    Not telling you how to live your life, sports betting and fantasy football was not how the game was meant to be consumed and it is ruining the game. People thinking they are Henry Hill or an NFL GM because they won a fantasy league.

    I don't do fantasy football and don't gamble with my own money. Hell, aside from a bet with a friend or buying squares on a SB board this is the first time I've used sportsbook apps. Did DraftKings first. Lost the $300 bonus bets and my initial $20 deposit. Deleted my account with them. Then did Fanduel and turned their $200 bonus bets into $650 profit plus $20 back from the DK loss and initial FD deposit of 25. Withdrew that and closed account. Did Bet365 next, turned their $200 bonus bets into $240.85, with a deposit of $60. Current balance $312.94, so $252.94 free money, withdrawing today and closing after. Have ESPN Bet currently waiting on tonights game between Tampa/Detroit to finiah, deposited 25 with 1 outstanding bet and current balance of $75.66, could be 142.99 when I finish.

    So out of pocket deposits totaling $105, $953.60 in pocket and $105 returned as initial deposits, could possible go up to $1006.03 pending tonights game, or $938.60 in pocket if it loses as I used $15 of winnings to bet.

    I'll give anyone $105 if they give me it back plus $900+ extra.

    After that back to normal bitching and moaning :lol:

    I could never gamble like this with my own money. That was $800 in free bonus bets to get what I did.

    I only did this as a few people at work bet all the time, I don't have a stomache for it. I tried Draft Kings and didn't get a thing. Then hit on Fanduel. Biggest win was actually a cash bet, with a 100% profit boost promo though. After that I figured I'd sign up for more and only use the bonus money for new sign ups.

    Now I have to figure this out come tax time and waiting for all the 1099's or whate have you's

    I used to wager back in the day Vegas odds win or lose. I quit and fantasy football sickens me it is team loyalty

    No way I could bet every weekend, especially with my own money. Couple losses that made me think they rig it play calling to satisfy the books. I'd have ulcers and nervous breakdowns.

    It's definitely out of my system, kinda pisses me off though. My refrigerator went out Friday after a power outage, so everything I won and then some going towards that.
