5dimes is the Worst Sportsbook of All-Time!!

How about the web site breaking down every Sunday before kickoff.  How about advertising you get plus 10% on winning

horse bets and not able to get it.  How about closing the horse

race 10 minutes before post time.  How about those football numbers.  Every number has a money line attached to it.  5 dimes

does not give up a penny.  How about the halftime numbers, if

you try to get a number it is always gone and they make you take

a bad number. 

Golfkat, I play the NY tracks and I have never seen a difference with the post times.

Then you are not betting with 5 dimes.  I  tried to put a bet in at

hollywood and they closed the race when the horses where at

the bottom of the backstretch, walking back to the starting gate

that was in the chute.  You never know when they are going to

close the race.

I've been with 5 Dimes for almost 12 years.

To each his own 

im new to the industry....whats considered a bad line,and why is it your fault if they have it up  for wagering?

 

this is a horrible, horrilbe story and if true, this wouldnt fair well for tony if this was my money.

in fact, it owuldve ended very badly for him.

To those of you that bet no more than a couple hundred a play and deposit and request withdrawals via Money-gram or Western Union then 5dimes is probably a great book to play at. They offer many wagering options. Most people will put up with the worst customer service as a trade off for betting options.  If they ever really have to deal with Tony or go on a run for thousands then they will have wished they had played elsewhere. If that doesn't happen then all is well and to each his own. A pissing match over books in a forum will help nobody.

Listen, if they post a bad line and you win.  They should pay off, what happens when you lose the bet? They WILL NOT refund your bet.  If you lose the bet they won't put the money in your

account and say you went into a bad number there was not bet.

I am surprised this situation does not come up more ofter.  Tony

could make plenty pulling that stunt.

Looks like opinions both ways on this place. Who is this "Tony" guy?

Is he the manager there?

Please educate yourself of the rules of the book before you respond so forcefully in the future

Van, a link was provided for you where Tony the PunkBitch is acting like a child and threatening dan777.

Why would anyone in they're right mind want to do any business with this scumbag.

Hey... lemme add my 2 cents.  I moved over to 5Dimes from BoDog a few years ago and have had ZERO problems with this bunch.  Payouts have been extremely quick.  Western Union payments in hand in 2-3 business days... unbelievable.

Absolutely no complaints from this very satisfied customer.

In my experience people that complain about slow grading of winning wagers don't have enough money to be gambling anyway and likely lose a lot and bet more than they should.

Further 5d has mirror sites that have always worked for me regardless of when you are trying to get in and I play a lot of in game lines.

As far as payouts, I have never had an issue in the past and in fact have received my money faster than other sites I have used in the past.

My only frustration has been them limiting in game wager amounts for some games for me but aside from that if you are looking offshore I have not played with a better book in today's gambling environment.

On a side note, if you know the rules about bad lines you are smart enough not to bet them regardless of what customer service tells you. Most of us have seen bad lines on the site and it's easy to just stay away from those games. I think both tony and the player have a valid argument with regard to the 40k however if you avoid the bad lines to begin with you never have to worry about that.

I have been with 5dimes for years.  I have lost plenty just like anybody, but I have also won a load of cash with them as well.  I was paid 5-figures a couple times, no problem at all.

I played at 5Dimes forever too and about a year ago they started pulling all kinds od crap. Canceled wagers,suspending acct and making me prove that I didn't violate T&C'S,bounced checks,and the list goes on forever. And when you contact Tony you ate guilty until proven innocent. They froze me and confiscated my funds because a clerk said I was betting correlated parlays. I was locked out and Tony flipped on me. I made him review my acct himself and he found no correlated plays whatsoever. He never apologized but did reopen my acct and acted like I was supposed to thank him. I was guilty of nothing but had to prove it.

Dump this book because they are going downhill fast and there are several better options like Heritage and YouWager.

This site just robbed me of 10k....from the same guy Tony, first time i actually make big money after spending money constantly losing on 5 dimes...which is of course my fault, blame is all on me

and htis is from someone who has always had nothing but good stuff to say about 5dimes....until you actually win money and talk to the owner....guy is an absolute omnipotent prick
