Tonight marks the three year anniversary of one of the most impactful days of my life. Some may argue that a million dollars isn’t “life-changing money,” but I can say unequivocally that winning the DraftKings milly maker changed the entire trajectory of my life.

Yesterday, I was laid off.
I’ll always be grateful to Stokastic for giving me my first shot at DFS content. I had great co-workers, and I hope to work with some of them again one day. The community was awesome. I felt accepted from day one and made some lasting connections.

I finally quit my job. It was a long time coming, and it felt good.
In the short term, at least, I'll be playing DFS professionally. I'll also do some DFS content, including a weekly show at

Can't wait to get started!

Two years ago today I had my first six-figure DFS win. Remember it like it was yesterday and feels like a different lifetime. Had a tennis match immediately after and I was on the court legitimately wondering, for the first time in my life, if I was dreaming. 😂 Totally surreal.

Super Bowl Sunday has arrived, and we have several shorts at 5, 6, even 7 figures on DraftKings. More casual players duping each other a million times means more to be gained by getting different. Here is how I’ll be approaching Chiefs-49ers for the largest field tournaments:

In August of '21 I'd grown tired of my job as a lawyer. I mentioned to some cousins my interest in DFS content, but was nervous to take the leap. Had almost no experience. Still, two cousins followed up by sending me job postings, including one at Awesemo. So, 2 years ago today:

Initially I felt self-conscious. Could I pull it off? But once I saw how cool Greg looked in his bucket hat I decided it was worth a try. I put it on and wow, instant magic. All 👀 on me, the coolest guy in the room. I could feel everyone wondering, where can I get a bucket hat?

As the only analyst as Stokastic who does not have tens of thousands of followers, I know how hard it can be to gain traction in this industry. So help me give a shout out to some lesser-known touts. Who are some of your favorite touts with under 10K followers?

This is extremely problematic. Obviously, these colluders were extremely dumb. But super teams can be made less obviously. And do we think DK is checking when there doesn’t happen to be someone there willing to report it (despite benefitting from it)? I have no idea.

How many times will this lineup be duped in the large $15 entry contest on DraftKings tonight? It uses the full salary. I’m setting the over/under at 749.5 entries.

Have to give a lot of credit to the projections at

I cannot overstate how much I hate this. Fuck you, Lyft and Uber.
Lyft announces it is "shutting down operations in Minneapolis" and Uber will "stop operating...in the entire metro area including the airport" after the city passed a minimum wage for rideshare drivers.
Companies that rely on paying poverty wages simply should not exist.

He made himself known to the DFS world by taking home the DK FFWC ($2.5MM prize!) in 2020, followed by a memorable interview. He continued his meteoric rise in 2021, winning RG's TPOY. Tomorrow I'll be interviewing

I can't get over the fact that last night's winning lineup had nobody under 10% owned, used the chalkiest Captain of the year, used $49600 salary, and was somehow only entered 5 times out of across 117K entries. Incredible.

Bills and Broncos tonight for MNF. Can they score two offensive TDs? Is that still allowed on PrimeTime games? I'll be trying to make some DraftKings Showdown lineups that won't be duplicated too much in large field GPPs. Here's my approach to the slate:

The Saints should start Taysom Hill on Saturday, since they won't be able to throw the ball in the wind anyway and at least having a rushing QB will keep the Browns guessing as to who will run it. Yes, I say this because it would benefit me.

Seahawks at Cowboys for MNF. Some really solid plays at varying price points, without any true slam dunk value. Not the most straightforward slate we've had, but it's not a Chiefs slate, either. Here is how I'll be approaching it for large field DraftKings tournaments:

Aaaand… it’s appendicitis. Appendectomy tomorrow. Would be lying if I said I’m not freaking out a bit. Google says 0.7% mortality for the surgery. Wife says that’s nothing. To a GPP player like me, that’s MASSIVE.
Been fighting what is likely food poisoning past 3 days. Worst pain gone, but persistent dehydration and mild fever remain. After some discussion with family my wife took me to ER to get checked for appendicitis. Three hour wait in warm room, can’t drink water. ENJOY YOUR 4TH!
