Real Money Sites

[PatrickBateman]

Just joined fanduel and its pretty good, but are there any other sites people would reccomend?

[me-first]

I know many here play at Draft Street and Daily Joust, both seem solid..

[RealMadrid]

Except fanduel, I like Daily Joust too.

[The Giant]

Do all these sites accept PayPal?

[ProPicker713]

Draft kings is great and yes they all accept paypal.

[biddy_24]

I like Daily Joust and Draft Street

[PatrickBateman]

Also, these sites are all 100% legal or are we going to wake up one day and find out they are gone?

[ttwarrior1]

patrick, ill tell you the truth, but not on here

dailyjoust
draftday
draftkings
fanduel
draftstreet

[dudekid]

arent you a little too busy mercilessly slaughtering call girls to be playing online fantasy sites?

the NFL has alot of power... I dont see them going anywhere... and they will probably be the only form of legal gambling online for some time to come... becuase they have the backing of the NFL... Im guessing becuase fantasy games (which are a collection of individual stats) cant really be manipulated like game totals and outcomes can be, by a paid off ref. or player

I like the week by week sites, rather than the draft leauges... week by week takes more skill... all players and match ups are in play and one person is not stuck to a small pool of players over and over

[BigDeem5]

I mean... How big of a vig do these sites take?

[ProPicker713]

Bigdeem if you mean rake most of them take out a good ammount .For example if you enter a $5 h2h on fanduel the winner will receive $9 and that means 10% rake.For example if you enter a $5.35 on draftking the winner will receive $10 so its like a 6% rake.As for the other sites i'm not to sure but I hope I answered your question.

[YouMama]

I mean... How big of a vig do these sites take?

I come up with ... h2h on fanduel is equivalant to making a single bet at -120 odds at a sports book ... poker analagy, 9 to 10% rake

... but also, no wire fees or anything like that ... and u do get a cetian amount of Site Credit Points back for each entry

... the real money seems to be in the referral program, which seems pretty decent... a % of the rake from entries of people u refer to the site

Fantasy sites arent gambling. They are "games of skill", which makes them completely legal, according to the good ole US Government.

[greenhippo]

Fanduel will be your best bet, all are second rate from what I can tell.

[ProPicker713]

Fanduel has more rake but less confusing and I would rather play there.

[Cross]

Isn't gambling also a game of skill? What a joke us government.

Yeah, what?

[Wulfman14]

is this the real bateman of long ago that was banned ? if so i hope you are more of an asset to the site . if not the same ignore post.

[will2survive]

fan duel has the largest prizes but not so easy to win a tourney

[Mitchell88]

yea that makes no sense picking a game and picking fantasy sports are pretty close

[Otters27]

how long before the govt cracks down on these sites.

[5mike5]

government doesnt care at all, they fill out a tax form if u net over $600 so gov. gets a slice too

[shaunovery]

I play at cdmsports.com

[PatrickBateman]

Wulfman,

I am not. You can check all my back posts if you want. I have had people ask me that before, but I have never been banned. His name was batemanpatrick. Im Patrickbateman, easy mistake to make but I assure you we are not related.

As far as the rake or vig or whatever we want to call it goes...how can one overcome it? Even if you did win 60% of the time which is enough to scratch out some winnings, you still wouldn't win all that much.

[xraygord]

I have only been using Daily Joust, I will have to check out the others.

[peacebyinches]

hard to say really, sounds like some good ones out there

[soccerzyko]

Ive done draft street before. They have free contests too, seems legit

[sparky12]

hi im newbie here can i ask whats the fanduel? and what do you mean real money site?

[jeepsguy004]

If you really want to make some good money you need to play big money to win big money games. Playing a head to head with someone for 100 or more is the way go. You need the bankroll to do it. Look at some of the guys who are big time on fanduel and you will see they play the head to heads for a few hundred bucks. The one thing I do notice about them is they will play the satellite tournaments for the DFBBC Trying to win one of those tournaments they run that has 2500 people playing in it is kind of like trying to win the lottery. You need luck in those no matter how much you study. I study my ass off on this stuff and I still have plenty of off nights since I do not have the luck like some people have.

[runner5k]

For me Fanduel is the way to go. However with the 10% or so that they take your not going to make any money really playing for small amounts.

thanks jeeps thats the info that i was looking for

[LT Profits]

Do all these sites accept PayPal?

Don't know about "all" but DraftStreet certainly does. There is no reason why all can't accept PayPay since they are not "gambling" sites.

[PatrickBateman]

jeepsguy,

Thanks for weighing in on the subject. I totally get what you are saying and it makes sense. If you are halfway decent at making good lineups I believe a 60% win percentage is possible. That being said playing $10 or $25 games, you can't make much hitting even at a high rate like that. You need to play the higher limits.

However, I have noticed that some of the bigger players on there literally have 25-50 entries. There is one guy on fanduel that is in tons of games ranging from the lowest price to the highest. So whats the strategy there for a person? Why play $10 h2hs when you are also playing $535 h2hs? Its not like their point system for play really pays off all that great. At first I thought maybe they were just trying to accrue points, but they aren't worth all that much. Any theories on this?
