Draft kings

    Hey,

    Not sure if here is the right place or in fantasy football section.

    I've been playing draft kings for the confed cup. Doing quite well. Most tournaments I play are 3/4 dollar and usually 1500-2000k entries.

    It's not been difficult to min cash or so. Getting right to the top can be tricky. Does anyone have experience with this site recently?

    I want to give this a proper go for the season ahead. Interested to hear if anyone else is playing on this site?

    Didn't think it was available to Irish residents. I seen how a couple of lads approach this and the level of analysis they do is incredible which leads to this situation: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-09-10/you-aren-t-good-enough-to-win-money-playing-daily-fantasy-football

    Sports business journal tracked the two main fantasy sports organisations over 3 months - 1.3% of people made a profit in this period.

    Basically unless you take it very seriously and have a strong mathematical background combined with some programming skills you have a better chance of making money through regular sports betting because enough of the people you are in competition against are utilizing so many things to get an edge over you that its far from a fair fight.
