2015-2016 DraftKings / Daily Fantasy Sports Thread

[Arian The Insider]

Dailypucktalk.com. Shep is one of the writers there and I think a co-founder if I remember correctly.

rotogrinders is another for NHL advice, I don't use sites for NHL, but I read that for NBA.

Hoping for a better night tonight than last nights lineup. Total dud last night lol!

[Shep]

RG is really bad for NHL content, IMO.

Daily Puck Talk is my website. I'm a writer and one of the co-founders as Arian mentioned. We put up at least one article every day there is a slate (minimum 2 games) and on Tues/Thurs/Sat we're going to be putting up 2 articles. There is also live chat going on all day long where a lot of knowledgeable people share ideas and picks. Sometimes you'll get NFL talk mixed in but for the most part it's NHL related. I write for 2 other websites, but my articles are behind a paywall there I believe. On one site for sure, but the other may be free.

If you're in to NFL, www.fantasydraft.com has a lot of overlay every week. Contests only get about 60% full (the big tourneys) so you typically have a much better chance to cash as you will likely have to beat just 1/3 of the field with the upside of it being a tournament.

Big tourney on DraftKings tonight. No reason for me to not use Price with all the value out there.

$6 wagered $9.25 won last night. no big deal 150% ROI.

[lightupdadarkness]

Thanks I'll check it out probably try my hand at a 50/50, multiplier, or something else

Start making that $60 or $600.

Here is my article for today: http://www.dailypucktalk.com/daily-fant ... ks-oct-27/

Sign up for DraftKings and their $20, $80k tournament with an $8k first prize here: https://www.draftkings.com/r/donkshow

i entered the $20 today, love my lineup which probably means it's going to be a donation.

[foofnik]

Don't have a DK lineup but I went heavy with $150 on a bunch of bets tonight, which means I'll either be really happy or miserable tomorrow:

DAL -1.5
MTL -1.5
PHI -1.5
ARZ straight win
EDM straight win
TB straight win
CLB straight win
ARZ straight win
ARZ/BOS over 5.5
STL/TB over 5.5
ARZ/CLB/DAL/TB parlay
FLA/DAL/MTL parlay
DAL/DET/PHI parlay

Biggest bets are MTL and EDM

[Arian The Insider]

You guys like Tarasenko-Lehtera or Bjugstad-Jagr or Zetterberg-Nyquist on draft kings tonight?

[Nick]

First two are going to be common place. Zetty-nyquvist don't play together, not the best stack.

oh, didn't know that about the detroit guys, thanks!

[Nick]

IMO the $ stack is Carolina top line. Steeg & Staal + Faulk.

[Shep]

Crushed NBA last night. Was a bad pick away from massive money. Damn you Andrew Wiggins.

[Nick]

I upped my $ wagered the last 3 days, went 0/4 in my lineups last night which makes the bank account look slaughtered!

[KapG]

Me too nick, me too.


Shep, I'm always like one or two picks away from decent payouts in the NBA. Like last night had an awesome night going but of course Cleveland smashes Memphis which limited the value lebron and Williams's brought to the table ffs.

My bankroll has been slaughtered the last few nights

[Shep]

NBA too easy.

[KapG]

Had a decent night in the nba yesterday too. Wagered 7$ on tournaments and won 17$.


Nearly had a really good night too....


Shep do you use rotogrinders for bball or just your own knowledge?
