    Which is better? Draft Kings or Fan Duel?
    I have never used either of them.

    I am thinking of cashing in SBR points to try one of them out.

    WHich one is better and why?

    Its really just a preferance thing...FanDuel is more "pure" and simpler, DraftKings has more lineup flexibility and different scoring (1.5 for assists, 1.25 for rebounds, bonuses for triple-doubles, double-doubles). If you are looking at cashing in SBR points I would start with DraftKings as they cost 1/2 price as FanDuel giftcards.

      I guess I will have to do FanDuel. I just set up a Draft King account and then realized afterwards that in order to cash in SBR points I had to click the link on the SBR store and then sign up to Draft King. Oooops. Oh well, I put some money in there and I will test/play with it today. Never done this before, is it easy to win? Or are there sharks playing?

              There are sharks on both definitely, but FanDuel might be a little more diluted since it is more popular. You don't have to sign up through the link at the SBR Store, do you? I'm pretty sure if you have an existing account, you can use that....if I'm not mistaken?

                My brother fukks around with Fan Duel.
                He said it's not bad at all.
                Payout to his payout wasn't long.

                He said he put in 150 and cashed out 2100.

                  FanDuel because you never have to worry about getting matched up.

                    Yeah, I think if you have an existing account then you are ok. I just set up a new account though, so I was supposed to do it through the SBR link.

                            Fanduel

                            he turned my $200 pro signup into around $1500 (we split 50/50 cause i had no part in it)

                            i played a few times just for fun, but never seen draft kings, but not sure it could be better....

                            fanduel is simple and easy to understand, i could play leagues no problem, and I had never played any fantasy of any kind in my life

                                These damn constant commercials got me interested. Had to google which is better and this thread/forum came up. Haha, go figure. Trying out FanDuel from the suggestions.

                                      Still have a paypal account registered in Texas, so I am sticking with FanDuel.
