    Came across this site a couple weeks ago and it is interesting.

    Basically you choose a fantasy team with a salary cap, and you can compete against others for money.

    Whether its a head to head match up ($5 entry, winner take $9, etc) or a large entry league (100+) with a large cash purse.

    Totally legal, since it is considered a game of skill.

    If anybody is interested, email me or message me and I can provide a referral link that will allow you to receive 10 bucks free when you join and deposit.

    And if anyone wants to challenge me off a friendly wager, my user ID is findog19

    And no, I'm not affiliated with this site at all. Just love fantasy football and want to make some $$$

    Made some sweet bank last week, barely missed out on finishing in the money on a large pool.

    Hoping to take down 4 others this week in a 5 team and win some scratch.


    This is pretty fun, its similar to online poker but with fantasy sports.

    Explain how it works better, and in a less salesy way.

    They already have a picture of you up, sans neckbeard, explaining why you enjoy the site so much. Well done, Mr. Vance.

    I just joined when moes posted this.

    it's fantasy football (or other sports) with a salary cap

    You pick a team. Salary max, lineup specs, and scoring system outlined. You don't see anyone else's choices until the games start and the rosters are locked. Winner takes home the cash

    Different setups: Head-to-head (if you beat 1 other guy, you win...if he wins, he gets the cash), 5 team league, 10 team league. In those, the league creator chooses the payout (top 1/3, top 1/4, winner take all, etc.)

    Different money values to join a daily game. From free to $1 to $5 to $50, etc.

    You can create your own H2H or league if you want to dictate the payout, etc.

    If we get enough people we should use this thread to get a 5 teamer going or maybe even a 10.

    I'm looking to make some green off you suckers.

    I'm going up against him in the H2H matchup. I figure he will pwn me in the PPR league this week (Andre being out, Boldin on a bye), so I'm going to try and take his money instead. :p

    I'll join, quick question though, do you randomly get paired up with someone if you want to do H2H or do you have to find someone?

    Second question, F*** Paypal, can I get my money out another way, or will it strictly be that route?

    I think it says if its over $250 you can get a check issued, otherwise its paypal.

    Gotta tip the house if you win anyway though, thats basic ****.

    I've got all my money staked right now, and the 4% bonus is kind of lame.

    I'll play you next week. (hopefully)

    Yeah the percentaged bonus is lame, but the games are easy and the money is real. Thanks for the link, hope you got your $10, even if it is 4% at a time.

    I understand the purpose is to prevent fraud, it is better than betting sites that keep separate accounts for "bonus" money and then never really let you cash in on it.
