Not sure if many of you play there, but these have popped up on the sportsbook subreddit over the last few days. Might want to change your passwords if you're playing there.

I don't know what other options you guys have in the US for books, but I'd be leaving 5Dimes if I was playing there. Maybe your new president can ease up on the gambling legalities in your country so you can bet somewhere better.
I've only been using Bitcoins with them over the past year or so (and even when I was using a card, it was a prepaid). I made a mid 4-figures withdrawal last week and everything went fine. Sucks that people have been having issues, but I've been all good thusfar.
Did they require ID, etc. for cashing out Bitcoins?
Maybe its only recently that their process for verifying has been compromised then? Im not too sure.
I don't fully understand the process of using bitcoins so I don't know if they have a similar or different verifying process.
I'm sure, but it's one of those things where once you're verified, you're pretty much set. I think once in a while they'll ask for a scan of my license again (and back when I was using cards, they'd need copies of the cards), but it's nothing more than scanning whatever they need and sending an e-mail. The scary thing is that they still do need you to send info in e-mail to confirm withdrawal, so when I make a w/d, they need an e-mail with your bitcoin address and username/password for 5D. It's horrible security to be asking for a password in an e-mail, but I haven't run into issues thusfar.
It's pretty much the same process. You make the request online, they send an e-mail asking for confirmation (and at this point asking for scans of any new documents if they don't have them), you reply with the info, and they take the funds out of your 5D account, and they appear in your bitcoin wallet shortly thereafter. The slowest part is the waiting for 5D to e-mail you, as that can take a day or two (or 3). But once you've e-mailed them back any info they need, I've found it to only take a few hours tops before you have the funds.
Didn't read the whole thread so sorry if it's been explained but how do you get your money from the middle man? Are there any fees when getting your Money from the middle man? How do they make there money?
You just transfer it to your bank account. The fees can vary based upon bitcoin conversion rates and whatnot, but usually end up paying somewhere around 1% in fees (sometimes it can be as little as .5%, other times around 1.5-2%)
$150 at Denny's?? Yes I will take one of everything.
