So I've been gambling on this app since the season started with little to no reward , but it's still fun and has the potential of being very rewarding. I have a question about the one game bets though. So tonight the Titans and Jags are playing and there are many games that you can play and gamble for different amounts. I picked a dollar game and set my lineup, but I'm wondering if I'm doing something wrong. You have the option to either pick the players playing tonight or players from tonight's game and Sunday's. I chose the latter. I always have because that seems like the smartest move especially when you have plenty of salary cap room left because the players from tonight's game aren't top performers and they're are guys playing Sunday that are and will score more points. So which is the way to go?because it seems like I'm the odd man out in doing this...

I play very small amounts on Fan Duel. I go up and down. But have the chance to strike it rich. I'm down $25.00 for the season. My son is making over $600.00 a week the last three weeks. It's there if you get lucky and your are semi good at it.
edit. Oh and if you try.

I'm saying that statistically, you have worse than a 1 in 6 chance of winning. 85% of draftkings/fanduel players lose money, and 95% of winnings go 1.7% of the top players. And those players are, for the most part, professional gamblers. Daily Fantasy Sports has an incredibly low payout. Just give the money to a broker and play the stock market. It can be a 100% payout if you tell your broker not to gamble, and it actually has higher upside than DFS.

Rename each stock after a player and "play" fantasy then lol. Build a "team" (portfolio).
