I still say 5Dimes is the way to go for baseball if your a recreational player that bets nickels, and haven't had your limits cut. But just watch out for those delays.

They have no outstanding complaints or processing issues levied against them at this time. Not to mention they offer some pretty good payment solutions for U.S. players (Echecks most notably 300 max./14 day hold). Plus they offer one free fedex payout per month that you will usually get within about 3-5 business days.

The bonus they offer for new customers is a 50% free play with a 5x rollover, and 20% reload bonuses.

They use the ASI software (Which is nice IMO), not to mention the fact that 5Dimes has a couple of mirror sites, which helps during the down times:

propbet.com
www2.5dimes.com

Did I mention nickel overnight lines (till 8am est), and offers a lot of prop wagering options.

Here is the vig breakdowns 5Dimes, and a few of the other wagering options they have to offer:

.10 up to -176
.15 up to -201
.20 up to -266
.25 up to -280
.30 up to -346
.35 up to -361
.40 up to -386
.45 up to -421
.50 up to -461

Overnight Lines: Yes *See Nickel Lines Chart Below
Reverse Run Lines: Yes
5-inning lines: Yes: RLs, MLs & Totals
Reduced Juice Totals: Yes**
Reduced Juice RLs: Yes**
Grand Salami Totals: Yes
Team Totals: Yes


Overnight Nickel Lines Chart

.05 up to -162
.06 up to -165
.07 up to -193
.08 up to -196
.09 up to -198
.10 up to -251
.11 up to -253
.12 up to -255
.13 up to -257
.14 up to -258
.15 up to -266
.16 up to -270
.17 up to -273
.18 up to -276
.19 up to -278
.20 up to -310


The one complaint I do have against them though. I don't like the fact that they always have problems grading their prop bets. They are notorious for mis-grading those thing and their rules for those seem to have a very gray area IMHOO.

I know Bet Jam actually pays a bit more on their deal, so my buddy Dan likes to quote 5D as checks being delivered within 3-5 business days, but the correct time would be within 2-3 business days. It ever taking longer (at least for someone in USA) is a complete rarity.
