    5 Dimes people that have been limited for winning by Tony..

    Just wondering what is going on here.

    I have played at 5 Dimes a few times. Havent won there, so I dont have this experience....

    but I have read about people getting limited at 5 Dimes because of winning, and then having trouble cashing out while getting harrassed by "Tony" the head of 5 dimes? Is this true? what does he say? I thought they were an A+ book?

    anyone have this happen to them?

    I have been limited and no longer bother playing there.
    Never any problem cashing out
    No experience of Tony

    I really don't think anyone has a reason to worry about getting their cash out at 5D.

    They will lower your limits, but they will pay you!

    I've had my limits reduced in several markets (reduced, props, etc.), not so much in others, never head from Tony personally, never had a problem being paid or really any problem with them at all. Been using them for years.

    Being limited is part of the game at many books. If the lowered limits make the book useless to you, take your business elsewhere.

    I had reduced juice lowered to $50 max bets because I won too much. Never talked to Tony though but I always get paid by 5D

    they probably lower the limits very low but rarely kick someone out, i have only heard of a few guys mention they were totally cut off

    My limits were slashed by 5Dimes after constantly winning. Payouts are quick. No troubles whatsoever.

    Once u r put down to $50 and a 45 second delay its not worth it. he knows that. You will always be paid.

    Can you please exlain exactly how/what 'the delay' manifests itself at 5dimes?
    I have had issues with line changes right before I enter my confirmation password, and was admonished a while back for refreshing the live lines too frequently, but I don't think that's what's being discussed as the 45 second delay.


    Thanks In advance

    when u get the delay u will know it. everything goes white after the confirm button. you can get a sandwich or use the john then come back to see if its accepted or line changed on you. usually between 15 and 45 secs. delay time depends on how much he hates you.

    Yep, this is my situation also. Reliable recreational book. Nothing more, nothing less.

    I complained about the delay on chat. Tony came on and I asked if there was anything he could do about my 30 sec delay. He said "How would you like 45?". LOL

    At this point, I knew it was time to go. As everyone has said here they pay promptly, even those who are on the way out.

    That is kind of charming of him. Just to offer a little longer delay , or then a permanent one. Normally he expresses an urge to have a sex with your mother and not really in a form of request. I wonder when will somebody catch this guy and put him on a hospital care for a while where they can decrease his ego and work on his manners.

    So who would someone get's booted? Play straight bets with a regular juice , win a little ( 40-50k) and you are gone like a shit from the body or what?

    You hit the mark about Tony........He would never say the things he types in person....He won't even talk over the phone...That chickenshit bastard.
