    FanDuel and Draftkings

    I have never played at either site. I was just wondering if anyone here plays at either site regularly? And if so, what are the benefits to playing there vs a Sportsbook? I'm hoping someone can give me a Pros and Cons list of playing at a Daily Fantasy site vs playing at a Sportsbook.

    Also... does anyone on here play at ONLY daily fantasy sports sites such as Fanduel and Draftkings and not at any Sportsbooks... and if so... why?

    Thanks in advance.

    One more thing... which do you prefer... Fanduel or Draftkings?

    i prefer draftkings, but there really are no pros/cons, it's just a totally different game between daily fantasy and just betting games outright

    Rake too high....only way you will win long term is if you hit one of the big tournaments.

    just bet on games... fantasy is for herbs...imagine sitting in front of the ol LCD screen needing a score, and then yelling.. "BUT I DIDNT WANT THAT GUY TO SCORE." disgraceful.

    I play Draftkings....usually just one or two lineups a night.

    I never used fan duel. Last year I hit 30k on a 4 dollar entry draft kings in nba .....and they use wire to payout....it was in my bank account in 2 Days. Very quick payouts.

    Gluck

    I think this is pretty accurate. I posted earlier I hit 30k in one contest and I’ve hit 2k and 1500.00 along with several small 8 dollars and 20 dollar cashed over the last few years.

    If you hit a big one at low level entry.....that’s huge. I will never give that much back because I will only play the big payouts with low entry fee ones

    On the night you won the BIG NBA did your scrub players just go off?

    I think it’s much easier on nights where the cards are short 4-5 games total. On a 10 game slate I never seem to do well.

    Had a good night. I actually needed a good last minute from K Leonard in San Antonio. He hit a 3, had 2 rebounds and two steals in last 1;50 of game and it moved me from from 14th to 1st place....but I had additional players that had great nights obviously. Funny thing is...I hate spurs, but now, I will never bad mouth him or his team again. Lol

    I used to be a Fantasy nut.

    Lost interest & so will most if legalization happens & Fantasy players get introduced to the big leagues of sports betting in the states & offshore.

    used to play but became way too time consuming and i lost interest. i was plus money so i eventually pulled me money out. now i played free rolls here and there and use that money to play in contests. its fun but rake is high, its worth throwing some money in there and playing in the big gpp that show up. free rolls are less often

    I won 15k and then 40k on dk on b2b nights. One in hockey one is basketball.

    Was one less Chris Paul assist from winning 100k instead of 40.


    But hitting big is how you make the money. Very hard to just win a little each night.

    Tell ya what broke ass. I can show proof to a mod.....name your price.

    And since it’s known you beg posters for money because of your horrific credit....post up from you is a must.

    Now watch dlowilly crawl into a hole and make excuses.

    How bout 2dimes bet? Better start begging for money now.

    I play on both sites but prefer Draftkings. I used to prefer Fanduel but Draftkings offers more sports and their scoring system is more flexible than Fanduel. Both sites do handle payouts well through Paypal so there's no problems there. Its a different thing betting on sports versus playing Daily fantasy but I enjoy watching sports so I do both.

    My draft kings account since starting is plus 26,743 as of today. Now of course if you hit a big one like I did .....it is worth it. But if you don’t....you will most likely lose in the long run. It’s like anything else....if you spend the time and effort it can pay off....you see the same guys winning or near the top all the time. There is a certain skill to it... I don’t claim to possess that skill but I’ve seen people make a ton but it is a low percentage of “pros”

    I think it’s a lot like those huge poker tournaments in terms of winning. You need certain breaks to go your way.

    Let’s face it...losers like dlowilly has zero success in life....so he won’t have success in anything. Hi Dlow!! I know you’re reading. Lol

    I don't post on SBR much anymore but I'm just going take a wild guess... I'm guessing the 2 of you don't like each other much? Either that or you guys have gone to the burrito festival together before.
