Ex-'Bachelor' contestant - $1 million DFS win was kit on the up and up

[SBR Drew]

Jade Roper-Tolbert, a past contestant on the reality TV series "The Bachelor," won a $1 million fantasy football contest over the weekend, but controversy ensued shortly after and an investigation has been launched.
Tolbert, who is in her first season regularly playing fantasy sports, entered the maximum 150 lineups into the DraftKings' "Millionaire Maker" contest on the weekend's four NFL wild-card games.

Heard they took the money away.

Heard they took the money away.

They did and it was pretty obvious that they used multiple accounts to get in more lineups based on what I've heard.

I'm almost certain there are even more people involved then just him and his wife. When these Millionaire maker contests first started players were all pooling their money together to not just have a couple hundred lineups but rather a couple thousand lineups entered into the contests. They were able to cover all of their bases and really hit on a bigger "core" while also reducing variance variance and capitalizing on the top heavy payouts as a group or a syndicate.

I know this because I was once a top 10 ranked DFS player on the Rotogrinder leaderboards about 5-6 years ago and knew many other guys doing that.

If his account had won, or another "reg", then this story would have never broke. They got greedy using her account as well.

Greed is almost always the downfall.

Some people get away with greed but most it catches up with them
