Do you guys enter your 50/50 lineups in tournies or always use a more upside lineup? I see one of my two lineups in 50/50 s would have been worth $500 (166) in the Sunday Bomb at FD

It's absolutely possible that I'm the all time worst at NFL, might be time to hang it up til MLB season. I've def gone on 2 week stretches where I got murdered at MLB this season so it could be variance but ya, faded all the wrong guys again.

I find it depends, most weeks I feel like my lineup is maximized outright, and enter the same for all.

But if I'm uncertain with multiple players that I like, I will spend the extra salary to acquire someone I believe has a low probability of busting and combine him with a high upside scrub for the bigger leagues.

Most of the time my 50/50 team(s) are not the same as my big tourney teams. I have done it though, and with success at times. The 50 point Megatron week I absolutely loved my team going in and played it in every single game. Obv I didn't know CJ was going to go for 50 points, but the entire team felt like a lock and I felt no need to break it up to reduce variance, which I would typically do.

Differences between tourneys and cash game lineups is overrated imo. Especially in NBA. Less so for MLB.

I'm at 25% strictly for NFL, not including bonuses and rakeback. So closer to 30%.

I'm also curious, is this good?

There is heaps of overlay all the time in the qualifiers over at Fan Throwdown. They have an end of year $500k gtd $1000+60 FFB tournament. They have decent sats through NFL but during the week there are NBA sats to it. Their $200/6 man often only gets 2-3 and the $109/11 man gets 4-6 depending on the night. Won 2 of the $109's tonight with 4 entries total in both.

I really need to start spreading my money around on a few sites. Also on another topic. How do you guys keep track of ROIs. On FD you can just download your history and plug it into excel. Is there a way to do that on DK?

Quite simply the ~90% of customers who are casual love it and the 10% who play for profit don't. Thanksgiving is about new customers, friends and family. That's why most sites are offering Thanksgiving only to give those people a 1 day FF experience.
