    Good luck with that. I've been playing for years and have been successful, but it takes a lot of time and hard work. And that doesn't guarantee you anything. It is a lot of fun, but a lot of work.

    Do a Football league every year with people in my area. Managed to pay off all my christmas shopping last year with the winnings. So the pot isnt to bad if your team shows up. It isnt big time cash, but im happy with it.

    I was a top 10 ranked DFS NBA player, top 50 NFL in 2015-2016 on Rotogrinders leaderboards.

    I also did some writing for one site that shuttered and some advisory work for them too.

    Rake killed the game and I completely stopped in 2017. I'd have to put $5,000 in play a day in order to make $100. The rake is too high, too much good information, optimizers etc.

    The variance is absurd. One late swap for NFL where I went from Robby Anderson to Jermaine Kearse was the difference between me winning $3,000 and $50,000.

    If you are playing $5 a night for fun in the big contests, go for it. If you are trying to make money, forget it. That ended in 2016 for 99% of players.

    No. They all used it as a way into sports betting. They care very little about fantasy now. Ridiculous they were able to make this legal years ago because it's a contest/sweepstakes. That's coming from someone who played essentially as a profession for a few years.

    yes

    daily contests with golf are basically like betting with a book...except you get to parlay 6 for 1 straight bet

    i assume tennis is similar
