This Week In Fantasy: DFS Tout DraftKings Showdown, Awesemo vs. EmpireMaker2 | 10/22

This Week In Fantasy we’re taken down the fascinating and dangerous trail to a land known as DFS Twitter, where Tout Wars rage at random, and bet shaming reigns supreme. But this war was to be different…earth-moving.

What began as an open betting offer by Blake “EmpireMaker2” Stevenson among top sports betting and DFS juggernauts was quickly met by the #1 Daily Fantasy Player in the World, Alex “Awesemo” Baker. But that was just the beginning.

It was then a Tout War began to brew, and what would a Tout War in 2020 be without the blessing of DraftCheat and Chris Randone?

Yet what this would spawn would gradually spark wildfires across the DFS Twitter landscape, as touts from near and far would join in as bets with self-imposed juice would be rising from every direction.

 

The wagers with every participant are more than even the IRS could keep track of, but ultimately the big focal point is between Awesemo and EM2. The stage? DraftKings ThunderDome, and in the best of ten matches set in the DFS arena-of-arenas (at least when it comes to public buy-ins).

 

And EM2 began lashing in every direction…

The first day of the gauntlet of ten $5,300 Thunderdomes began with PGA in Thursday’s start of the ZOZO Championship, with wagers on the match itself (much of which entertained by EM2) and shit-talking every step of the way.

Naturally, things happened along the way.

The battle continues into the weekend, when the PGA ZOZO Championship rounds to conclusion and Week 7 NFL DFS rolls into the afternoon. Stay tuned on Twitter.
