Is your DFS participation strictly Tout Daily or do you play during the week? Do you expect to keep playing once Tout Daily is over?
Steve Moyer, www.Inside Edge.com: I’m hooked. The only things that prevent me from playing a 50/50 and a tournament every day are extreme busyness or the matchups looking unfavorable. I like TOUT Daily because it’s the potential of money for nothing – a really nice freeroll.
Jeff Boggis, www.FantasyFootballEmpire.com, @JeffBoggis: I plan to play once Tout Daily is over for both fantasy baseball and fantasy football. Tout Daily has been a lot of fun and very challenging, especially with this group of competitive people. I’ve learned a lot for the different techniques and sources of information that the Touts have incorporated into their daily fantasy lineups, and I plan on increasing my knowledge to roster the best team possible in both the 50/50 and tournament style formats.
Brian Walton, www.mastersball.com, @B_Walton: I also play in the Mastersball-sponsored contests at FantasyScore once or twice per week, but that and Tout Daily is it for my daily participation right now. I haven’t yet chose to re-allocate the necessary time to play each day and won’t do it unless I can do it right.
Lawr Michaels, www.mastersball.com, @lawrmichaels: I play 4-5 times a week, though just one team per day, I just started playing golf, and I figure I will play football when that season arrives. I like playing: it is fun.
Gene McCaffrey, www.wiseguys.com, @gene2323: I play almost every day and will certainly continue after Tout Daily is finished. I only regret that I didn’t get into it sooner.
Tim McCullough, www.rotoexperts.com, @Tim_RotoExperts: I’ve been playing here and there when time allows me to do the research and/or the matchups are tempting, especially pitching-wise. I’ll probably continue to play at least until rosters expand and it becomes difficult to predict whether players are going to start or not. One thing I am looking forward to is giving DFS football a whirl. I didn’t play it last year but will definitely give it a shot this year.
Jeff Erickson, www.rotowire.com, @Jeff_Erickson: I started by playing 2-3 times a week, and now (occasionally to my chagrin) I’m playing nearly everyday – certainly almost every weekday. I absolutely love DFS, despite my mediocre results. I also despise DFS in one way – the mindshare it has taken, both in the process of setting my lineups, and in watching the results as they unfurl. I would watch games anyhow, but I gravitate towards tracking my results occasionally to the detriment of my season-long teams. I will keep playing after Tout Daily is over, and I plan to dip my toes in other DFS sports in the fall and winter.
Please send help.
Scott Engel, www.rotoexperts.com, @scotteRotoEx: I play MLB at least once a week, and I will also enter my Tout lineup in other tournaments. I go big on Fantasy NASCAR every
Sunday, usually 16 to 20 tournament lineups.
Phil Hertz, www.baseballhq.com, @prhz50: I’ll probably play occasionally, especially since I’ve built up a fair amount of cash with DFS playing so far this year. It will not, however, be a major focus of my time.
Rick Wolf, www.fantasyalarm.com, @RickWolf1: Have played a lot this summer. It makes the games a lot more fun to watch. Play to win on Tuesdays and Fridays. Take my 90 minutes to two hours with the DFS Playbook PRO and tools on Fantasy Alarm and create 3-5 lineups. Use those lineups in mostly 50-50s and multipliers. I take the lineup I like best with the most risks and put it into some tournaments as when that pays off, it funds all the losses on the other days of the week. I will definitely keep player when Tout Daily is over. It makes the games more fun to watch.
Scott Swanay, www.fantasybaseballsherpa.com, @Fantasy_Sherpa: I play only in the
Tuesday Tout Challenge and the
Friday Tout League – I have an obsessive personality, so if I played anything more than that, I’d probably look like Bobby Sands on a bad day.
Ray Murphy, www.baseballhq.com, @RayHQ: Tout Daily has made Tues/Fri my “anchor” days for DFS play, but I’m definitely playing several other days per week, and will do so after Tout Daily ends. Heck, September was my most profitable DFS month in 2014 (thank you, football money), so I’ll certainly be playing right up thru the last day of the season.
Charlie Wiegert, www.CDMSports.com, @GFFantasySports: It varies by week, but I do play multiple days. When my strategy seems to be good and the players I’m selecting do well, I’ll play consecutive days. When I lay an egg (which is most of the time), I’ll skip a few days. Plus I’m trying to save some of my balance to play football with!
Todd Zola, www.mastersball.com, @ToddZola: DFS writing has become a major part of my job so I’m playing basically every day but not near the volume of the grinders that are either looking to make a nice profit or do it for a living. I’m looking forward to the football season and won’t rule out dabbling in other sports at some point.
