    But either way, it depends on varies a lot. If you check every bet you're gonna make against both, you're gonna split your bets a lot and see a lot of difference in some situations. I'm just talking about stacked higher + odds SGP's, from what I've seen it's better at Fanduel more often than not. But I imagine it depends on the type of combo.
    Thanks. I'll check FD out again. I wonder if they ever give reload bonuses?

    One last thing. I also find myself playing 5 inning team totals all the time too and DK is the only one I've seen that has that. MGM does give alt lines on team totals for full game which I play occasionally too, but these DK totals are nice! Hit Boston Over 2.5 last night. Hit the Dbacks Under 2.5 thru 5 big last week vs Ashcraft/Reds. They were shutout on 2-3 hits thru 5. Occasionally they'll have a shitty starter at 1.5 which usually means an Over winner as well.

      I do see that FD has runs scored in their Same game parlays. That I do like. DK only has hits, hrs, rbis, steals, total bases. Rbis pay much better, but they're obv also harder to hit.

          DraftKings is so overboard with their SGPs, they must be making a mint overall. Sure, have an odds boost on a minimum three-leg SGP, Average Joe, it ain't gonna help anyway. No section for their "regular" odds boosts like there used to be, they throw up an occasional individual boost.. their lines aren't great.

          Their VARIETY of bets and just how many leagues you can bet, is. Lots. And the payouts (I just did one the other day, a good amount of money) came within a day. They've always been excellent with the payouts.

              It’s not so much the amount t you need moreso the odds minimum has to be +500 some of the time so you have to take long shots too on the promotions

                Fanduel > Draftkings so far in Ontario. Fanduel promos are terrific, ie "Raptors to score 1+ points +100 $50 max" etc.
                NY Rangers 1+ shots on goal -110 $50 max etc.

                Free money and no roll. I've bet these and withdrawn immediately to test.

                  If you want to get an idea of just how much the SGP stuff varies, I just found a 3 HR combo that is 40-1 on DK and the exact same thing is 250-1 on Fanduel. I shit you not. Not sure if that says that DK is an extreme ripoff or Fanduel is an extreme gift. Maybe both. But the thing with FD is once you play that combo, check back a few minutes later and you can often see a drastic change even without an underlying move. Truly bizarre.

                    You would think so, but somehow not. Fanduel is eating them for breakfast.

                        I think FTH is a fucktard but he is absolutely correct on SGPs, FD is way better

                          Glad to make a new fan, but I never said FD was better. What I said was DK has been giving me 20-100% boosts and I played FD for 2 years and they never gave me shit. DK just gave me ten 25% boosts up to $100 for the Memorial Day weekend. I've been beating them pretty good with mlb and I like them. Now that they stopped the boosts and since I'm also playing fantasy a little then I should check FD out again.

                            Well for one I'm not an ordinary Joe. I know baseball although I have my good/bad seasons like everyone else. Here's how I do it. I didn't have time to cap a SGP on Philly/Wash early game but I did hit Castellanos rbi +100 since Adon sucks and Philly has 3 good obp guys in front of him in the lineup. Then you take Phil ML and something easy like Adon give up 4+ hits and you'll get atleast +180 I would think? I don't get too greedy. Just want to cash

                            Or I've started looking at 3rd inning runs versus a shitty pitcher because the odds aren't bad and good chance a scrub like Adon gets shelled when they see him the 2nd time

                              Parlays are free money for books plus odds are not real good

                              Every book begs you to bet parlays

                                FanDuel always throws me 100% up to $40 and 50% up to $75 nothing real big. Plus in the last few months made it a free play instead of cash. DK is always offering 5, 10, 15% in reload bonuses for free casino credits to me for “VIP” reload

                                      Sort of, but not necessarily.

                                      Draftkings limits the fukk outta me, but then sends me "free swag".

                                      Caesars has been good to me despite my pounding them.

                                        I know where Gold is coming from too.
                                        I get his point.

                                        And any day now I'm waiting on DK to limit me.
                                        I'm small potatoes, 40-80-120 type player, but I cleared nearly 3k last month there, I know they noticed that.
                                        And I'm not a paranoid type.

                                          40-80-120 you're fine. 3k is not noticeable. Depends on the type of wager, but even I can mostly bet over 120 there. That doesn't register.

                                                I really can't say, because before last last year they allowed anything. Then they tightened ship. I took them for a large number in 20-21, but I doubt that's doable anymore before the hammer comes down.
