Congrats to everyone who was lucky enough to have anyone in that Magic/Thunder game.

If it wasn't for Randle scoring a whooping 1.9 pts, I'd be having a pretty damn good night.

LP, what did you enter for that $10 game? was it a $1 league or something else?

I had Randle in one of my two draftkings lineups as well, what a terrible game for him! I cashed both of my lineups in the draftkings 27$ tournament, but only made ~50$ profit. Insane that the guy who won the whole thing for $30,000 just picked all players from the Orlando/OKC game + Marvin Williams. Seems like such a horrible strategy rewarded lol.

Was that a multi-entry tournament? Sounds like somebody who stacked a bunch of players in a handful of different games hoping to hit it big on a high scoring game. Smart strategy if you can afford to have several entries and patiently wait for the night you get it right. Big reward.

Got 2.50 in a 1 dollar league, even with Randall crapping his pants.

I really don't play for money (as evidenced by only entering one 1 dollar tournament per day), I just love picking lineups every day. And I like forcing myself into picking only 1 lineup a night. No hedging of bets.

and "Oh, Hi" to ohhi. Welcome to the board.

Yeah I usually do one as well, but tonight there were so many games I liked a lot of different players and couldn't make the combos I wanted fit in one lineup. I only like to play the big one every night (27$) when I have no plans and there's a decent slate of games, and keep league pass on in the background while I do other things, it's always entertaining.

Good to be on this board! I love your team this year so will be around and looking to contribute, really hope coach Clifford can figure out how to tighten up his rotations. Should be a highly entertaining season.

was a 10$ 50/50

Had Westbrook, Beal, Hood, Love, OIkafor, Schroder, Giannis, and Mudiay. Overall scored me 305 points. Should have joined a tourney. Probably would have cashed.

I scored 280 last night in Fanduel and finished in the money, so I'd think 305 would have put you well into the money.

Here is what I have so far for tonight:
Wall, Ish, McCollum, Hood, Aminu, Miles, Griffin, A Davis, WCS

I went with Lillard, Beal, Hood, Davis, Neto, Stein, Carmelo, Eric Gordon.

I have a lot invested in NFL this week so I will wait until I see how that goes before doing another NBA one. I got waxed last time.

For NFL I love Julio Jones and Justin Forsett this week. Doug Martin too.

I just threw together a lineup using some of your guys - Ryan, Forsett, Martin, Julio, A Brown, Mi Floyd, Olsen, Boswell, 49ers.

Thats actually a really solid lineup

tonight i have Steph, Beal, Jeff Green, Favors, Ezeli, McCollum, Paul George and Mahinmi on draftkings. Who do you guys have?

Post #54 » by **fatlever** » Sun Nov 1, 2015 1:28 am

Steph w/ 43 pts in 29 minutes. Good Lord. I had him in so many lineups earlier today, but eventually settled on the one with Wall. ARGH.

ohhi · Post #55 » by **ohhi** » Sun Nov 1, 2015 1:51 am

It's looking like Steph actually improved his shot in the offseason... If so that is frightening.

Won 30$ tonight on DK. 50/50 is easy cash if you know anything about basketball.

Liver_Pooty · Post #60 » by **Liver_Pooty** » Sun Nov 1, 2015 4:33 am

My goal is to have 300$ by Dec 1st for Christmas money. Won 50$ past 3 days. I like it.
