New Ways to Play Fantasy Football on DraftKings Arrive with Millions in Total Guaranteed Prizes
The NFL season is back, and with it are the biggest and best ways to play fantasy football that DraftKings has ever offered. In honor of American football’s return, DraftKings will be giving away massive prizes, including a $1M USD first-place prize in this Sunday’s Millionaire Maker competition – which costs only $20 USD to enter, and will have $5M USD in total prizes for winning participants. DraftKings is also introducing brand new ways to play while still offering annual favorites for its busiest sport, which saw more than 90 million paid contest entries last year.
“The return of American football is our busiest time of year, and we look forward to it with more anticipation and enthusiasm every season,” said Jeffrey Haas, Chief International Officer at DraftKings. “We are able to tap in to the growing NFL fan base around the world, with DraftKings acting as the second screen for people watching games in the UK, Ireland, Germany and Australia. We make it more fun to be a fan because you can compete with other fans at home, in their countries and around the world. DraftKings has been working tirelessly this offseason on several new game modes, including Flash Draft and Team Pick ‘Em, which we cannot wait for our customers to experience.”
NFL fans will be able to play fantasy football on DraftKings in many ways, including:
- Flash Draft: Officially launching for Week 4 of the regular season, Flash Draft is a live, in-game concept that introduces a new, rapid drafting style to customers throughout an NFL game. Customers can play before the second, third or fourth quarters begin as well as during the commercial breaks of these same quarters. Once they’ve entered a contest, customers will have five rounds lasting only 15 seconds each to choose from three player options that change from round to round.
- Team Pick ‘Em: This new game style enables fans to “pick” the winners of each game that week, competing with others for shares of a set prize amount. Now those pressed for time can choose winners in a matter of minutes.
- Showdown: Showdown is back for its first full NFL season after debuting for last year’s postseason. In Showdown, customers select players from each team in one single-game matchup, including at least one player from either team, while staying under the $50K salary limit. This can include both offensive and defensive players. DraftKings will also be offering the Showdown Captain variant which features the same game dynamic as the regular Showdown, except one player can be designated to the Captain spot and is eligible for a bonus multiplier.
- Classic: DraftKings’ Classic mode featuring the $50K salary cap requires customers to create a lineup by selecting players listed in the Player Pool, but you must stay under the $50K cap. Customers can draft from all active players who will be playing during the given game slate.
- Tiers: Previously known as “Pick ‘Em,” DraftKings’ Tiers format offers curated lineup constructions without salary cap limitations. In Tiers contests, customers create a lineup by selecting players listed and tiered out in the Player Pool.
- Leagues: Skills can be further honed through private games and contests that can be accessed by just you and your chosen group of friends.
No matter the NFL players and teams that emerge this season, DraftKings is now offering more ways than ever to maximize how fun it can be to play, watch and engage in football, all season long.

There are thousands of bets placed on Betandyou every single day. Some place small bets, some go big, and sometimes someone hits a win that stands out from everything else.
That’s exactly what happened this November – one of our players placed just $12 and hit a life-changing $54,719 payout!
What Happened Before the Big Win
It all started like any ordinary bet. Football filled the screens – Manchester, Barcelona, Milan, Porto.
The player with ID 6301********, a part of our community since June 2023, opened the Betandyou app and placed his usual pick. No big stake. No drama. Just a regular moment of excitement for the game.
The Four Predictions That Changed Everything
A $12 accumulator and four football matches. Most impressively, exact score predictions – something you don’t see every day and a true sign of confidence. And here’s how the night unfolded:
- Manchester City – Bournemouth: 3–1
- Barcelona – Elche: 3–1
- Milan – Roma: 1–0
- Porto – Braga: 2–1
One by one, the results started to fall into place. The first two games, perfect 3:1 calls. Then Milan held Roma to 1:0. And finally, Porto sealed it with a 2:1 win. Four matches. Four exact scores.
4560 Odds: A Moment You Can’t Predict
- Total odds? 4560.
- The payout? That’s $54,719!
When the final whistle blew, the numbers on the screen told a story we don’t see every day, the kind of win that makes your heart skip a beat and your hands tremble just a little before hitting “Check balance.” That’s the kind of moment every bettor dreams about, when the impossible suddenly becomes reality.
CEO Betandyou: Official Comment
“Wins like this always draw attention,” says the CEO of Betandyou. “But what excites us even more is the story behind it. Our players don’t just bet, they feel the game. They analyze, they take risks, they follow their passion. This win isn’t just luck; it’s the perfect mix of intuition, strategy, and a love for football. At Betandyou, we live for moments like these, because every big win starts with a small belief.”
More Than Just Numbers
This player has been with us for more than a year, and this time their loyalty, patience, and boldness paid off in the best possible way. It’s not really about the amount – it’s about that feeling when your choices turn into something real. When your screen lights up and you realize that yes, you just did that.
At Betandyou, that magic happens every day, sometimes quietly, sometimes spectacularly. But one thing is certain: there’s always another story waiting to be written.
So who knows? Maybe the next headline will be yours.
Stay in the game with Betandyou!

This year has seen an explosion in uptake of the service, with strong uptake globally, with Brazil, the UK, the US, Romania, Canada, Kenya and South Africa showing the highest levels of engagement.
BetBlocker’s Founder and Managing Trustee, Duncan Garvie had this to say:
“We invested a lot in 2024 improving our data, to allow us to communicate accurately the performance of our project to our supporters, and to build confidence via transparency. That’s meant ensuring that our data is exactly what we say it is and a focus on making our data easy to understand. We don’t talk about downloads. The number would be higher, but far less meaningful. When we talk about “active users” it means “users with an active BetBlocker restriction in 2025.”
I’ve been blown away by the rate of growth that BetBlocker has seen this year. We would never have imagined that this type of growth was possible at the start of the year, but the rapid and sustained upward trend strongly evidences that there is a huge need for free and anonymous support for gambling harm.
That uptake is distributed so broadly across the globe also demonstrates how universal the need for support managing access to online gambling services is in the digital age.”
