I wasted a great line up in a stupid 50/50.

Coming 1st counts for nothing...

[Noles1992]

Damn bro sorry about that, I do like the 50/50 and 6,10,12 man to try to get some of my $ back that I put in the high volume entry tourneys that are a long shot to place. Keep at it and put the line up in both.

Man the guy that took first in the freeroll I played ended with 362 points. Damn that is alot of points. I will keep practicing on the freerolls until the first two weeks are up and get a feel on these players.

[k13]

362 is a lot.

There's no room for error like in football.

[jeepsguy004]

That is the one issue with daily fantasy basketball. You have one guy who does not perform up to par you are done. There are so many guys who will put up big fantasy numbers that you opponent or opponents will have taken you down already. We are just beginning though with the season plenty of time to get the handle on this. I did alright last season but I didn't get into it until maybe mid season.

[Noles1992]

WTH a 362 IS UNREAL!!!! K13 that 267 is a nice lineup to bad Rashad L. kept it from placing in $

[jeepsguy004]

played a 50/50 today in NBA. I got the urge. Let's see how it goes. Not a bad start with Melo getting me 37 points.

[Noles1992]

yeah thats nice jeeps, hold who is Josh Mcroberts ?I live hear and didnt know he was on team. pretty much the whole town couldnt tell you who is on team, except that Dwight is gone and Van Gundy

[jeepsguy004]

LOL...Noles McRoberts played at Duke was drafted back in 2007. My main purpose for taking him today was due to the injuries Orlando is dealing with right now at the forward position so he should be able to get some time on the court and should be able to put up a decent stat line for how cheap he is. Let's hope it works I might be a genius if it does... LOL J/K

[Noles1992]

Yeah Turk went down so I think he probably does, hope it works for ya!

[jeepsguy004]

Only finished with 250 last night but ended up 8th in a 50/50 with 50 people in it. My goal is to average between 270-300 each night I need to keep working to get there.

[Noles1992]

Keep at it,The good thing is you cashed!

[jeepsguy004]

The thing that hurt me from getting to my goal was Barea going down with a concusion in the 2nd quarter. He got me 11 points in about 7 minutes of play. He was on pace for a 30 plus fantasy point night. But you are right Noles I placed so it's all good. I will probably take another stab with a 50/50 tonight. Just going to look over a few things today and see who I like.

[Noles1992]

Yeah I like the 50/50. If I play lets say $50 in games, I try to get a couple of $11-20 50/50's to break even if I dont place in the high volume entries games. In fact I think I played in 1 hoops game all yesterday might have been a free roll. Cant remeber which site LOL! Was actually to busy getting my as_ HANDED TO ME ON FOOTBALL!

[k13]

I'll be playing tonight. Don't see too many values. Prices have stabilized a bit.

Basketball is too consistent which kind of makes it boring.

mo williams and collison still seem cheap after good games.

I find football more fun but I'll play everyday still since I'm such a degenerate.

[Noles1992]

i Hear ya LOL! I cant wait till college hoops games, those are even more intense as you usually dont have a lot of updated injury reports or who the coach has sitting beacause they missed class! Think Roto world kept up with it a bit?

[jeepsguy004]

Played another 50/50 tonight just to see how I do. Here is what i put in tonight.

[Noles1992]

Like it Jeeps, I do have a question about putting multiple players from same team on roster, has that worked for you, do you ever go more than 3. I have gone 2 unless of course there are only 2 games. I know some guys have stacked rosters with all but 1 player( Rules I think) from same team in hockey, and think I have seen it in hoops. What are your thoughts?

[danso]

I'm gonna get on this real soon. I like the activity in here

[koz-man]

New played hoops fantasy. Might have to look into...

[k13]

Have collison, mo williams, o.j. mayo, jr smith, lebron, m.gasol, forget who else. Stacked.

Looking to wake up tomorrow with disappointment. Have not checked my scores just nba box scores.

[Noles1992]

Yeah guys get in! all the suggestions and feed back we can give each other can only put $ in our pockets

[jeepsguy004]

Noles, I usually don't like stacking players from one team. I agree with you I try not to go past two. If I go to three is could be due to the match up Example last night I put three from Golden State thinking they would light up the Kings since usually everyone does but the two teams combine to score just 186 points, that's my luck.

[Noles1992]

Gotcha, might start a thread on that topic, as the football qualifier FFCC 500k winner on fanduel had 3 Bucs,2Bears on his roster and I have never seen that usually with football workout.

[jeepsguy004]

I know with baseball that use to be the norm with alot of daily fantasy players. Guys would stack a team with hitters who were facing a pitcher who was struggling. I know dailyjoust changed that during the season where you can't stack like that anymore. From what I remeber it is now to the point where you can only use three players from one team.

[k13]

I usually only use 2 players on the same team, maybe 3 if it's Kicker/Defense.

In hockey, supposedly everyone used the whole team since the scoring system favored it. I really wanted to try hockey, hopefully they change the scoring system.


Oh yeah, had dion watters on that team yesterday. Still finished in the 20's in the big leagues. Sucks.

Won every 50/50, h2h but that's boring.

[jeepsguy004]

Man did my team lay an egg last night. Grrrr I knew it was too early to mess around with this but I love my daily fantasy sports. Just have to try and get it back tonight.

[Noles1992]

yeah I am going to put a few together tonight myself. let get em Jeeps!. @ K13 good Job! 50/50 and h2h might be boring but they keep you cashing and thats what counts bro!

[k13]

Harden is over $8k now.

He'll still be jacking up a lot of shots so who knows what his real value is.
