Curious bout this as well. What is the skill vs luck / variance like ?

Also in before people actually really quitting playing poker professionally and mindlessly move to DFS =)

lmao DFS is in its prime right now, much like pre BF online poker

its the "take advantage of this while there are whales" part of life, except this will last way way longer than online pre BF poker

That old saying, "All press is good press" is a bunch of BS. The ramping of their ads was a gigantic mistake.

Yeah and go figure it's Friday too, is it the DFS version...

This is only one company though and while its not good the real dagger would be PayPal shutting everyone down. That would be a major problem, don't know for sure but with the massive amounts of money flowing through these channels another player will likely step right up of course.

Now if PayPal bails, or if this somehow has to do with them then it is RIP (fingers crossed not)

Any tips to get into DFS? I'm an avid NBA watcher so I'd probably focus on that if possible but I don't know if it will be since I'm from the UK. I'd like to get ahead of the pack here though if I have the chance.

I guess we have no way to verify if it is real or not.
Point is clear enough though.
And if you think there aren't any actual stories like this,you might be surprised...

Same thing happens for people who leverage their house+savings to start businesses that later fail or invest in the stock market that later moves against them. Are those activities gambling as well?
