He will stick it dead in your ass as soon as he knows you can think logically and make profitable bets.

Bookmaker is better with allowing sharp action but 5 dimes has a better betting variety to choose from. Difference is Tony will kick you to the curb if he knows you are sharp while Bookmaker is a real book and will find a way to make money with your information and never cut you off as long as you play by the rules (don't past post, don't try to circumvent limits etc).

If you're gonna believe what every fukkin person writes on here, then don't gamble with any online books...because every book has bad things about them.


You know why you see so many "5dimes" threads? Because everyone plays with them...Why does everyone play with them? Because they are about as good as you can get for online gambling for Americans.

But honestly, what are the odds of anyone on SBR actually being "sharp" and being kicked out of 5dimes?

Maybe 3 people out of the 200K here? I'm sure there have been multiple people kicked out of 5dimes, but it sure as hell wasn't for being "sharp" it was for trying to shots at them, or he didn't want to put up with the persons bitching, so he gives them the money they have in the account and tells them to go somewhere else.

It all makes sense

No doubt if you're a losing gambler that just likes a ton of options.

Well no book will accept shot taking. He will send you to the curb if he knows you are a winner but your 1st statement is obviously accurate as well. I had a -105 credit account that he was booking a piece of. After 3 months of football season he cut the account off (which is fine, you don't want the action just pay me and we go separate ways) and prorated the whole 3 months as if it were a -110 account and paid me that figure as apposed to the -105 I was betting at. About a 4k difference.

Gates, you are as sharp as a tack, brother.

^^^^^
This, real players moving real money across Pinnacle,CRIS,Grande and even 5 Dimes credit/pph

Don't know what a forum is
Don't want to know what a forum is
could care less about freeplay or contest
contest/freeplay winning are about 1% to 0.25 % of their vig
Think anyone who waste all day here is a moron
and when it settle up day they don't want to wait more than 5 minutes

So you were pulling down over 25K a month through football and he booted you?

he is exactly right here...u sure dont get kicked out just because u are a winning player...thats a FACT...shot taking and steam chasing is different story...theres a reason they are #1

tony stories are also VERY over-hyped...ive dealt with him several times and hes been VERY fair with me and treated me fine, but i also wasnt a dick to him so maybe thats why..show respect get the same, ive seen OPs on here be a total ass to CS and think CS is going to suppose kiss their ass no matter what...they wont and shouldnt

[relaaxx]

Is it true he will kick you out if you continue winning and withdrawing? I thought they were an A book and A books don't do that. I've read threads about him saying he is god etc... and is getting me to think twice about keeping my money in that book.

tony is fair, most of the time. everyone regrets things they say sometimes. he has been pissed off enough to say some wierd stuff(like the god thing), but if i have a problem i would rather deal with him than any other person that runs a sportsbook. the 1 exception would be jon from betislands, he is unbelievable with the way he handles his sportsbook, noone comes close to him.

Not getting into specifics of the figures (there is not enough information in the previous post for you to come to any conclusion on what the total figure was. It was a -105 account but everything wasn't -105 like quarters,team totals, and other props). Long story short is once he knew this was an advantage account he felt it was within his rights to prorate my account at -110 on all the bets that he was offering at -105 lines and paid me accordingly.

[big0mar]

Any book will kick you out if you are winning enough

[jmathes]

What pisses me off the most about 5dimes is they will slow pay you like no other. When your down and request a payout theres no problem with getting paid. All of a sudden when youre up a few dimes its like pulling teeth to get paid. Earlier this year I was up about $6,000 in my account and requested a payout and they stalled and stalled. All of a sudden I had to reverify all my authorization forms and resubmit all my credentials as well. This process literally took over 3 hours all of which lasted over a two week and 4-5 phone calls. On top of all this there customer service really has gone down hill. When you call them there agents are as rude as it gets. The tone they use is annoying as hell. I took my business elsewhere and probably will never go back. I was really bummed I had to take my business elsewhere because they do off alot of betting opions, which I love.

I am not trying to advertise for BetIslands but their customer service and payouts are far superior than any other book out there (other than my local). And if you know what youre doing and are patient you can really capitalize off their great 100% freeplay/bonuses. Ive cashed out twice since the past few months and there were no problems whatsoever.

The biggest tip I can give anyone is to find a local or two. Having your money in various offshore accounts is a huge risk considering everything that has happened in the industry over the past year or so.

[5mike5]

ive never waited for a payout and im a winning player there....NEVER been slow payed

BUT then again i only used p2p back when i deposited, exactly why was to aviod the verification process when i make my withdrawl requests...when u dont have to send docs there is no excuse to slow pay...might want to try that next time

but if u can deal with 1/4 the options of 5dimes and no MLs except 3-10 pts it may suit ur needs better, BI its a good 2nd choice

[smoke a bowl]

I know nothing about their payout methods with postup accounts. I wouldn't post up anywhere in this day and age.

I did use p2p 3mike... I used it to deposit and used it to withdraw. Like I said before when you're down a little and want a withdraw everything is gravy, but when your up and want a withdraw they slow pay. If I had time like JJGold or better yet cared to give them another dollar, I would make a video of it because its rather comical on how they act when I request a payout.

[5mike5]

im up also at 5dimes and never had a problem making a single withdrawl there...but u said u had to send verification, and if u deposit p2p u never have to send docs no matter what?

regardless, sorry to hear that buddy...never right to try and slow=pay, but u never hear that really about them, and ive never been slow payed either..actually 28 hrs most ive ever waited for a p2p withdrawl there...yesterday got it same night as requested....sucks to hear u had a problem man, hiope ur future plays are good 1s!

I had a good run using his book for about 1.5 years, i got the boot because I was beating the steam not beating him out of tons of money. In most case scenarios if your account is flagged for showing any life of knowing what your doing your done or limited to point its not worth your time. Thats my experience. I really pissed him off when all I was betting was boxing and soccer so I got him back some.

One night I listened to him talk about how he has the best television/multi media setup in all of Costa Rica It was so awkward and had no idea how it got brought up.

Say you want about about the guy but you will get paid if you have it coming to you.

[mathdotcom]

Almost any book will

The question is how soon

[BrianLaverty]

I'm up 5 figures lifetime on them and theyve never even hinted at me being limited. And never had to wait longer then a week for a payout.....
