FanDuel Picks

So there isn’t an injury void policy like literally every other pick em app has. Your player you have going over gets hurt and doesn’t return again, it’s a loss, no void. So that bumps it down 2 stars for me. Also they give you bonus funds and they expire 7 days from the time but when you get lots of bonus funds b2b due to their promos and lose track of how much expires when, you have to manually keep track of it on your own, apparently their system can’t tell you how much expires when like other pick em apps do…. They do have prize pools where you can win more than your minimum payout but them not having a void policy for players who get hurt like other apps can really ruin your chances of winning on this app. I know it’s new to the market but definitely needs a lot of updating if they want to compete with other apps, Draft Kings Pick6 seems to be the best Pick Em app for player props in Texas at the moment. They have an early exit void for players who get injured and don’t ruin your entire slip… and a lot of other good promotions as well… hopefully fan duel can do better in the future!

Let’s talk the good first. I think it’s a good looking app. It works well and is easy to use. Now the not so good. The rules need improvement. The fact if a player doesn’t play is an automatic loss is pretty terrible. Also, they clearly don’t have a solution for pushes yet. Every selection has a .5, which can really swing the odds. This leads to some selections having ONLY a more or less selection. Which then leads me to believe that that selection is a “plus money” choice. So I tend to only select plays that have a more and less option. Lastly, I’m not sure what the point is of the putting all the entries in groups. Seems pointless bc if you get your selections right, you win. Maybe there’s some legal reason or they wanna make it like their DFS where you’re “competing” with others. But you’re not in this case. Bottom line, this is a fine game but they need to improve it for me to play beyond my promo funds. I’ve had way more success on other similar games where there are more options for plays. FanDuel Picks is tough due to limited player selections, and limited choices for those players.

It may have less lines to choose from but I don’t mind it especially considering it’s a newer app. Less lines helps me make smarter bets and not feel overwhelmed honestly. And the coolest part is they have been giving like a daily bonus just a few bucks but man you can just throw that on some six leg and hit big. Good app give it time they will probably have more stuff, but even what it’s at now it’s been wonderful.
