Dime Line Sportsbooks

Written August 10, 2007 by Jack Jones

If you plan on betting baseball, you need to be signed up at a book that offers dime (or 10 cent) lines. It’s as simple as that. Most baseball sportsbooks provide 20 cent lines, which puts you at even more of a disadvantage. What’s the big difference? Well, at your standard 20 cent book, the baseball lines will have a difference of 20 (-20 to be exact), meaning that when you compare the odds, they will look something like this: Yankees -150/Red Sox +130. The difference at a dime line sportsbook comes as a better line on the underdog in the contest. So, at a dime line book, the line on the same game would look something like: Yankees -150/Red Sox +140. Now, that extra 10 cents might not seem like much at the time, but over the course of the season you vastly improve your odds of winning, especially if you bet a lot of underdogs. Here we’ve provided a list of some of the top dime line sportsbooks you can find online. You will want to note that not all books treat the dime line the same, so be sure to check their rules to see where the cutoffs are.

5Dimes – This book offers dime lines up to -176 on all baseball money lines. The great thing about 5Dimes is that, not only are they one of the best books for dime lines, they also offer 5 cent overnight lines on baseball games. We’ve searched for other quality books that offer something similar, but there’s no comparison!

Sportsbook.com – Offers a dime line all the way up to -180. If you like taking big underdogs, this would be a great place for you to open an account. They are also one of the most popular books out there, meaning they know how to treat their customers right.

Bodog – They offer a dime line up to -149 odds, but their overnight lines are 20 cents, so be sure you wait to take advantage. Bodog doesn’t have as high of a dime line as the other books, but we like them for their great bonuses and easy-to-use betting interface.

BetUS – They will give you dime lines up to -139, which is lower than the other sportsbooks books on our list, but BetUS more than makes up for it with their industry-leading bonuses, loyalty program, and other membership perks!
