gets the cash (less a “rake”)

• $10 goes to the site as a 10% rake

Tips & Best Practices

Do Your Research
• QBs, RBs & WRs generally score the
most points (in that order)

• Know the matchup:
• Opposing defense? Playing at home or away?
• Any injuries?
Do Your Research

• Know the matchup:
• Opposing defense? Playing at home or away?
• Any injuries?
• Know the scoring:
• Points per reception (PPR) or standard?
• 6 points for passing TD or 4 points? Other diﬀerences?
Do Your Research

• Look for undervalued players:
• Seek value: highest points/salary ratio
• Try to save on QBs & WRs, splurge on RBs
Do Your Research

• Look for undervalued players:
• Seek value: highest points/salary ratio
• Try to save on QBs & WRs, splurge on RBs
• Try diﬀerent sites to ﬁnd hidden value in
player salaries -- not all are the same
Do Your Research

• “Deposit Bonus” = money sites will give
you for depositing on their site
• Look for a 100% bonus or more
• Not immediately usable, but it generally
becomes usable at around 4% of play
• e.g., after a $100 buyin, $4 of bonus cash is
released
Seek Out Promotions

• “Freerolls” = free entry into game with a
cash prize
• Great way to test a site for free
• Can be a way to build up a “bankroll” (a
balance on the site) without risking cash
Seek Out Promotions

• “Overlay” = extra cash in a prize pool
when a contest is guaranteed
• e.g., DoubleUp guarantees that a contest will
have a $100 prize, and the entry is $10
• If only 5 players enter, there’s only $50 in the
pot: extra $50 = “overlay”
• Now you have a 1/5 chance of winning $100
instead of 1/10 chance
Seek Out Promotions

Play the Right Games
• 50/50 games: The top half of the player
pool will win a cash prize of almost 2x
• e.g., 10 entries with a $5 buyin each, but the
top 5 players win $9 each
• 5 winners instead of just 1
• These are your “bread & butter” -- build up
winnings slow and steady

• Head to Heads: just you and one other
DFS player
• High chance of winning if the player is new
• Beware sharks on the bigger sites -- check
the leaderboards, avoid top players
• Try head to heads on smaller sites for a better
chance to win

• Guaranteed prize pools (GPPs):
• High chance of “overlay”
• Tough competition on the bigger sites
• Smaller sites more likely to have overlay +
light competition (ideal combo)

• Large tournaments (e.g., FanDuel’s
FFFC with $3 million in prizes)
• Multiple rounds to get in
• Toughest competition of top global players
• This is your “lottery ticket” -- low chance of
winning, but you get $1 million if you do!
