A quick introduction for new players that explains how the
FanDuel instant fantasy sports games work.
Fanduel offers daily fantasy baseball contests that let you compete against other baseball fans to see who picks a better lineup of players for a specific day?s games. Getting started just takes a few minutes.
Here?s how it works:
Go to Fanduel.com.
Register your account.
If you want to play for cash, make a deposit by Paypal or credit card.
Pick a lineup within the salary cap for the upcoming day?s games.
Choose what stakes (free, $5, $10, $25, $50, or $100) you want to play for.
Score points that day based on the performance of your players.
Win (or lose), with settlement for cash games taking place just a few hours after the last game ends.
Because contests only last for one day, you can play on the days when you have time, and not when you?re too busy. You can also gain an advantage over your opponents by taking situations factors such as park, hot streaks, or favorable matchups into account. We'll have more on how to do that in a future article.
Good luck!
