Having 20 outs is over rated. Timing is far more important than line shopping.

I have no problem depositing, and if you're with a good book, there should be no problem withdrawing.

I use 5dimes.

1. I call 5dimes and get name of person and country to send it to
2. I drive to Wal Mart and deposit using Money Gram. (Takes 3 minutes to fill out form & 7 minutes for clerk to send)
3. I call 5dimes and give them control number (20 minutes later it's in my account and ready for action)
4. Win
5. Request up to $990 Money Gram withdraw from 5dimes website
6. 24 hours later call 5dimes and ask for control number for Money Gram withdrawal
7. Go to Wal Mart and get my money

I can handle that.
that is until you get blacklisted from moneygram which is inevitable

What are other options if you live in the Midwest and don't do the local thing? I hate the whole idea of using a face-to-face local.

Obviously playing offshore is not what is use to be.. But sick of it ? absolutely not..I like Vegas as much as the next guy, but you can't be in Vegas 24/7 or still have 3-4 decent shops at your disposal to play in evening when trying to get down on a game. I'm definatly not sick of playing at 5dimes because they offer me more options then any book in Vegas..and that's a fact... If you want to deposit into a offshore book you can....If you want to get a withdrawl you can..Its not like you have to do either everyday..

Honestly.... can you count on 5dimes not to severely limit or flush you if you are even a small (but consistent) winner?

It's been said for years that they are very careful to want only rank amateurs.... because the lines are so loaded toward the favorites? And, yea I know, they deal more than one line and all.

But really... can we win from them and still be able to play?

Until 5dimes limits you, its an advantage to play there.. I would rather play there then worry about "what ifs".... I'm not Bigbet with big bankrolls, but have done very well over the years there and still playing.

i know after being taken to the cleaners with the neteller thing yrs ago and some of the outs that went out of business, i know for myself i keep smaller amounts in the outs i use today.....Pinny, Bookmaker and 5 dimes are the only outs i deal with these days, i dont need the smaller books with the crap bonues on rollovers.

AMEN ckid! Would not even be worth it to go into the "bad math" of these stupid bonus systems. Lets just say they are rigged so people stand a snowball's chance of ever making a W/D.

Small, moronic players are eaten up with them anyway. That's why books keep offering them!

Let me explain to you what happened to you when you went to make that deposit at moneygram that day.

You did not get blacklisted at moneygram. The person you were sending the money to got blacklisted.
This happens all the time. You just so happened to be given the name of a sender who got blacklisted in between the time they gave you the senders name and the time you went to mg to send the money to this person.

This is the reason why you send 10 different deposits to 10 different recievers with the same sportsbook.
These names that you send money to get blacklisted all the time. The sportsbooks have to constantly keep changing the receivers because as soon as mg an wu figure out that they are receiving money for sportsbooks they get blacklisted.

You did not get blacklisted. The person you were sending money to that day got blacklisted.

If you tried to send a mg today I'm sure it would go right through

Chop, the same thing happened to me. The guy was blacklisted and they told me I would be as well. That's how it works. They also blacklist because they know why you're sending money.

How do you have an account at Pinnacle?

KON is right here as well, I mean, I've seen both cases happen where only the receiver is banned and not the sender... Seems like JC will never let us forget he is banned from MG. Talks about it twice a week.

You may be right in some cases but I would guess over 90% of the time mg won't go through the trouble of blacklisting the sender. I guess its possible but unlikely. The best way to find out is wait a few days and send another one at a different location and see what happens

Hey Chop...... I know there are all the rules about who advertises and who does not. Understood. Sort of kills the exchange of valuable information sometimes, but....... still understood.

Would be nice to know what solid books have dependable ways to deposit and W/D by cards. With some privacy..... don't have to run back and forth to WU or MG.

Hate to get back to the heart of the matter...... but damn, I do miss the good ole days!
