I'm on fire right now too and taking advantage of overlay on Draftpot's double ups. Won $130 last night and $255 tonight.

Awesome

Looks like NBA is starting to be as profitable as NHL for you. I'm still chasing my 1st tourny win.

So far, NBA has been pretty friendly. My 2nd week of NHL was still the best though so far. But, the season is early for both!

Decent day. Didn't hit any big winners but cashed on 3/4 NBA entries.

Came out with 31.50$ and wagered about 14 on 2$ and 5$ GPP

Big NHL tournies on DK ($20 -> $80,000 guaranteed) and on FD ($300 -> $100,000 guaranteed).

haha, yea it's hard to be patient with it with those tantilizing big payouts. Strategy is pretty much stacking and high scoring games?

For basketball I look for a few punts (cheap roster players) who can get me 5 points or so per 1000$ of salary. I then go and roster the best players I can after that.


For NHL though you are probably going to want to stack lines that you think are going to off. Shep and Matt are the experts though so perhaps they will let you know how they like to approach these things.

Looks to be a temporary game over for me in NY. Attorney General here is an asshole, it'll get appealed and they'll be back soon. Both companies have giant offices in Manhattan, AG is probably mad they took advantage of tax free periods in exchange for moving to NYC and he's not getting a piece of the cake.

I'll pull my $50 out of the account and stick to straight bets and parlays.

DK and FD said to keep playing. They will be fighting it hard.

I crushed NBA again last night. Big tournies for NHL tonight on DraftKings with the massive Triple Deke. NBA is an ugly slate, not sure if I'm going to play that or not.

got slaughtered on Tuesday. Went in big on a few places as a personal B-day present and it all went out the window, one of my first zero-win nights despite 14* bets across 4 lineups. Now i'm playing with chump change, will see if I can rebuild.

Won $300 tonight, $240 on Monday and lost $45 on Tuesday. Haven't had a job since Oct 24th and so far DFS is paying the bills nicely until I leave for basic on January 16th
