You should thank reggie bush for getting injured, giving hyde all the usage.
Fuck, I love nfl dfs…. made 1k by doing nothing but picking a few players :)
Congrats to cjs5555 on his big win. Not many people more deserving then him.
+1, a true grinder.. can we all agree nfl >> mlb?
Special shoutout to FanFooBaa… dude won like 7.5k in MM also..
God bless you man
For the most part, you just got unlucky. If it wasn’t for the Thursday contests, I wouldn’t have made much this week.
DK Hail Mary – I led going into Monday night, 2 guys ended up squeaking by me (thanks to Julio and Hyde), I ended up in 3rd by less than 2 points. Still my best DFS haul ever, so I’ll take it :)

Nice job. Congrats
Was glad to wake up see AP didn’t do anything. All my winnings held so I got about a 50% return on DK and finished on the plus side for fd. Not great for fd but it’s not losing. Onto week 2.

Nice hit! Congrats!
Staying pat worked out for me. Ended up with $1500 in the Milly and a little over $100 in smaller tournaments. Learned a lot too. This forum was a huge help over the weekend. Thanks for all the smart folks posting on here.
Thanks – I missed out on a whole lot more by not putting that LU into the other GPPs – I almost always put all my LU’s into at least 3-4 GPPs at different price levels but for some reason this particular LU and about 3 others (out of 20+) I only put into the Hail Mary. It wasn’t frugality as I was chasing overlay and adding funds to other sites all morning Sunday. Just a brain fart I guess.
Lesson learned – make sure you put all your LU’s into all the GPP’s you are playing!
My 50$ double up hit for 190.5 points. I wish I had played it in all my games. would have won more than the $100.00
First time ever playing DFS. Entered three 50/50 contests and the $750K Sun NFL Kickoff. Won in 3/4 contests totaling $47! (Yes I realize that’s a small number but still excited…)
First timer’s luck but now I’m hooked!
Big thanks to RotoGrinders for all the resources and tools available!
Had a solid weekend but it’s frustrating finishing in the top 1/10th of 1% in the $1 Million Rush and only winning $200. Would love to see flatter payouts. In fairness though, I probably wouldn’t be complaing if I had finished in the top 5.
My worst weekend ever, by far. 70 lineups all out of the money. Humbling experience.
Nowhere to go but up from here.
Lost all 15+ contest on FanDuel.
100% ROI on DK but only 10% on FD thanks to my horrible FD tournament performance. Cash game lineup dominated and then every tournament lineup I made was garbage. Too many tight ends going off that I had low exposure to.
RG Overall Ranking
Glad you did get those 40+ pts from Murray+Matthews.
Awesome 1st week of the NFL. No way I thought I would finish in spot #182 in the FanDuel Milly Maker. I was up to #50th before Phily decided to play ball
Hill/Ivory combo saved me on Fanduel. Surprised at how low owned they were; I figured they’d be close to 20%. Overall positive week on the toughest one of the year!
