Matchbook has better lines, toward the start of the game.
Matchbook offer your the chance to post lines up at whatever odds you want to give. Instead of taking a line for -110 at 5dimes, why not offer it at +103 at matchbook?
Matchbook don't offer NCAAB half times
5dimes has more betting options, parlay, teaser, 5 cent MLB
5dimes has more funding methods.
5dimes has lower limits on many reduce betting stuff.

They both do book to book transfer with each other, why not open both account and put some money in each. And when one runs out just transfer funds from one to another.

Default Matchbook

You should have both. Matchbook for the baseball season is far and away the best book.

Agree with Chuck, you gotta have both of these books.

I need both because MB does not offer handicaps and totals in tennis and 5dimes has a lot of options that MB does not offer, but need both for trading purposes and prices.

5 Dimes will limit you on their reduced juice real quick, Matchbook will never limit you. Case Closed.

5 Dimes. They have more betting options, quicker lines, plus you dont have to worry about poor liquidity at mb when trying to get down some $$$

2 good books to use, nice to have both

matchbook will have a better line most of the time, but it's good to keep an eye on both books and their many lines offered and line changes if you have the time

They are both must outs for the serious bettor, and overall I'd say Matchbook is better. But their college basketball liquidity, particularly on totals, has been very disappointing thus far this year.
