I opened an account with these guys a couple of months ago. No bonus for initial deposit or redeposits. I received a $200.00 bonus for placing over $5,000.00 in wagers. The catch is that you can only use the bonus to place wagers. You cannot take it out as a withdrawal. Even if you place a winning wager...you only receive your winnings. This is what they call "Match Play". You can only use your bonus to place wagers, win or lose, you forfeit the bonus once you have placed a wager. Am I missing out? Has anyone else received any other bonuses from 5 Dimes?

They offer 20% match play on first deposit of max 5000 and reloads are 20% match plays on max. 2500

So bacially you are missing out :-)

This is standard for 5 dimes.
The way to get most of the bonus out, is to bet it on a player to win at long odds, something like golf is a good one, then lay the player on Betfair, whatever the result you will get to keep most of your bonus.

What are you getting at? It's still a profitable bonus for a good player and you're money is almost 100% guaranteed IMO.

5dimes is first rate without a doubt.

however what happens if you reload your account for 2500, get a 20% matchplay for 500 upon reaching 12,500 in action, but you lose it all before the rollover is completed?

[DrSlamm]

you redeposit and get another bonus and continue clearing

[Kaka]

correct. Isen´t it weird though that they don´t pay the bonus when you loose your balance? Most books does that don´t they?

[DrSlamm]

its a much better business model to do it the way 5dimes does.. this prevents you from clearing your WR by busting.
