Agree they will try to do something to get a slice or try to ban it. The pro leagues are all in bed with the companies which will buy them some time. Read an article,which has been taken down, that basically stated that large investors playing with computer programs are basically winning every week. The individual has basically a lottery style shot at winning with odds stacked astronomically against them.

Will be curious to see what the actual takeout turns out to be.

When the average Joe is coming up to me at work and asking me about it (cuz they know I'm a gambler) the writing is on the wall. If there wasn't a commercial every 30 seconds for it they might have been okay but there is waaaaay to much exposure right now for the powers that be not to take notice. A game of skill? Seriously? Sports betting has a better chance at being skill based then fantasy and we all know how the feds feel about sports betting

The net take is 9%. Just like in a sports book. So far they haven't yet made a profit.

This is the type of info these companies do not want out there. There is no real regulation.
