They will never put up roadblocks to keep one from gambling their money away!

Well, I have another credit card too. But this card I paid off expecting to cancel and then received cash back on it, might as well use it.

Alright, account set up, I'm in for Tuesday.

It's in your best interest to wish me luck because then I'll be more inclined to participate in the CP FanDuel, and therefore you have a chance to swindle some money off me

I'll root for you if you root for me!!!

[CroFlames]

Did you actually select 37 different lineups? Holy cow haha.

[calgarygeologist]

I set up my first paid entry line up for tonight. I now have a reason to watch the games.

[JonDuke]

Only 4 games, so that's 12 different game combinations.
I play a bunch of different line scenarios and hope to luck out.
There's people who play multiple hundreds of line combos....and they win. Big.
I'm not there yet, but if I win semi big, I might invest the time to try it out.

[CroFlames]

I set up a few lineups per night, then play them several times in different contests.

It's so hard not to bet with your heart though.

Agreed. I try to avoid betting on nights when the Flames play for that very reason.

[CroFlames]

Even for tonight though. LA is playing AZ. I obviously want AZ to win, but how can you not pick Quick and Carter and hope they do well to win some money?

Unfair world we live in I tell ya.

[jemjey]

I saw one guy win like 15 grand with like 7 of the top ten spots a couple days ago. I've just been entering once though.

Looks like we've got pretty different teams! Mine:

Ovechkin
Kucherov
Eberle
Johansson
Backstrom
Roy
Doughty
Carlson
Quick

Good luck guys!

[CroFlames]

I threw my hat into an NBA contest too despite not knowing basketball that well.

$1 play at a chance for $6k grand prize. 16,600th place gets you $2.50.

PS: I actually used to really enjoy playing basketball. I think I might get into it again. I just have grown apart from pro ball so much though. The NBA has turned morphed from a team sport to a group of individuals.

No matter how big Crosby gets, he's never bigger than the game. Yet you got LeBron who thinks he has been bigger than the game since High School. I don't like that.

LOL you are a fiend!

[slybomb]

Love this site! Never even heard of it before I seen it posted on CP last week. I have been playing 2-3 entries per night and it makes it more interesting to follow the games throughout the night.

[Dime_On_Flames]

What a bunch of degenerates we are

Same boat. Now I'm checking it almost as much as CP! The fiend is strong in this one.

[CroFlames]

Yikes. I hope I don't turn into a fiend.

Although it is funner than sitting at the blackjack table mindlessly watching cards get flipped over.

And $200 lasts a lot longer on Fan Duels than it does at a $25 table in Vegas.

[CroFlames]

I have heard of maybe 2 or 3 of these guys. Here's hoping they get daddy the $6,000 payout.

I hate you guys for introducing me to this... but I'm having fun, so I'll blame myself for now.

Threw my hat in the $2 round to see how the site works. Going to see if I am indeed capable of walking away and not monitoring my progress.

Yes, how the "site works". Don't look at me like that!

[jemjey]

Dunno about rondo. Terrible scorer and he has no one to pass to.
