Didn't win much as I start the season only playing $5-10 games until I build up the bankroll. Up $350 so far. Best finish was 150th out of 60,000 for 200 bucks. Could have hit it much bigger but Carlos Hyde and Justin Forsett the bed.
My brain gets in the way - always good value out there. I think for me is just picking a lineup consistently with small adjustments. Sure, in one week, having 3 top flight WR may bust you (which sucks bc you spent your money there), but over the course of a season? If you can fit really good players into your lineup over the long haul it should work out.
But it's such a variable thing with it being weekly.

I really just play $1-$5 tournaments. Have probably lost money, but not much. I know it's not the way to really try and win money long-term, but it's more fun.
I like my lineups this week (says every person ever).
Millionaire makers are like $25 minimum I think
You're a nice guy. It's a terrible lineup - I was just kidding
thank goodness
I'm thinking about doing 50 $1 lineups this week and see what happens, maybe hit one big.
I haven't decided on my lineups, yet, but so far:
Cash game considerations
QB: Brady, Rodgers, Luck, Rothlisberger, Newton(#1), Mariota
RB: Peterson(#1), Lynch, Murray, Charles, Gordon, Woodhead, Lewis
WR: Marshall(#1), Brown, Hilton, Edelman, Thomas, Sanders, Landry, Fitzgerald, Moncrief
TE: Gronk(#1), Olsen, Kelce
K: anybody
D: Seahawks(#1), Texans, Panthers, Broncos, Browns
Tournaments
QB: Rodgers, Newton, Mariota, Dalton, Foles
RB: Peterson, Charles, Murray, Crowell, Stewart, Gordon, Woodhead, Miller
WR: Thomas, Sanders, Green, Wright, Hilton, Robinson, Hurns, Charles Johnson, Stevie Johnson, Britt, John Brown, Rishard Matthews, Landry, Watkins, Baldwin, James Jones, Maclin
TE: Gronk, Cook, Ebron, Olsen
D: Texans, Panthers, Broncos, Browns

No one like LeVeon Bell this week?
Harlem how has it been spending money on a defense?
I always cheap out on them and get one of the bottom dwellers. Have you found it worth the money to get a top D?
Since we're talking gambling, this is my lineup for my espn money league. Jones screwed me wth that fumble but what do yall think of the rest of the lineup
The difference in a defense you like vs a cheap one is normally minimal ($300-500). I always pick the defense I love the most that week, then work backwards if it means the difference in someone like Gronk or a lesser TE for example.
Didn't you just say you've lost overall?
I don't usually spend up on a defense because I value players more at the expense of the D..if I can make room for a better player, I'll take it instead of the defense, since there's a lot of variance with defense (lucky fumbles, blocked punts, returns, etc, even the worst defense could get one of those)
In cash games, your opponent's ownage percentage is mostly meaningless, so an expensive play like Seattle makes sense this week..for tournaments, I probably won't even consider them, since I'm expecting that they are going to be owned at an astronomical rate in every tournament..
I agree with your strategy on defenses to an extent..I don't get bottom dwellers, but I usually go middle of the pack, especially if that defense is playing against a ty QB(like the Falcons this week, risky play, but could be rewarding)..
I'd swap in Ivory for Murray and Maclin for BenjaminSince we're talking gambling, this is my lineup for my espn money league. Jones screwed me wth that fumble but what do yall think of the rest of the lineup
Benjamin has been on one of the luckiest streaks youll ever see, tbh
I slapped him in couple fan duels to see if the luck continues but I'm sure he'll be a dud.Benjamin has been on one of the luckiest streaks youll ever see, tbh
I would swap Ivory in but he's still qustionable to play. That Browns D gave up 28 points to Ivory first week so I'm hoping Murray can do the same. Maclin has been complete ass this year.
In my two fantasy leagues two dumb s picked him up off waivers and I was able to nab their dropped Decker and Dez BryantBenjamin has been on one of the luckiest streaks youll ever see, tbh
Outside of AB I don't have a reliable WR2Benjamin has been on one of the luckiest streaks youll ever see, tbh
I'm going for the HR
Dez I can understand dropping(probably done for the season), but Decker?? lmaoIn my two fantasy leagues two dumb s picked him up off waivers and I was able to nab their dropped Decker and Dez Bryant
Yup, but it wasn't because of the defense. Basically, pick the defense you like best then work backwards was my suggestion
In 2 of the 3 $2 tournaments I played last week, I had DEN defense for example. I cashed out both of those. It's not because of Denver defense but it helped and didn't cost me any player I really liked to get them. If it would have, I would have gone elsewhere.
I concur. I look for the cheapo D that's going against a mediocre offense.
