Default 5 Dimes

Have any of you used them, and how have you found them to be? There have been some earlier posts of them booting some players out. I like their reduced juice option, even if it only has a $500 limit. Do they kick you out for winning?

Do they kick you out for winning? Absolutely. They do pay though. They're not even in theGreek, WSEX, or Matchbook's stratosphere obviously. If you play for small amounts and like a wide variety of options you'll love them. If you want a more serious book you need to play with one of the books listed above. GL...

I mean what is considered winning? If you stay within their $500 low juice limit and win a few thou, do they boot you? Or are you talking about dime bets...thanks

5Dimes is a good book from a safety standpoint indeed, however they do boot players that feel they can beat them.

They do offer a very nice selection of prop bets and all (better than TheGreek IMO), however I wouldn't recommend playing them there until they make their grading rules more stable than they currently have.

They don't like it if you get a better line than the closing line.

Don't take a bonus if you want -105.

I think their A- is justified eyeball. They pay and pay fast, and that is certainly what is most important. They've had a few minor issues and are certainly not on the A+ books' level, so I think they're right where they should be...

I like 5Dimes, have been using them all FB season. I am a small player so a $500 limit is OK.

i like their reduced juice and some of their props bets i cannot find elsewhere. as an usa player they are the only sight i know of that offers multiple run lines on baseball which is a must for some of my plays. they have , however, put my bets on a delay, and on several occasions i have not been able to make a play because the line changes or the game starts while i am in delay mode waiting for a confirmation (i miss pinnacle)
