5Dimes - Why does this site look like it was coded in the 90's?

[Thurgood]

I've heard nothing but good things about 5dimes but why is their site so old looking? Are they trying to stay under the radar? And I used to think Sports Interaction was old school.

[Raven66]

Thats nothing.........The Greek is far worse.

[mr.inpak]

why should anyone care as long as they pay and have reduced juice they are the number one book to bet with

[Boscoe]

they need to improve the mobile site.

[Thurgood]

I'm just curious.

Also, when I make a parlay on their site, what does the IF button do? What are Round Robins and Open Spots? Can I just leave those blank?

I'm used to Sports Interaction where making a parlay is pretty simple.

I just signed up with 5 dimes. Looks like a great site to use without a lot of wagering options. Very professional. Like the minimums as well- $1 in the sportsbook, 25 cents in the racebook. Will be depositing next week.

[john230]

I meant to say with a lot of wagering options.

[trumpdown]

As long as the page loads quickly is good for me. I don't need all the flash and sizzle. I need a quick in and out sometimes ya know.

Others may disagree, I say they are the best in the business.

RIF (rolling if) bets are good to use when you are confident of a bet's outcome but you don't have enough funds for another game that will start before the winnings are put into your account.

[iQon]

Who cares? Do you want to place bets, or be wowed by a bedazzled website?

Thanks! Do you know about round robins and/or open teams options?

And The Greek looks like it was made by a VIC 20 or a Commodore 64. What's your point?

[agharah1]

Yeah, I mean you want to be dazzled by graphics go to Bodog. Hah.

[face]

i would prefer it if they would allow me to place emoticons with my bets.

Bodog is coded much better than 5Dimes. Bodog is also a 150x worse book than 5Dimes. Who cares how it's coded? 5Dimes is an elite book.

[The Bet Master]

I personally love the look of it.

[Ruifgalmeida]

simple sites are better , try to load any eurobook site and you will see

[Thurgood]

Anyone?

I also prefer the simple looking sites like 5dimes and Greek. It is much easier to locate and see the important things --- like the odds for a given team. I must not be too discerning, because I have been looking over sportsbook numbers daily for the last eight years, active in eight to twelve sites at a time ( with about 50 books in all over this time ) and never realized that 5dimes and Greek were any less sophisticated than any other books. Even with all this experience over close to a decade, I have no idea what makes one site "look" old school --- but then, I am not impressed by what other bettors see as flashy looks. I would much rather be able to go right to the numbers.

[john230]

I agree with branch davidian. I prefer a no frills site without all the bells and whistles. They post solid numbers, give you a lot of wagering options , in a simple and concise manner. A+ Book.

Plus, if you request a payment via snail mail on a Monday morning, it's in your mail box by Friday morning with a check that you could actually put in your account in the atm and draw on it the next morning.

Bells and whistles? No thanks

[DT3]

Intertops is by far the worse

[Zion21]

5dimes may have an old looking site but who cares? It works, they pay. Good enough for me!

[Tech N9ne]

Beware of 5dimes

[testudo]

5dimes is fine on a mobile device, just use 5dimes.tv

[Thurgood]

Beware of 5dimes

Can you elaborate?

[King_Suckerman]

I prefer nice and simple layouts so 5D is Ok with me.
What matters (to me) is the range bets offerred and the speed, cost and options for payouts.

Beware of 5dimes

[Kelloggs]

It is not pretty but it gets the job done.

Look how Bet365 have messed it up with all their flash, you can not even do a search on the page

[marcojuiceman]

it does look old ass hell

[frankthetank]

Ive been thinking that for years. they need to spend some of that Money!

[i4jelway7]

[eyeball]

It gets the job done, flashy sites are for squares
