    5dimes Limiting

    I heard 5 dimes limits you by sport or bet type. Is this true? What happens if you bet RAS totals at 5dimes?

    I have the standard $500 limit there for reduced juice bets, just like rich.

    Of course, I am pretty sure I am a loser at 5Dimes overall.

    5dimes is a mickey mouse book, if you plan on winning much don't bother playing there

    Delay on all bets I assume and not just college basketball totals. How long of a delay?

    not an issue to me
    I've never had need to phone either of them
    Matchbook pays promptly
    5D may but they don't let me win anything so it doesn't matter how fast they are

    5dimes, match are both good use both. If you win at five dimes you will be paid. If you win at matchbook you will be paid. Matchbook is an exchange

    5dimes doesn't limit you for winning. They act if you chase steam or beat close.

    Thankyou Sharpie, Matchbook I would feel better if they can change some of the processing methods for depositing funds, at least have a person answer the phonewithin a narrow window of time

    in essence that's correct, as do most books
    but in the end it tends to amount to the same thing ... if you are beating the closing line you are most likey to be a long term winner
