Integrity28 Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Literally never, ever Google "best FanDuel lineups" before picking your teams. Ever. lol, no... don't do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Integrity28 Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 So... thanks @Maxman for setting this up, and congrats to all our winners! I don't know who some of those names are, but I think @plustin cashed in big too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hofstra Jets Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 That was awesome. Basically free money. Will be playing every week despite my poor poor performance this week. Thanks Max. Please post the link when this weeks go up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BroadwayJoe12 Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 First time doing this and I'm hooked. 5th place for one week netted me $140? That's nuts. Will be doing it every week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just so you know, it's possible that FanDuel right-sizes the contest they set up for us. So, this past week may have been the only that'll pay out in that format, but last year even after they right-sized the contests they were still too good to pass up on. We'll see what they do... a few more weeks like this one would be awesome. I almost exclusively play the JN contests. There are some pretty key strategies to avoid having your money taken by the professionals in the other contests. I haven't had time the last 2 years to figure that all out... hopefully this year I can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I certainly don't expect to win each week, but just simply putting $10 on a league each week is plenty of fun for me. When you're in med school and your net worth is negative, winning anything gives you a ton of excitement lol. Also, what does right-size mean? Also, professionals? God damned commie-bastards.

God damned commie-bastards. there are thousands of dudes who make that site their sole source of income. I would never consider playing outside of the jn league unless i wanted to dedicate at least 20 hours of prep. Even then youre odds of winning anything significant are super slim.

Right-size = when FanDuel realizes their contest is designed to pay out 200 people and only 150 are entering, they may re-size the contest to be more appropriate to the sign-up count... or they may not. Remains to be seen.

T0mShane Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Just saw the email showing what the perfect (Max value) lineup was this week. Of them, Mariota, Hyde, Nuke Hopkins, Eifert, and Keenan Allen were each owned in less that 5% of teams selected. Julio Jones was the only player to deliver on his initial cost. Game is maddening.

Jetlife33 Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 I'm new to fanduel so when I signed up I used a promo code and got a bonus amount. It says the amount is pending in my account. Any idea when the pending bonus cash actually becomes real cash? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prime21 Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 From what I understand it is given to you gradually as you spend your money. This is to avoid people signing up and then just withdrawing free money and also doing it on multiple accounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
