON BASIS?
the fact that this question has to be asked is enough for me to not play there.Comment -
boondoggle Sir..what books would you recommend?..thks-SSComment -
you are being disingenuous. google "cancelled 5dimes bad line" without the quotes. Lots of forum posts about it all over the interwebs.When?
This is my 3rd time asking this and no one can tell me.
One example I know of: The guy who posted in this thread and that was a bad line.
Where are the other threads? I'm being serious, not sarcastic.Comment -
The casino case in particular...DID THE PEOPLE WHO LOST MONEY PRIOR TO THE NON PAYOUT OF THE BIG WINNER GET REIMBURSED? THAT IS SHOT TAKING AT ITS MOST SIMPLEST.
some of you fail in logic. So I will explain this quite simply. Here is the example, say casino game A was in place from jan 1, 2011 until may 1, 2011. During this period of time, quite a few people lost money playing it. Now on may 1, 2011 there was a big winner due to him being able to take advantage of the bad payout and he played perfect strategy and won 16k. Tony says, bad game design and voids the payout. WHAT HAPPENED TO ALL THE MONEY LOST BY PAYING CUSTOMERS ON THAT BAD CASINO GAME FROM JAN 1, 2011?????? THAT IS SHOT TAKING BY 5DIMES. BASICALLY AS LONG PAYING CUSTOMERS LOSE BECAUSE THEY DO NOT PLAY PERFECT STRATEGY--THAT IS ACCEPTABLE.
once Tony said the game was unfair and refused payout...all players who had a net loss on that casino game should be reimbursed. failure to do so is taking advantage of your players. It is super simple to understand.Comment -
The one good thing about this ridiculous thread is that it identifies the clueless posters (ie, the ones who agree with the OP) which allows one to pretty much just skip by all of their future posts.Comment -
Either way, I am going to stay away from this book. How can you have so many lines posted that are posted incorrectly? Every other sports books seems to be just fine posting lines without incorrectly posting them. I was never that enthused with this book, i never understood the glowing praise this book received. Now, after hearing this, i will stay away from it all together. And stick with BD or intertops.Comment -
5Dimes is the most classless A+ book that supports SBR. For the real long time bettors that do this for income that they depend on for living purposes 5Dimes is the worse option. It's like going to work everyday dealing with a boss that is so full of himself that he disrespects you (Tony). You could do a lot better than working with Tony. He may pay but the poor customer service and the 1st time he did not pay a player after that player won for whatever reason was enough for me to make up my mind I would never put a penny into his bs shop. Heck I don't buy drugs from dudes that ride around on big rims and mean mug trying to be hard. I would rather buy mines from some little corny looking dude with a family and kids that you would never figure is doing such. Phuck Tony and 5Dimes they are making way too much noise with all of there sketchy bullshit. He has no respect for his customers he thinks of you like a pimp and hoe thinks of a trick, maybe all books do but they don't let you know like Tony does. Any fool still playing there is desperate and will get taken advantage of like desperate people do.Comment -
yeah i meant to say 9000/1 for 4 and 900/1 for 3 i get lucky playing that i love 5 dimes been there forever and even when talked with tony had a good experience its just that all this stuff i been hearing lately puts me on guard but i never had problem with them.
shari wasnt there something about wrestling line that they put out that ppl were complaining about ???Comment -
i dont need math for my claims, only common sense.
it was 4 or 5 big tourneys in a row where some guys for top 10 were paying like 10:1 and top 20 were 20:1. im sure a casual bettor wouldn't take notice or care.
i took it straight to 5dimes attention though instead of creating threads (though i did make posts about it in that beware of 5dimes thread). after the 4th or 5th time i figured i shouldnt have to be doing their job so i left the book.
i cant wait to see the us open prices because i will check them out this time..funny they might actually try a little harder though.Comment -
Yeah. That situation was different to what nobs is saying though. In that one, a WWE match was finished and was ruled a double count out and then restarted for whatever reason they do those things in the WWE lol. So a poster had a bet on the guy who eventually won the rematch but obviously there was no winner of the first. So his bet was voided and money returned. SBR got involved and he was presented with the opportunity of either receiving the winnings and closing his account (although he would be allowed to return in the future if he paid back the winnings) or accept the voided bet and continue on as usual. He chose to collect the winnings and leave.
I actually Googled and have been reading threads on 3 sites since my earlier post. I started to make a post in here with the result of each of the threads but stopped because I realised I'd just look like a shill Mod. The problem with the threads I'm finding is that either the bet was cancelled before the game took place; there was an obvious error ie one was the Phillies +1.5 being listed at -145 when the ML was -230 or that Tony paid out the bet after reversing the decision of his linesman (home and away teams were listed in the wrong order despite 5Dimes having a written policy of home teams being listed 2nd). And there are many threads where people took an obvious shot, admitted they did and posters jumped on them for expecting to be paid in the first place.
Oh and I've found a MW thread from 5+ years ago where a guy was busted multi-accounting and was offered 1/2 payout on his bets.
Still looking though

The lines were comparable to the market and 5dimes is going to get a lot more action on their multi-way futures then comparable books. Just like 5Dimes offers the best prices on the favorites, when they get bets on the said favorites, they need to adjust their multway calculator to offer bettor prices on players who have not have as much action booked on them. It is unreal that claiming 6000 to 10000 is anything like 1/4.5 to 1/45 or whatever the other dispute was. The difference between the 6000/10000 is just more than a real16 vig. I cannot understand how freethinking people could use these posts to incite their disposition against 5Dimes. Hate Tony cause he treats customers like crap, thats fine, but to engineer this idea that these prices are off and he is shot taking is irresponsible.
Nobs, I see you have way too much time on your hands after not being able to buy northfaces for 17 yr olds but please do something more constructive with that time than this crap.Comment -
And that's the reason this site has went down to shit so quickly, what the fuc are you on here for if you don't gamble for keeps? Just a bunch of SBR annointed Pros and guys that look at gambling like the lotto running around voicing bullshit unsubstantiated opinions. The point system and the Pro system gave everyone what they really wanted except for the real deal gamblers.Comment -
5dimes is a scary out period. I have no idea how much they pay SBR to rank them so highly but it is far from deserved. Even Covers doesnt have them ranked in their top ten.
As soon as one of those triple long shots, hit Tony is going to cry shot taker. If they actually allow arbitration, SBR will side with their investment and **** the player.
I don't know which site has turned into more of a joke nowadays SBR or Covers...geez.Comment
