    That last 5 yard carry by Carlos Hyde just won some guy 2 Million Dollars.

    Was watching the scoring on DraftKings for the 2 million prize. Some guy was in the lead with 227.66 and when Hyde had that last carry, the second place guy who had him took the lead with 228.04

    I can't imagine sitting there with 2 million on the line hoping a guy doesn't get a carry. 2nd place was a million bucks, but still.

    I was watching it off and on for the final hour. The guy that was in the leads team was done and The other guy had Hyde left and he had that huge game and jumped up a couple dozen spots. The leader was winning by like .12 and after that last carry, he dropped to second place. I checked some other accounts that had Hyde and they had the same points for him.

    Lawmakers are already talking about making DFS gambling/ therefore banning it. It is gambling in the big tourney's. 50/50's not so much.

    Yeah. I won't be surprised when they make this illegal. It has everything to do with the outcome of the game.
    Why not make a site that has you pick 45 players on each team for each bet, where you get 12 points for touchdowns, 2 points for extra kicks, and 6 points for field goals?

    draftkings is clearly not skill based...unless you legalize all sports gambling everywhere it shouldnt exist..congrats to the winner of course...sad truth about draftkings is that the regulars that have taken over the site can dominate simply because they can afford to play every obscure combo lineup..thats why the 1% winning angle exists..you can play someone straight up or a 3 man joint for a g or 5 'gs or 10 gs ..but you might wanna find a easy game on a spread instead if you're looking for that action...

    NFL/MLB are already in bed with FanDuel/Draft Kings to the tune of millions of dollars in sponsorship money, doubt they are screaming to make it illegal now. They're the primary reason sports gambling isn't legal. Greedy bastards can't help themselves. Just a matter of time.

    nfl is the only thing stopping sports betting. Since they are advocating draftkings i doubt anything will happen. Plus the tax revenue is going to be nice for the government

    I can't wait for the inevitable Real Sports expose about some kid who racked up a 20k bill on his parents cre3dit c@rd and robbed a 7-11 to feed his Draft Kings addiction. I'm not sure about the jews, but TT is correct, this does look a lot like online poker before black friday.

    I played almost every weekend last season. I play the 3-5 buck ones, like 25k, and it always amazes me the top 10 winners lineups. The most obscure randomness. Like how the fuk can u predict, let's say, the Bears QB is gonna go off, then the 2nd string TE for Jax, then the 3rd string receiver for Tenn, and a short yardage goalline FB for Lions, and kicker for Zona and so on and so on. It just baffles me how that happens. Or the other scenario, people like me might be in the money for the prize pool, might just be 20 bucks, maybe even just my entry fee, and after sun night all my choices have played. and then on Mon night I drop 1000's of spots n out of the money. It's like, really?, everyone had most their players on Mon night.
