    Large database of customers but not sure they needed to pay for that because the new players/bettors will be rolling in.

    Why are some gamblers so against daily fantasy?

    Easy to move money and some big prize pools to be won

    Last month won 5 grand off of a $8 tournament in NBA on draftkings....not winning that sports betting off of such a little amount unless I hit some ridiculous parlay
