Def. Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 How much was entry & fees? If it cost 125-150, not gonna lie that a 500+ payout would be pretty tempting. If the fees are in the 200+ range, I'd let it ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matmoe3 Posted December 20, 2016 Author Share Posted December 20, 2016 Fee was 125. Just squeaked into the playoffs and pass the first round, other guy has been rolling. I see me getting an L. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irish Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 (edited) I split as often as I can, with there being so much luck in this game, injuries, bad weather spots this time of year, it just makes sense to me. I am in 4 title games out of 10 leagues I was in, made the playoffs in 9 out of 10 and I'm splitting the monies for 1st and 2nd place in all 4 leagues.

Riffraff Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Not a fan of it for regular pots, but if the pot was $100k - $200k, I think paying the house off would be worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMD Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 On one hand you can still win the title either way with less risk of losing money. But personally, I'm all or nothing. I've split in poker many times but not in fantasy football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevegrab Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Fee was 125. Just squeaked into the playoffs and pass the first round, other guy has been rolling. I see me getting an L. Sounds like he has the dominant team, so why would he make the offer to split? I don't think we'd ever had owners split in our league, 1st = 385 2nd = 210 (entry is $70) which are much closer than yours, so I can see why it would be considered.

Both Luck and Cousins should put up decent numbers RB1 - wash. Both Bell and Elliott should be considered top-end RBs in PPR formats this week. RB2 - wash. Gore has had TDs vultured but has the better matchup than Howard. WR1 - OBJ by a mile. Crabtree has been hot-and-cold and is nursing a couple minor-yet-nagging-injuries WR2 - Cooks by a nose. Fitz has been good vs. SEA and Cooks has been hot-and-cold. WR3 - wash. Both are PPR gold. Maybe ever-so-slight lean to Landry but not enough to pick one over the other. Flex - wash. Martin was held in check this past week, but better matchup this week. Do you trust Green coming back from injury against the Texans? I don't. TE - wash. Both should be good TE picks this week. I may even lean Ertz a little. PK / DEF - washes. There's no way in hell I'd take the split. The only way I'd take a split is if my team was riddled with injuries and/or my opponent was the clear favorite. In this case, it's close enough to risk it. Why even play fantasy football if you're going to just give up at the end? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaft Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 (edited) OP, why would you let Huddlers inside your brain? There are pros and cons to both. And you will still be playing for the championship. In one of my leagues, besides the pot, the winner also gets to pick their draft spot next season.

Chaim Witz Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 I had the same offer made to me this morning, regarding a 750/350, 1st/2nd place. Hell, we both guarantee ourselves $550 in a $100 entry league, but the game will still be played to decide the champion. Winning the championship is more important to me than how much I win (just as long as I win some moolah!). It's up to you, but if the championship is what means most, then by all means, win the championship! It's pretty much independent of what deal you made regarding the coin.

DanTheMan_5 Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 Tell him you want 60/40, otherwise go big or go home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isleseeya Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 I have done it. But 60/40 split Winner gets 60 percent of pot and loser gets 40. I am thinking of offering it to my opponent this week as $3300 in play but his line up is stronger ( thanks to Gordon and Reed injuries for me ) and I don't believe he will take it. May just let it fly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
