[jewseejay]

I took david johnson. Melvin gordon. Kendall wright. On alottt of my lineups.

 

[Ruck13]

I gotta do better this week...

 

[d e beatup]

got a feeling wilson is gonna run all over chicago.

Gotcha. I'm fighting the itch to make a Jimmy Clausen led lineup. I'm very contrarian when it comes to GPP but I just can't do it. He's been so bad his entire career. On the other hand though, my Bortles/Robinson combo worked very nice so I dunno. I just like to be different I guess

 

[xxpizzo]

only winded up winning 5 ($25 on a $20 entry) in the MM last week was $50 nothing big yet

gonna give it another go this week

 

[proshares]

Going Clausen/Bennett would be super contrarian but with decent upside. Seattle struggles vs. TE's and if/when the Bears get in to the red zone, he'd be their top target.

Came in 16th out of 7000 in a tourney on Fanduel this week .......

But it was a freeroll :x. Only won $10.

thank you dolphins

What kind of tourneys you doing where 144 cashes you out? I hit 150 pretty often and I'm always borderline cashout

 

[johnnyredstorm]

$27 and $100 games cashes you out at that level.

I'll only play games with around 8,000 people or less, preferably a lot less. Better payouts.

Damn. Ive been playing the 3$ games with a ton of people and putting up solid lineups. Might go for it this week.

@awwsome said it best, those $3 tourney's are like the lottery.

lets give this a try

 

[johnnyredstorm]

Yep paying up has gotten me better payouts.

 

[MON5T3R]

Threw out only 2 lineups this past week. One in the $20 millionaire maker and another in the free customer appreciation game. Of course the one in the millionaire maker absolutely bombs due to the saints and the other puts up 184.65 and wins me a $3 ticket. If I would have switched the lineups I would have won $80 after subtracting the entry fee

 

[d e beatup]

What happened to the #NTtakeover for one of the tourneys? I'm down for about $25, maybe $50 if enough people join

When I get my bonus in I'm legit considering either a $500 or $1K double up. Hate to lose the dough but 50% odds is worth it, even against the PROs

Great lineup.

 

[hsalem]

@Steebie J  How you been doing in baseball lately?

 

[hsalem]

 
those dumb low tourneys smh

8-10 tourney better odds? I never even consedered paying up for these tourneys until i saw you guys winning a ton with a lot fewer points lol

 

[rook]

Yeah the higher the entry fee in double up/tourneys, the lower the score to cash out.

One thing that causes people to not do well when they play those tourneys with high entry fees is that they play it too safe because of the money they're risking.

@Steebie J

Not so great in tournaments but been cashing in on cash games

 

[a-friend]

8-10 tourney better odds?

Those are clutch for me.

Did a $100 entry on a 11 person yesterday.

Entered the same lineup twice and finished 2nd and 2nd. Only 3 payouts, $500, $300, $200. 

Top score was 153 and mine was like 148. The next closest was 116. 

Everyday I eat, or try to eat there first.

$3 are fine as long as you are not trying to win $20k with 100k entrants. Do a $3 with 1500 entrants where top prize is like $1000.

Yea, $1k isn't as enticing as $20k, but at least it's attainable G.

If you do $3 do a contest like this......https://www.draftkings.com/contest/draftteam/9935285

 

[a-friend]

Here are the 5 pitchers for today....in this order.

Arrieta $14.5

McCullers $9.4

Ross $10.6

Lackey $10.3

Salazar $11.1

Tip of the day: when I have 2 SP's that are close to or more than $25k, I never spend more than $25oo on C/2/SS (unless I can afford it). Forget those positions first and fill the      other position players

Good luck 

 

[proshares]

I don't think you can pay that much for McCullers or Salazar today.

 

[a-friend]

I can see that with Arieta but not McCullers or Salazar.

I'm not paying that for Arieta when I can get a 20+spot from McCullers for $5k less. 

McCullers will be in every lineup though.
