With the season 2 days away, I thought I'd get this thread going again.
Sign up to DraftKings here:
https://www.draftkings.com/r/donkshow and I get a referral bonus, so we both win.
There are some massive tournaments coming up on Wednesday and Thursday this week for NHL, not to mention the ginormous NFL tournaments they have going on. I've been crushing NFL (up $2k already) and I look to crush NHL starting Wednesday.
Also, be sure to check out a site I run with a few buddies:
http://www.dailypucktalk.com/. We have been running down some team previews in anticipation of the new season. We'll have daily articles with picks for daily fantasy hockey. We do podcasts as well as live shows throughout the year. My name is "donkshow" on there, I'm always in chat and I write a lot of articles there as well.
You can follow me on twitter as well for daily fantasy picks
@donkshowdfs as daily fantasy is a whole different animal than season long but man is it fun. It's where all my attention goes these days.
Good luck folks!

Nice work on NFL, looking forward to DFS since I play NHL and NBA and skip MLB and NFL.

It's somewhat concerning for sure...
I've been doing lots more betting on 365 lately and haven't touched DFS. Might still have to put a few bucks down though for this new season

Shep it's probably a spam filter thing, did you quote his link or include another? Could also just be keywords.

I wrote a response without quoting anything. Oh well. I'll take a screenshot and post it tomorrow. I have it saved somewhere at work.

Kings loss cost me 40$ on a 3$ parlay.
Hedged my bet @ +238 or so when they were up 1-0 though so made my $ back for the most part (had a couple other parlays)

I want a piece of this action. Can someone who consistently wins give me a basic rundown of how you like to tackle these?

Play 50/50s and h2hs if you want to consistently make money.
Sprinkle is some tournaments to try for the big money.
Tourneys you are looking for unique lineups that will have skaters owned by a small percentage of players. I like to stack a line and then sprinkle in guys who are going to see lots of PP time.

Different sites have different scoring so strategy is somewhat site dependent. I'm not sure if you can play though since Mik couldn't in Italy.

Put down $25 to profit $62 on Calgary -1.5 goals last night. That backfired rather quickly.
Put down $30 on the Islanders to win the cup at 18-1 odds. So a profit of $540 if they win it.
Had a DK lineup last night in a basic $2 double up but it got cancelled on me last minute. Had MaxPac, Panarim, Pavelski, Daniel so safe assumption I would have won a whopping $1.60 there.
