Default Daily Fantasy

Not sure how much this traffic this thread will get, but I figured I would start a thread about daily fantasy sports. I'm sure there are a few people on here that play it. Why don't we use this thread to tell us how we did, advice, etc. I get it's probably gonna be slow during just baseball season. I personally have been on quite a run where I've made money about 11 of the last 15 days. Nothing huge, but as long as I'm making money each day I'm happy.

Well today I like the Blue Jays to score some runs against Cashner, however it seems whenever I stack against Cashner it doesnt seem to pay off, but not gonna shy away.

Pitchers I like today are McCullers, Pineda, Ross and Biagini if he gets the pitch count.

Other Bats I like are Votto, Schebler, Cozart, Moustakas, Perez, Springer, Betts and Benintendi

Maybe I shouldn't have attacked Cashner.

I did one cash and one GPP. I had a mix of them, if I just played Martin over Avila and Longoria over Donaldson in my GPP i would've won $300, but I did have a few Jays going with mostly Texas and Rays bats. Early slate was awful for me, but late slate made up for it.

Well one lineup I stacked the Yankees(except Hicks of course) and was sitting in 2nd place for a while which was $200. Dropped down to 11th for now for $30. It was nice being near the top for a few minutes. Noticed Luongo was playing in the same one as well

Yes I had Scooter in one of my lineups. Unfortunately i got some zeros from a couple other players so still not doing that great. Been on a bit of a slump lately, just hoping I can continue playing with the money I entered a few weeks ago.

Well things cooled off for me and found it harder to win once the NBA sharks focused their attention to baseball. But NFL is starting soon and I'm excited. I don't normally use play draft but heard of a tournament they are doing and it seemed fun so I signed up for that. Also have a league with just friends that I won a few weeks last year on DK.

I'm guessing more people here play NFL daily?

I play NFL daily for fun. Play against some buddies now and then and maybe the odd milly maker if I feel I have the time to do enough research.

I mainly play NHL DFS. Make most of my money from that.

Although I won $10 from a $3 PGA game a couple weeks ago when I was bored! Haha.

I play just for fun. I signed up for a fantasy NFL package a couple years ago and got a $35 credit at draftkings, and have been playing with that initial stake since (have just under $500 in account).
I play PGA all season and made out OK there.
Always play NFL but results are a mixed bag. Think I'll stick to cash games mostly this year.
Hockey is way too random, but the only 'significant' win I ever had playing DFS (more than $500) came from NHL.

I think any team with a NYJ player is a loser

I'm running a couple Carolina stacks this week. But I'm not so sure. It's a tough week I think.

My Draftkings lineup for Sept 17 GPP and cash games. I only ever make 1 lineup.
Played $40 last week (Milly maker and 4 $5 double ups), got $75 back. Doing the same again today.

Good luck to all who are playing!

Ya pretty bad afternoon. Baldwin let me down big time. Quizz and Benjamin both couldn't get in the end zone on a couple plays right near the goal line that could've helped. It was cool being top 5 for a couple hours.
