I play these 3-4 times a week with friends for $5 a pop. 6 players, top 3 at least makes some money (3rd gets $5.50). It's great fun. I made $25 last me about 4 months. I've also found the 50/50 games to be the best chance at making some money. It's not a lot, but for $10 you can win $18 back as long as you finish in the top half.

First trial game is maxed out on entries. Thanks and good luck to all that entered.
I'll set one up tomorrow too, but we'll play for real.
$10. Can do 50/50 since that seems to be the popular choice so far. If anyone wants a winner takes all or top 3 pays out, lemme know and we can do that in the future too.
For tomorrow, I'll set it up for 15 people instead since the 10 went pretty fast today.

I still feel the same way to the person who introduced me to this. I enter quite a few each night. Usually come out on top by a little. Last night, I entered more times than I'll admit. The most of any single night, with different combinations, and got slaughtered in every one of them. My biggest single day loss so far. I'm still quite a bit ahead, but last night hurt, a lot.

It's fun for sure, and definitely addicting. You'll refresh the "live games" screen lots to see your rank/winnings move up and down.

I've been doing Draft Kings for a bit. Haven't really made any money. I find it's easier to make money on Bodog just picking straight up winners. But Draft Kings/Fan Duel is way more fun, admittedly.

I am going to end up in the same boat. Duke you are my new crack dealer - the first one is free, and after that.... you got to pay to play.

Good luck to all in the CP Fan Duel pool.

Thank you for setting it up JonDuke

This will be fun. I usually don't get to chirp the guys taking my money.

Shoot I missed the trial run.

But I am definitely in for tomorrow's real tourney. Finally, my sure-fire way of getting rich quick.

I agree with Bomber. Thursday would better with 10 games.

I play everyday already so I'll go with whatever the majority wants, which so far seems like Thursday.
