number of entries for the week 11 FBG Fanduel final? (1 Viewer)

I'd be shocked if it is 350/week. Some weeks there have been very few tickets. Last week there were more than 350. Remember that you top out at 10, so some of those trains may not be getting tickets now.

 
Last year there were 2776 entries, I was expecting less this year as they were having some really good weeks. However, they have also had two really bad weeks recently so it might end up being right around the same amount. You might be able to get a general idea by re-reading the contest thread as the cutoff is posted most (but not all) weeks. I have not been keeping track.

EDIT: Went and did some quick checks and we should be sitting at about 2129 entrants right now. There could be a few less for winners that maxed out at 10 tickets already.

Which leads to the next question: How many of those 2100+ entrants are from NY, and will FD give in to the NYAG before next week?

Or, what if DFS gets ruled illegal in all states, what happens to people with tickets?

Some people might consider me biased, which is fine, but I would be HIGHLY surprised if DFS was illegal in all states at any point in time, let alone within a few weeks.

That said, I would imagine the total prize pool would be divided by the number of entrants and everybody would take an equal cut...that is the way it has worked in other similar, but not identical, examples (i.e., when DraftStreet was bought out and Q tickets had not yet been redeemed in the baseball championship).

That seems reasonable if the contest can't be run because all states simultaneously make DFS illegal tomorrow. However, I agree with you that is unlikely within the next two weeks (or ever). But what about people who currently have tickets but also live in NY? Are they SOL? Will the prizes be reduced so they can get their cut? Will the site give them their equity without reducing the total prizes?

 
jigandreel 101.36

blackeyedjoe 97.36

sigmund bloom 95.08

And they are done. Looks like fairly easy tickets this week.

I guarantee the total prizes will not be reduced. And it is unlikely that FanDuel will ban NY residents in the next 7 days. Here is the latest:

Woah, even my crappy teams managed to get 102.36 this week. What do we win?

 
Entered the night with washington needing 4.7 for another ticket. 4.2 is what he delivered. What a train wreck of a game. The AFC looks really, really bad outside of NE and Pitt (w/ Ben).

Nice.. Not in the money at 103, but another ticket which will give me 5 :popcorn:

 
I had such a terrible week I didn't get any additional ticket this week - lol. Lost every contest I entered at FD and DK. Gives me alot of confidence heading into the finals this week.
