    Do any of them let you bet vs. opponent(s) on best ATS records, something like the Hilton NFL Handicapping contest, but maybe with different field sizes(small or huge) and different buy ins? I would love to do some NCAAF with weeks #2-6 coming up, just to see how my pitiful NCAAF skills measure up to others.

    More than doubled my deposit my first night....fun, good practice, made the mistake of drafting Ryan Zimmerman, who was a late scratch. Still managed to get lucky and win.....I'll be more careful with the starting lineups in the future.

    Agreed, I like playing at Aces, Feud and FantasyDraft cause there are better spots. Still like Fanduel just because the scoring system is simple and easy to follow.

    Is there a way to beat these consistently, even at low stakes, without investing a lot of time? I know with Nascar there are guys who are documented destroyers of the fantasy leagues every year and they will literally give you their predicted order of finish on each race. This makes being a winning nascar handicapper a 1 hour a week job to basically match their finishing order up with discrepancies in h2h bets being offered when the books open the action. Can something similar be done with these sites?

    Would your opinion change if Draft Kings decided to buy up some SBR advertising space? I should look into these sites as it seems like there would be a way to tail the crushers picks and win in smaller buy ins? With Nascar the guys picks are transparent to anyone and they were beating h2h's at over 60% for the first 2 years I used them, its cooled off a lot since then, but still consistent winners and an obvious edge every time I translate their Nascar fantasy picks into h2h bets.

    Naw, I am too lazy, probably just take a few bong rips and bet some NCAAF instead. But there are profitable ways to use the free work of others as I have done in Nascar. Although the guys I use started charging small a couple years ago and they aren't beating the openers as badly as they once did, but dat free moneyz is goot.

    They pissed me off on Sunday. I was at a Picnic and my Niece and her BF were talking about joining. So i went on my laptop and signed her up with all her info. Being my niece i wanted to be nice so i use my CC and deposit $50 . I tell them if they hit just split the cash with me.
    So then she gets an e-mail saying her account is blocked and they will unblock it if she sends them copies of the CC and her licence. I had her call and cancel it what does it matter if someone else pays . I never joined them before so there was no duplicate accounts. Pissed me off.

    I do the big tournies daily to try and hit a huge score for a cheap price.....Basically treat them like longshot parlays and don't invest too much time and research

    Have done alright but haven't hit it big....yet
