Re: Barely Legal - The Daily Fantasy Thread
I'm not even going to look at my team tonight. Pointless.
BTW, did you see that NY judge has claimed daily fantasy sports gambling and now they are banned in the state.

Re: Barely Legal - The Daily Fantasy Thread
What was the breakdown of your winnings? 50/50s? or Tournaments? What entry fee?

I only do one tourney a night. A 1$ one just to see if I get lucky. I do that with two 50/50s and 2 3x multipliers. I'll enter 5$ on the 50 50s and 3$ on the multipliers.

Re: Barely Legal - The Daily Fantasy Thread
I've yet to win anything on NBA. Won 120 in NFL this past week thanks to Antonio and DeAngelo being in the same lineup.
What 50/50's do you enter....the ones with thousands of people or the ones with 30 to 100 people?

I enter in ones with 20 people. Sometimes ill do one with a lot of people as well. As long as you have a half decent lineup for that night 50/50s should be pretty easy money. Thats the safest bet.

Re: Barely Legal - The Daily Fantasy Thread
Won 30 last night. Just barely, 283 points. Thanks Ish Smith and random Philly SF!
My NFL plays this weekend....3 straight ~$100 dollar weeks...
Loves
1. Allen Robinson - a monster going against a bad secondary
2. AJ Green - always bounces back from subpar game, playing Houston's terrible secondary
3. Todd Gurley - expensive but will have a big workload at home, Rams need to win.
4. James Starks - Detroit is a mess
5. Derek Carr, Kirk Cousins, Blake Bortles - all great plays to save money on QB. I went with Cousins because hes rock bottom cheap in order to have....
6. DeAngelo Williams - whoever is the Pittsburgh RB will have a monster day and you have to roster them, but keep an eye on him because hes hurt. If he doesnt play, Jordan Todman (who was beasting for Carolina in preseason) will get all the carries at $3,000...you must roster him! I'll switch to Todman and upgrade the QB to a Drew Brees or Cam Newton if this is the case.
early roster: Kirk Cousins, James Starks, Todd Gurley, Alan Robinson, AJ Green, Rishard Matthews, Jordan Reed, DeAngelo Williams, Bucs D

Re: Barely Legal - The Daily Fantasy Thread
I need to get my **** together and pay more attention to last minute scratches. In a serious slump the past week. Might need to do some 50/50s to get back in the win column.

Re: Barely Legal - The Daily Fantasy Thread
Gonna start trying some 50/50s. I did a $1 one the other day and finished 3rd overall.
I'll just play LPs lineup every night.

Re: Barely Legal - The Daily Fantasy Thread
I just had a really, really big night. Won 85$ thanks to Rondo and Lavine, and for the week I am up 244$.
I started out with 25$.
Should I cash out or ride the heater? Im feeling it.

Cash out 100 and keep rolling with the rest?
Had Westbrook, Butler and Cousins tonight. Good enough to squeak into the money in the $1 tourney. Sad I took Rondo out at last minute to make way for Ibaka (who was still decent).
