    Anybody Try Sportsgeek.com?

    I see they're a new advertiser at SBR. They are a Fantasy sports betting site where you pick individual players to compose a team. You can compete in a League, or in a heads-up contest as somebody signs up to take you on. There's a rake. For example, if it's a forty dollar heads-up contest you both pay $22 to enter. And it's all legal and based in the States and you can use c r d t c r d s to deposit because there's a specific exemption in the UIGEA for fantasy sports.

    I had a little trouble signing up, but I'll probably try it again one of these days. Am hoping that somebody has already played around with it and can give a report on what it's like.

    In my "email test" of CS at 4 different fantasy betting sites, only SportsGeek responded.

    They also gave me data for use in my new book on Fantasy Football... so thanks to them.

    Is your book out? Or when will it be coming out?

    I used it for basketball for a little bit. Will probably attack baseball on it once the NBA and NHL playoffs are over.

    Justin7...Thanks for the link, I'm looking forward to reading it.

    donjuan...Did you play in Leagues, or heads-up? What would you name as the best and worst aspects of the sites usability?

    tried NBA reg season there, seems like one of the better Fantasy Sports sites around...will def start playing there for Fantasy Football.

    they have good customer support but i can't comment on payouts or anything.

    Did everything they offered on basketball. The biggest problem was a lack of traffic IMO. Now if you are a rec player looking for a game you won't have any traffic problems. But if you want to get as much money in play as possible, you're going to have trouble. Think the most I was ever able to get in in a day was about $1k which didn't really make it worth the time invested.

    Thanks for the info. I'm interested in one-on-one volume. It looks really low.
