po69 Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 I am not that great with fantasy football, but I will give this a shot. This is the last week of the beta version of this site that will go live next week. The site was started by Chris Moneymaker and Matt Stout among a few other poker players. Instead of spending big money on advertising, they are using the word of mouth approach for a while. They are offering a $30,000 free roll this weekend and paying out 750 places in all. Last week only about 2000 people played in the initial free roll. As a BONUS, anyone who signs up under my friends invitation will be invited for a referral only free roll. He cant afford to give out $30,000, but his free roll will be for around $1000 or so for maybe 40-60 players. Not bad odds. Here is the link to sign up for this weekend. https://beta.fantasydraft.com/play/coushatta3434 Can someone give me some hints on who to take for a quarterback this weekend?? Do you want to be on the bottom floor when this site goes live next weekend?? This site will be pretty big during the NBA season and NFL playoffs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

po69 Posted November 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 Well not exactly my link, but thanks anyway. By the way, you can use any username that you want for the site. Having said that po69 is mine. But you can go whatever you want Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StayGolden Posted November 8, 2014 Report Share Posted November 8, 2014 what the hell is "fantasy cash" because that is the prize. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
po69 Posted November 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2014 It is cash to be used to enter all of the other contests. Like if you win $200, then you can enter a $25 fantasy daily and the entry fee comes out of the cash. But any cash won from those can immediately be withdrawn. Or you could actually have some head to head competitions and get paid if you win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trytrytry Posted November 8, 2014 Report Share Posted November 8, 2014 so your saying po69po69po69 is still a username option? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
po69 Posted November 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2014 That would work try3. But you are not allowed to enter( just kidding). If you enter ,then I know that I have not shot. Having said that, I KNOW that you see the value here in getting in on the bottom floor to be ready when the site goes live next week. They are advertising at the WSOP final table this week quite a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trytrytry Posted November 8, 2014 Report Share Posted November 8, 2014 ill take a pass on this hype shop to be honest..no interest.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
po69 Posted November 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2014 Ok some people wish that they had got in real early on bitcoins as well. This shop will offer bitcoin deposits and payouts as well I think, I know that paypal is an obvious choice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heartman Posted November 8, 2014 Report Share Posted November 8, 2014 I joined the freeroll. The site looks good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heartman Posted November 8, 2014 Report Share Posted November 8, 2014 I'm not sure what happened but not getting the site up for the start of football season is a big mistake. The daily sites make more from football than all other sports combined. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
po69 Posted November 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2014 Feel free to report any bugs that you might see. There really shouldn't be any since this is now the second weekend of trying it out. Or maybe you have a recommendation on how to make it more user friendly.

po69 Posted November 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2014 I am taking Big Ben at QB today. And Murray at RB and Witten at TE. The rest of my team sucks but maybe they have breakout days today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StayGolden Posted November 9, 2014 Report Share Posted November 9, 2014 Are you a freaking investor in this site or something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
po69 Posted November 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2014 I very well might be! I remember 3 years ago when someone tried to get me to buy bitcoins. At the time I had quite a bit of money that I could have spent. Well I didn't do it. Then about 18 months ago there was a story on 60 Minutes all about bitcoins. They were talking about the craze, but the funny thing is that they were not worth a huge amount of money at that time. It wasn't until a few weeks after that story did they increase a lot in value. Well I didn't buy into them at that point either. Now they are really too expensive to buy as an investment, but that at time it didn't cost much. Well I fucked up back then, but I am not letting it happen again. I mean this wont be that much money per year. I may get $30,000-40,000 a year from this. Not even sure that is even worth the hassle, but the site has huge potential. They are getting a lot of publicity this week at the final table for the WSOP which starts tomorrow. And we are really trying to be a good site when basketball season gets rolling when football is done. And I will probably just send all of that money to sportsbooks like 5dimes.

Hangover Posted November 9, 2014 Report Share Posted November 9, 2014 I would be wary of with these pop up daily fantasy sites and stick with the big boys for now. Anyone can start them because it does not require much bankroll to start....a scammers dream. Not saying thats what this is but with the huge surge in popularity one should expect a wave of hit n run daily fantasy shops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
po69 Posted November 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2014 Fair enough, but you will see this one next season as well as EVERYDAY during the NBA season. So far most of the members will offer their own tournaments each week for small buyins under $100 I think. A few of the other big players will have some heads up matches for $500 or so. But those will be against other members who are just friends probably. The site will have a leaderboard of players in some fashion. But that hasn't been decided up yet since some guys may not want to be ranked. (IE, you might not want others to know that you kick ass at fantasy football) And I might not want everyone to know that I suck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
po69 Posted November 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2014 Well the site isn't live just yet, but it could even be better in its current format. I will post the email that I received yesterday. But today they had TONS of overlays in the guarantee tournaments. For instance, in 2 $10 tournaments that guaranteed $1000 only had 55 players. Nice overlay for paying 25 places. Also, in 2 weeks they will have a $400,000 guaranteed tournament with a "guaranteed overlay. " They have Drew Brees endorsement as well as Jordy Nelson. Both of those guys play each week too,. Jimmy Johnson is playing each week and endorses the site Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By now you gotta sick of the "We are almost ready" emails, right? Well...now we have an OFFICIAL LAUNCH DATE of DECEMBER 7th....BUT...and this is an awesome BUT...you can NOW deposit money...and there are now contests you can play...AND....and this is the great part.....they have GUARANTEED prize pools...whether they meet the required number of players or not...with buy ins of all ranges. So while we are still 'officially' in BETA mode until the 7th...this is going to probably be your BEST two weeks with the BEST odds of cashing. And then...to kick things off there will be a $400k guarantee...that will almost SURELY fall short of the players they need to hit $400k!

As part of this release we added an option to your My Referrals page that allows you to send a custom message to potential referrals including this video.

po69 Posted November 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 In the $25 leagues for tonight and tomorrow they are guaranteeing $2250. Only 34 people have signed up at this time. You do the math Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

po69 Posted November 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 Well I spent about $150 yesterday and it looks like I will make a small profit. I really could use Pierre Thomas to get a TD before the game is over though! By the way, the site is really starting to take off! It is still in the beta stage and they already have Drew Brees, Jordy Nelson, Jimmy Johnson and Boomer on board. Check out the newest youtube commercial with those guys talking about the league The site is really starting to take off! Get on board! I will have some freerolls for ONLY my signups in a few weeks. Wont be for $30,000. I cant afford that much, but I can afford $1000 or $2000.
