All games, or just TV games ?

They already do TV games, so that wouldn't be new.

I'd love to see a dimeline overnight.

Now if they offer those lines at decent limits, it would be cool.

To clarify, we are planning on expanding our reduced offerings on basketball from the "Basketball - National TV Only" format to "Basketball - All Games" on March 1. -105 / -105 on sides, moneylines, totals. More details will be available soon in the "Rewards & Promotions" page on the website.

A maximum of $500 per wager. When the line is moved, or the limit monitor is reset, you may wager again on the event

While I have your attention, and you seem to be a representative of 5dimes, I would like to have a discussion about this. Im not complaining, I am attempting to understand.

Why would a limit, on the NCAA Tournament be 500 bucks? This is one of the most wagered on events of the year. Its not like a thursday night Bucknell vs Sienna game. 500 dollar limits are extremely low, almost to the point of ridiculous.

Please help me understand this. What is the motivation for such low limits?

Thanks

These internet only "Reduced Juice" lines are available as an alternate option to the full juice lines. Limits at -110/-110 prices are $5000 or more per wager. 5Dimes has been offering reduced juice on selected events for years now at limits of $500. The $500 model on reduced juice works well for us. These reduced offerings in no way affect our regular wagering option limits.

$500 limits on -105 offers are they only way to go for a book like 5Dimes imo. I think thats more than OK if you can make more bets on the same event later.

Higher limits and -105 can get you killed really fast, remember Cascade and where they are now.
Its good to see that 5Dimes seem to know what they are doing.

What deposit methods are left for a US citizen at 5 dimes? I opened an account, but all the deposit methods listed seem to be ones that have left the US.
