    What type of comp can i win the most money. I did a beginner the first time and made 10 bucks. I wanna make big bread though like 500 off of 15 or some ?

    Somebody point me in the right direction for this. Having a hard time navigating this ? in Draft Kings. Played in 5 joints my first time and didnt win shiiiit. Is it better to use multiple lineups in the diff contest or use just 1?

    I use at least 3 lineups in each contest that lets me have multiple entries.

    I'm seeing some say Draft Kings and others saying Fanduel, but no one saying why. That's what I want to know. Why do you prefer one over the other? Have you tried both to compare them?

    I'm signed up on both but I've only been using fanduel. I just like the design better. Felt like i had to do more than necessary on draftkings

    I heard FD has kickers while DK does not. That's a plus for DK IMO.

    Draftkings has flex position, no kicker and you can change your lineups for every game before that particular game starts.

    @Stew stop being slow lol

    Philip rivers might be the highest scoring Qb this week

    I tried hockey last year. I did ok but their games started around the same time as the nba and i couldn't get timely research on certain games. It got to the point where i was just guessing and that's not good for the pockets.

    I know some of the players and I know the good teams. The rest were educated guesses. Went Tampa heavy last night and it paid off.

    I got the email too. My first thought before I opened it up was these ? better not try to freeze my account. I won't be surprised if they give every member a free game Sunday morning.

    Got on fanduel this week with $10...doing OK after putting up $8 on a couple 50/50 leagues, a top 12 and a top 27 league.

    I think I've already learned one lesson; have a player or two in the late game..I'm sitting at #14 in the top 12 and #30 in the top 27 with no players left to play.

    I was turning $8 into $24 until the late game got going and all my players were done. I'll basically have my $8 back with the 50/50...

    I'm up 2,500 this week on fanduel. I was winning on occasion, $10, $25 and I just keep it in the account and play $2 or $5 games with the highest jackpot.

    I wonder how much they are going tax me because I never won this much before.

    They're going to tax you nothing. You're going to have to file that on your taxes later though. Anything over 600
