RIP, I'm sure there are a lot of broken hearts regardless of what some people may think

Also a lot younger than I would have thought

Sean was born and raised a few miles up the road from me and spent his college days in the town I’m from and live today. He became famous consistently beating all the local bookies, eventually no one would take his action. He rented off of one of my best friends. I had a sports forum from the early 2000’s until a few years ago and 5 dimes was an affiliate. Spoke to him dozens of times while living in South America only to find out later that “Tony” was really Sean that lived in the same town as me and we knew many of the same people. He was always fair with me and one of if not the sharpest line maker’s in the industry. After spending a quarter of my life in Latin America it’s a real shame that smart money has it that those closest to him we’re involved and wouldn’t surprise me if authorities are directly or indirectly complicit. Odds are whoever is responsible will never be brought to justice unless the highest levels of the US govt would get involved. Which more than likely won’t happen since they wanted him in jail. Real shame. Seemed to be a nice guy. If you’re a gringo with money in Latin America youve got a bullseye on your back and need to know when it’s time to cash in your chips and get out.

My thoughts on this.


I have heard a lot of negative things about Tony.


But I have used 5dimes for a very long time. Always have experienced nothing but professionalism and respect from them. No issues ever with any deposit or withdrawal. And the best options out there. The way an organization operates is a direct reflection on senior leadership.


As a businessman I can respect that, and therefore I respect Tony.

I hear what you’re saying Justin, but especially in an industry such as this, it’s best to take “hearsay” and gossip with a grain of salt. You’re going to find bettors that have hard-ons for every out in the industry, some complaints legitimate and others not. I always based my opinions on how I was treated, and “Tony” was always fair with me and others I know. Just like pinnacle was just like the Greek was.

Haha I'm sure all books roll out the red carpet for you, given the accuracy of your "predictions".

I base my opinions of 5dimes on my experiences. Although I read numerous negative reports regarding Tony, I have no opinion of him as I've never dealt with him directly. I do have an opinion on 5dimes and I will never use them again due to fraudulent credit card purchases on cards I used on their site. They clearly have corruption with the processors they use and don't seem to be too concerned with it. The final straw was when I got a card that I only used with their site and had a fraudulent issues within weeks of the transaction.

Had 5dimes cut my limits once on a hot streak, but business is business.


Thoughts are with his family

if I were you I would’ve asked to speak with him, I bet he would’ve resolved it. Unfortunately you have to be extremely careful giving financial info to sports books and processors especially in Latin America. Crime and corruption are endemic.

his mom and dad are gone, dad passed last year. No brothers or sisters. Just has his kids with his Costa Rican wife. Sure hoping that she wasn’t involved for the kids’ sake. Has/had a wife/girlfriend that had a house a few miles away from me, she’s in Pittsburgh now and has had her hands full with US law enforcement after receiving 700K in Amazon gift cards from him a couple years ago.

You rarely get out alive once a hostage in Latin America. They never planned on releasing him. His death was the objective.
