$$$ - Official Daily Fantasy Football Thread - $$$

[Dave P]

Seems to be alot of interest in this type of fantasy football so I figured it deserved its own thread.



What is this?
This is a way for fantasy fans to not have to deal with a draft, or injuries, or a lengthy season to win money. This way you make a new team every week, based on what you feel is a good setup.



How does it work?
How it works is simple. You buy into a league (or multiple leagues) every week. The type of league and the number of leagues is up to you. You then proceed to build your team and submit it into the contest. Teams are built via a salary system where you get a certain amount of "cash" to spend on players to build your team.



As you can see "better" players cost more so you need to be thrifty with your money and try to make good purchases to balance a team.

How much can I win?



Obviously it depends on how much you are wagering but there are alot of different types of leagues. One of the most popular is the 50/50 league where you join a contest and if you're in the top-half you double your money. These types of bets are much more stable and you have a pretty good chance of winning if you know what you're doing.

Then there are the massive pools where if you get lucky and draft smart you can win thousands of dollars off a small amount.


Here is what I managed to pull off the other week




Where do I play?

There are alot of websites out there that you can play on.


The only one I have experience with is www.Fanduel.com and it has worked well for me.


Is this Legal?

Yes, fantasy sports is considered a game of skill and received a specific exemption from the 2006 Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act (UIGEA 2006).














Purpose of this thread is to discuss Daily Fantasy Football, Team Building Strategies, and various things in regards to this style of fantasy football.



As I stated already I dont know all the websites out there but I use FanDuel.



Here is my referral link: https://www.fanduel.com/?invitedby=dave_p&cnl=da

I dont want it to look like I'm pimping out my referral so use whatever website you want or use the link above to go without a referral.



Let the conversation begin!.

[Dave P]

My two teams last week

[FruityPebbles]

In on this. Is there a tutorial for those who have never played fantasy football?

[Dave P]

I would just spend $1 on a 50/50 league and YOLO it.


Its easy to figure out but it helps to learn by doing.


The concerns of draft strategy are taken out of it which is alot of "normal" fantasy football. This is just basic points and strategy.

Dave what are the best leagues to enter to make money it? You can't make more than what you put in in 50/50 leagues right?

$1 entry will result in $1.8 in rev if you win



the site takes about 10% of pot

[BeachBrah22]

Just made my 1st entry baby! Only spent like 10 minutes on it we'll see if I get that last place trophy

[BeachBrah22]

If we get enough people in here, we should make a bb.com entry league. That would be pretty fun

What would be a good buy in? $2 or something?

[Impurityz]

Works for me... I'd even do a $1 if some miscers think $2 is too much. Just be cool to be involved with some miscers.

[KoCorl]

sweet sht, I'm in

looking at the setup looks like 2$ is the minimum which is perfectly fine with me, I don't know who can't afford that. We should also do winner takes all since we likely won't be able to get more than 10 people in the group

[BeachBrah22]

I'll make a thread in the sports section too to see if we can get anyone else

[Spitfire92]

That feel when a site is non-International (Uk Brah)

[BeachBrah22]

ya but idk if we can make $1 leagues, I went to create a league to see how it works and 2$ is the minimum option

[Dave P]

Winner take all or top 3?



Cap is 20 players on fanduel for a private league.

[NoS_oUtLaSt]

if its just a 2 dollar league might as well do winner take all.

[BeachBrah22]

If we can get more than 10 people lets do top 3, if not winner takes all

[Dave P]

Made a $2 league, top 3 win prizes


If we dont get enough people we can change it
