    5Dimes has grown some balls...

    In years past they would just mimic Pinny, now they are posting off lines and making moves without Pinny doing it first.

    What do the sharps think about 5Dimes, do they have enough weight to throw around?

    Or is it just Tony trying to stroke his ego?

    I still feel they mimic Pinnacle a lot. I have em lined up next to each other on my screen and I can almost guess when 5dimes is going to move a line.

    Sharp or not, it's always nice to see some unique lines on the board.

    I know they copy/paste their NBA props today right from Sportsbook.com and Greek. You would think if this Tony has pride/ego he would make up his own instead of stealing the other books hard work

    If they really had balls they would not put a $50 collar and a wager delay on anyone who is sharp.

    5Dimes = Pussy Book

    They are still a rec book and why wouldn't they collar sharp players?

    The thread starter said they grew some balls..... heavy collaring/delays proves they have no balls.

    Who really cares if they throw up a few good numbers when they will limit/delay you if you bet into the good side of them?

    Exactly. With low limits and delays, there isn't a lot of downside in taking a position.

    We need another report from someone who was on the wrong end of one of his wiseguy-in-training-temper tantrums.

    I love the term "rec book". What book isn't a rec book? They are all in the business to make money not let sharps kill them.
