Some tournaments that are running for the event.
$2 buy-in 25K Guaranteed (free with first deposit)
$27 buy-in 50K Guaranteed
$200 buy-in 30K Guaranteed
Also, a bunch of smaller field tourneys that have guaranteed price pools. They run 50/50 tournaments that double up half the field. Last event they ended up giving away a bunch of cash in overlay and I'm sure this event will too.

Built mine around Wade or Hall mostly.
Tough to get a solid lineup in for this event tho.. I also went pretty heavy on Howard.
Yeah tough for sure. Almost impossible to get a lineup with McGregor in it that I like. A lot of easy money out there with people that play NFL and NBA DFS with no MMA knowledge just giving it a shot.
Yeah I ended up profiting last event, and had Castillo in all my lineups...I like getting in early, before all the mma fans find out about it. Lol
Same here. Didn't do great in tournaments but took down a ton of H2Hs and 50/50s. Seems nobody has really developed a great strategy for MMA DFS yet.
With NFL going on right before the fights I'm sure a bunch of NFL players will try out today. Easy money people!
Only for US and Canada? :(
StephenLangdown - Only for US and Canada? :(
Yeah, unfortunately there are a lot of politics involved. Even a couple US states are banned due to their state laws.
The DFS industry is exploding right now so Im sure those states and other parts of the world will get involved soon. Last year, Fanduel, had just under 200K active users in 4th quarter. This year they had over 1 million. Same for DraftKings (smaller overall numbers but the same growth) plus they are taking on other sports such as MMA, lacrosse, etc.
I know Fantasy MMA isn't new to the industry but having companies like DraftKings getting involved will bring in players from other sports. In which, MMA fans having a significant edge over. That is why getting in now on DraftKings is very profitable if you have the knowledge of MMA and while people are still developing strategies for.

Howell is a good pick, he took his debut on short notice. He trains with Grice, he's got skills, and very tough.
^cheers for the answer!
