I've deposited $25 on draft kings and now have $109 currently in account. There's money to be made for sure. I don't care how many computer programs pick your lineups 1 fumble or dropped pass changes all that. There may be a lot of cpu generated winning lineups, but there are a lot of winning lucky pull these players out my ass lineups too.

I don't know if anyone else noticed this, but I saw one of the networks include FANDUEL stats into a highlight for a player. It said something about a Fanduel player salary of $4100 or something like that.
So now its in the actual NFL broadcast.

A neighbor of mine won $5k in the baseball league the other day. $2 buy in and he took 1st. He was happy as shit when he was at $60, then $100, and the last 30min he was pacing around about to have a seizure.
All came down to the winning pitcher of the Pirates game. Evidently they pulled him out right as the 7th started so he still got the win. The moment it ended he did his bull dance all around the house.
I asked him if this brings him positive overall in FanDuel, he said.... good question. LOL

Business model of daily fantasy sports under federal probe: WSJ
Reuters) - The U.S. Justice Department and the Federal Bureau of Investigation are looking into the business model of daily fantasy sports operators and trying to determine whether they violate federal laws, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing people familiar with the matter.
Customers of DraftKings Inc have been approached by FBI agents from the Boston office, asking them about their experiences with the company, the WSJ said, citing a person familiar with the matter.
The probe is at a preliminary stage and no decision has been reached. The Justice Department is trying to ascertain if daily fantasy games are a form of gambling that are outside the purview of the exemption, the newspaper reported.
A spokeswoman for DraftKings told the WSJ that they have no knowledge of the specifics of any federal investigation but added that they strongly disagree with any notion that the company has engaged in any illegal activities.
The fantasy sports industry has faced a firestorm of criticism since news broke that an employee at DraftKings won $350,000 from a $25 entry in an American football contest on the rival FanDuel site using what reports said appeared to be inside information.
Representatives at the Justice Department, FBI, DraftKings, and FanDuel were not immediately available for comment outside regular U.S business hours.
Fantasy sports companies FanDuel Inc and DraftKings said last week that they had banned their employees from all daily fantasy games and also barred staff from rival companies from their sites.
Daily fantasy sports, which have developed in recent years, allow participants to draft teams in games played in just one day. It has allowed fans to bet with a frequency that some critics argue is akin to sports betting or gambling.
FanDuel and DraftKings are privately owned and both valued at more than $1 billion.Last edited by mstng86; 10-15-2015, 08:30 AM.
