So how do they make money?

They take a small percent I think.

Although I'm still not exactly sure how Matchbook works.

LOL, I had my battle with this Tony character also.

5D dropped my limits to 200.00 and then to 100.00. They capped any boxing or MMA parlays on me to 50.00 after I had a heated chat with Tony. He threatened to suspend my parlay ability completely.

At the time, I had over 30K with them. I have debated if I should go back with them(with a small amount of money) because I do love their MMA and Boxing prop bets. But Tony is a complete jack ass.

Who do you use now?

I know a lot of you guys use 5dimes for prop bets in MMA. I would just be careful check this thread out http://forum.sbrforum.com/sportsbooks-i ... html?slf=2 It seems when 5dimes doesnt want to pay they say the line is human error. Fucking scumbags.

Thats pretty shitty of 5dimes from the looks of it. I like how this Tony guy kept asking the dude what he thinks the line should have been. Like it's our job to tell oddsmakers what the lines should be all of a sudden.

I think it was a bad line .If a player is 4-1 to be in the top 10 common sense tells you he shouldnt be 20-1 to be in the top 20.
Bad lines get cancelled all the time this is nothing new

Yeah but he bet it two different times. Once at 20/1, and once at 15/1 I would think thats something they'd have caught sooner. He couldn't have been the only person to have bet the line at 20/1 or 15/1 seeing as it shifted so far between his bets.

I know its shitty .

Back about 6+ years ago books use to play if they put up a bad line. I use to bet all kinds of bad lines at sportsinteraction and they always paid back then
