I understand what you are saying about their freeroll but you dont know that they wouldn't have honored it. It seems like they would have . The wager amount has nothing to do with the situation. I only mentioned it because it was ridiculous that 5dimes would let me post about it on the forums for a small amount. Arguing that the amount of the wager should make me stop posting about it, is a stupid and invalid point. Would you not argue about an extra $20 charge on your credit card because it's only $20 even though it was wrong? View Post \| View Thread	walkingman	10	July 13, 2013 View Post \| View Thread
replied to 5dimes issue - in Gaming Industry - US Quote Originally Posted by slike: you've asked for an opinion on several forums, but dont seem to like the opinions you recieve? I wanted opinions from people that understood the situation. Saying ' I am complaining that I got a better line' is saying that I asked for the wager to be cancelled AFTER it was over and cited it was a bad line which is false. The facts are simple: 5dimes has admitted it was a bad line and SBR banned me to protect their beloved company. The fact that 5dimes would cancel the wager of +310 if it had won and everybody would agree with the book is where the argument is. You shouldn't be able to play both sides of the street and cancel a wager for bad line but let a wager with a bad line stand. If 5dimes declined it was a bad line then I could see an argument that I am wrong but since they admitted to a bad line, I cannot see how they are right.

Apparently you don't understand the concept of a bad line and that 5dimes would have voided it if the +310 won. It was an obvious free-roll for them. The book admits it was a bad line but it was okay because I am sure they won money on the wager. If the +310 won and they voided out the wager, everyone would be saying the book was right because it was a bad line so why is it right and they can have it both ways? The line was not even close to being accurate. Move on, you don't understand the issue. View Post \| View Thread	walkingman	10	July 11, 2013 View Post \| View Thread
created a topic 5dimes issue - in Gaming Industry - US Before sharing my issue below, I was told to post in the forum if I felt that was how I wanted to resolve my issue because Matt from SBR said I didn't have a case. I posted the information below and around 12 hours later, I am banned for no reason. I guess SBR really needs to protect 5dimes from a forum post about a $50 wager. "I placed an in-game wager on the 2nd inning of a baseball game the other day. When placing an in-game wager on innings, there are normally two choices( Hits or Runs line). I placed a wager on a line for -.5 hits of that inning. About 5-10 minutes later, I was placing a wager for the following inning(3rd inning) which means the game was still in the 2nd inning and I noticed that the odds on my -.5 HITS was reversed with the RUNS line for that inning. The odds that I had were -.5 hits at +310 when it should have been around +160-+175 which means 5dimes reversed the lines by accident. Once I realized the mistake, knowing that it was a bad line and I didn't want to take any chances, I went into livechat to report the error. (This was all before the inning was over so there is no guarantee if I would have won or lost the wager) When I reported it to livechat, I was told that it was a valid line. I asked how that could be since it was clearly obvious the lines were switched by mistake. The rep went to the line manager to come back saying the same thing that it was valid. After that incident, I filled out a SBR form and I was told to talk to Becky or Tony about the issue. I talked to Becky on livechat and she admitted that the wager was a bad line but laughed at me, saying that I was complaining about having such good odds. I tried to tell Becky that it was before the inning was over and that if the +310 side won, I guarantee that it would have been cancelled due to a bad line and I didn't want to take any chances. Becky refused to do anything about the issue and said the wager stands. After that chat, I talked to Matt from SBR who said he doesn't feel like I have a case and I shouldn't pursue any farther. The wager is small($50) and now I am having to post about it on the forum when I tried to resolve it without going here. So, my question to every is -- Is it okay that 5dimes acknowledges it was a bad line yet chooses to do nothing about it? I feel that if my side won(+310) it would have been voided instantly. Opinions are welcome --" View Post \| View Thread	walkingman	10	July 11, 2013 View Post \| View Thread

replied to Serena v Robson INGAME in Tennis Well so much for hoping Robson takes the first set. SW takes it 6-2 but Robson did have a couple of chances for break so maybe just maybe she will turn it around View Post \| View Thread	walkingman	15	May 14, 2013 View Post \| View Thread

replied to is serena motivated here? in Tennis I went with Robson here. I can see Serena not trying in the 1st set and giving up in the 2nd if down a set. Who knows but it is worth the +735 imo View Post \| View Thread	bigdaddy911	5	May 14, 2013 View Post \| View Thread
