    Probably just a promo since they are new to SBR.

    No idea though, I suck at daily fantasy stuff so I stay away.

    I have played there seems very legit, has some good features. But I have not won enough or played enough there to say I collected. Havent had any collection problems with the 5 or 6 sites I play on the most. But that is cheap for only 870 points getting $100..GL

    all run by people that used to work for full tilt and pokerstars if they gives you an idea. Just give it time before something bad happens.

    Guy 1, hey let me paypal you some cash, put in this lineup and get in the same contest as me and then if one of us wins we'll split the cash.

    yeh, nothing wrong with that is there.

    What's all these concerns about these sites being legit? They are all LEGAL and run out of the USA, there should be no worries with the more popular ones. Draft Day, DraftKings, Fan Duel and DraftStreet are certainly safe and all pay with PayPal.

    you are never 100% safe.

    betting geek was advertised here in the past. i dont know if they have paid in full or not but they were having problems.

    draftzone, with gary payton as their spokesperson was also having problems.

    i dont know if these companies slow paid or stiffed, but it can happen

    Do they accept Paypal or pay out with Paypal? Or both? I've always been curious on how reliable the payment side is for these sites. Lord knows I've had enough trouble with Bovada...

    Why did you quote my post?


    Draftday is almost as safe as you can get. Fanduel is #1. Draftday and draftkings are probably only slightly behind draftstreet.

    lol threads like this about full tilt and other poker sites before. the paypal thing should be against the law. All these sites are owned by a certain race that i won't mention.

    why do all the fantasy sites cap at 500$? u win a 500$ heads up or 3-way, there is no way to parlay it, except playing a huge 20+ man tourney or splitting the odds into multile match-ups

    there are not a few people on the sites willing to take a shot at a 1000$ 3 way, 3k payoff?... the only way to win money on those sites is to win a big tourney or parlay a streak of wins together

    no you probably could put 5 figures on the same lineup easily but would have to play many matchups

    I get the feeling that the fantasy sites are where the future of sports gambling in america is headed... Im sure most if not all these sites are safe... they are legal, but in a couple states... the more sites that pop up the better, more competition, brings the rake down

    they will be legal and more mainstream year after year, cuz they have the backing of the leauges, nfl, nba, mlb... it raises ratings, and they dont have to worry about corruption scandles, becuase a fantasy game w individual player stats from mulitple teams, cant really be rigged, thrown, or pointshaved, like a straight up bet on who wins the game.
