That is really no different than casual fans coming to the track, or trying to take down a pick 6 with a $10 ticket.

Just like handicapping, if you want to win, do some research, hone your craft, don't follow the masses.

but the nice thing about handicapping...you see the pools, and the odds. just think if only some horse players had that info, while the many had to just guess who was playing what.

The ownership from the Thursday tourneys is readily available once the game starts. That can be used to project Sunday ownership. I've been using them all year for my Sunday lineups. One link is below, there are many others. The press really made a story out of nothing. Granted the DFS sites needed to do what they ended up doing not allowing employees to play, but the guy in the press was a scapegoat really.
