        So far I like it, not sure whether or not you can make any money as it seems like a small percentage of players make up a majority of the entries and the rake is a high for what these games are and the amount of luck involved but the interface is nice and the game is easy/fun.

          I agree its tough, I try to stay away from the multilpe entries contests or no more than 3 max per user. With guys like Condia on a few of the sites and others putting in 5-25 entries in 1 game is B.S.. With that being said if I was rakeing like the heavy hitters making 6 to 7 figs a year doing it I would probably do the same LOL!

                        Yeah, it seem ridiculous that you can have that many entries for one match up. There should be a limit on multiple entries for a group contest.

                              Kid is great. Wonder where he ends up when rookie deal is over. Not likely to stay in shitty Cleveland.

                                        Tough to say on the Bigs; But I think there are far better Guard Options at the price range of those two- I especially wouldn't touch Rubio, Your better off with grabbing say Isaiah Thomas or Korver at in those ranges.

                                            Well then Id go with Dwight/Hinrich, simply because I think That Rubio is a past-first PG on a team with very limited offensive options that is on limited minutes while still suffer soreness from ACL surgery -

                                                I actually like Korver over hinrich tonight and think I may rolll with him in a few lineups. HOrford and Pachulia out for Atlanta and Cha defense is not exactly good. Korver should be able to put up 25 fp's tonight.

                                                Also, draftkings rolling out a new $27 buy in $20 prize pool multi. First place $4k and while it is a big field it looks like there will be some decent overlay as well as only 373/825 signed up so far.

                                                Had a good night last night as min cashed one multi and cashed all my Double or Nothings to finish approx +100

                                                    So the H2H match ups are better than playing in the large groups?

                                                      The double or nothings are obviously the easiest to cash in as you only have to beat half the field. Id guess running the 100 man fields in the $11 range where you only have to beat half probably hold some value as their cheap enough to get a decent amount of players that dont know this shit like they know there own junk. I still think this game is too new currently and has not reached mass appeal yet so its a lot of "grinders". Which they get there advantage because they spend hours a day coming up with lineups and usually are going to get max value out of cheap guys that are getting lots of run.

                                                      I won a $44 larger group the other week for a nice pop so obviously I have a little bias.

                                                      Outrunning the rake in these games without some form of rakeback(like pokerstars supernova) will probably make it tough in the longrun.

                                                          Tmrw is a small card with brutal guys on most teams. Pierce may show up big for Boston.

                                                              Wasnt around computer or would have posted earlier. Got this lineup in a some double or nothings didnt enter any multis today. Debated between putting in Sullinger or Shumpert for last spot. Looks like I should have probably went Shumpert.

                                                                Reason why I hate days with small cards. Played a couple large field double or nothings and finished 51 (50 paid) in all of them. Was a few points behind the next 15 places ahead of me. Should have went with Shumpert but my second guessing myself killed me
