But if you want to know the secret to making $250,000.00 to $500k from a $1 bet I will tell you.

Simply do a 10 team parlay with all underdogs.

5Dimes likes to post bad or semi bad lines on props and live lines.  Then they wait for players to bet them and if you win they cancel your bet and if you lose they keep the money.  I've been at 5dimes since the late 90s and they post those fishy lines all the time hoping to catch you.  Beware.  Then Tony gets involved if you complain and you get posts like this one and he shuts down your account.

Wow....that makes perfect sense! I think you hit the nail on the head there. 

That's straight up wrong in my opinion what they are doing. Not sure how they justify that in their minds, other than "The player is dishonest for trying to bet a bad line"

But what about the small percentage of people who bet the bad lines and are ignorant to the fact and had no idea? Tony is not going to care about them, and still take their money.

But I am not surprised that 5dimes would do all this. The entire world is run by criminals.

But on a prop line, how would even an semi-experienced bettor know for sure it was a bad line? 

That is just fucked up. I will be VERY CAREFUL if I ever use 5dimes again in the future. I was looking forward to using them again, but not really after hearing all of this....lol

Not a snowflake's chance in hell they would pay. They would come up with an excuse saying you cheated or you got a bad line somewhere in there.

First, a 10 banger with all dogs is extremely unlikely to occur in one night, (but if youre a true degen, and have a solid number of open 10 banger parlays for $1 or $2, and only put dogs in, you do have a significantly better chance) but nevertheless, different books do have different liability limits, for one bet ticket, for 24 hours, etc.  I would look into the fine print of your book to make sure you would never place a parlay wager that if won, would only get paid out to the book's max liability risk.

5dimes Max payout WAS $250,000 and now it's up to $500,000

You'd figure they would honor that since it's in THEIR rules and limits. But now we know they break their own rules (with the 32k case) and I guess if they saw you won a half million for a $1 bet, they would be pissed. 

But to say there is no chance in hell they'd pay you. That is unbelievably shady. I cannot believe how mad I'd be, if I won a 10 team underdog parlay and thought I had half mil, and then found out they weren't going to pay it out.

Straight up criminal. They'll take your money for the bets...but they won't pay you when you win.

Well, thanks very much for that info. I really appreciate this. Now I KNOW not to risk that. Even vegas has a 200 to 1 max payout on ML parlays to cover their fools, as they know that there ARE nights when all the dogs won.

I hit a 7 teamer a few years back with my underdog system and the payout was $90,000.00 for a $5 bet. But my luck I missed that bet, I never got a chance to bet it. So, who knows if they would of paid me. Had I bet, it would of been on 5dimes!

I had a prop with a player who was a starter in hoops.  Didn't start so I figured the bet would be no action.  Took it up with Tony and he wanted to close my account.  That was a $100 play.  NOW, the guys that won the side of the bet, they probably no actioned their plays and said he was a usual starter who didn't start.  NO ACTION.

Easy money.  Hard to lose when there's zero risk.

No mgmprofits, I didn't claim that i bet 10 grand a day...i said i had 9000 in my account at the time...I don't bet close to 10 grand a day, to be honest i only bet a couple hundred a day, i'm by no means rich and despite gaining funds and being up positive money  on betonline and other sites...i did have a losing record for a few grand on 5dimes already b4 this happening, which is why at the time it made me so upset, because first they took my bet back (which hey is understandable after the fact, even though it was only because i mentioned it to them about how they must have lost alot of money on that game which was stupid of me, but it still was understandable that they could take back a bet for a bad line.....but then to take an extra 50 dollars off the bet for no reason whatsoever is what got me upset but not like over the top upset, just wondering what happened....but then to avoid me constantly for hours and leave me waiting on the phone with customer service 5 different times for 2 hours...and then i finally get a hold of tony through live chat...he tells me to wait some more...then gets upset when i say something to him about it... and then also shut down my account....which like i said is the first time i have made a decent amount of money on the site, tells you all you have to know about how they treat people when they actually start winning money on their site.....and btw for the record, I always loved 5 dimes as a site even when i was losing money...i loved all the options for bets and the great lines....but after this, are you kidding me?   just an absolute joke that Tony guy is...
