5Dimes Parlays-Buying Points

JinnRikki · Oct 25, 2013

I've been buying points in parlays at 5Dimes for years. Today, all of a sudden
I'm not allowed. Anyone else have this problem? I haven't done anything wrong
to my knowledge, unless losing my shirt to them is against their rules now.

They are doing you a favor.

STOP buying points.

Buying points in parlays is much more advantageous than buying them in straight plays. But thanks for your non-help.

Fixed it. Seems Firefox is having a nervous breakdown today, time to reinstall I guess. Thanks for the help skippy.

I remember the greek used to let you do that which I enjoyed greatly when they used to service the U.S. and I can truly say buying points on parlays saved my bacon more times than I can say.

The fact that you play parlays, tells me how little you know about betting.

I play a 5 team $35 parlay every week.... I am up a good bit from hit.... Ive hit 3 already in college and NFL combined.... Now you shouldnt try to make a living parlaying but one for fun is fine...

I play parlays (and teasers) and if you use them properly they are very effective. I occasionally will buy points in a parlay if I want to get a line off a key number. For years I have had to argue with the dickheads that say "teasers are for suckers". If they are for suckers why have all the books raised the juice on teasers and why does 5dimes adjust the spread that you use for teasers? Last time I was in Vegas I had a hard time finding somewhere to play 2 team football teasers.
