    5Dimes not just for rec bettors

    5dimes isn't just the best U.S. book for rec bettors, it has value to sharps that have an edge versus their closing line in major sports. Make those your plays at 5dimes. Mostly avoid derivatives and props. You can win a whole lot and still get $500 reduced juice and regular limits.

    These plays also give you more leeway for perceived sharper plays.

    Utter garbage!

    no way I can get $500 on anything at 5D the last time I had funds in there and was betting
    I asked them to let me know if they ever had a change of limits for me but I'm still waiting.

    If you don't get your limits cut, especially playing reduced vig, you're likely not a pro.

    No, you cannot win "a whole lot" and get reduced juice..IF you win a few in a row, you'll be cut unless you are seriously in the red with them.

    $50 reduced juice limits, even when declining bonus' and rebates arent uncommon.

    That said, good shop and for me a must keep. Some value in their regular juice alt line offerings, and if you bet soccer they are a must for US players.

    This thread is total bullshit. Sharps get limited to $50 and have a delay put on their wagers.

    5dimes is a mickey mouse operation.

    Depends on how much you win. You aren't going to see the cutting your limits after just a couple of wins but I have heard of plentty of players who aren't able to bet as much as they like there. My take is if you are a pro you need o have a variety of books that you use, not just one.

    5dimes is entirely for rec gamblers. They don't like winners, they just want people who pick sides and give them the juice, just like a casino.

    The people that got their limits reduced didn't restrain themselves from betting other things or steam chasing.

    If you steam bet, you will get a delay. If you mainly bet arbs, you will get cut. If you do neither of those but still win a large amount, you'll have your limits reduced upon trying to cash out.

    I'm not sure why people are upset about this. It's all pretty standard for a rec book.

    Does your cross out mean that you don't consider steam bettors to be professional gamblers?

    It is hard to bet the soft side of an arb at 5dimes reduced juice without steam chasing. Reduced juice moves quickly. Someone steam betting or arbing "off lines" at 5dimes will bet the same bets, if they only choose reduced juice bets.

    How much is "large amount"
