Some algorithm players enter hundreds of times. I was in a relatively small (9000 entry) contest last week. The same guy came in 4th, 9th, 11th, and 19th. Saw this stat after the scandal broke- "One study done last year showed that 91% of all payouts went to just 1.3% of the players." After seeing those odds and what happened in the contests I entered, I'm done with DFS games.
