DraftKings Inc. cut its full-year outlook on Thursday after the company revealed that its profitability was lower due to unfavorable game outcomes for its sportsbook.

And the results that hurt DraftKings DKNG were NFL games.

“NFL outcomes early in the fourth quarter … have resulted in headwinds to revenue and adjusted EBITDA of $250 million and $175 million, respectively,” DraftKings CEO Jason Robins said.


He added that in the fourth quarter, the company experienced “the most customer-friendly stretch of NFL sport outcomes we have ever seen.” Bookmakers always come out on top. Of course, there are temporary fluctuations when customers are lucky and favorites win more often. I was also into betting for a while, but everyone will lose everything one day. Now I have already started betting less. I started reading on https://pl.bestcasinos-pl.com/minimum-deposit-casinos/od-1-zl/ about minimum deposit casinos. For me, it is much more interesting, or I have lost interest in betting. In any case, I will continue reading about it.

They make money on the margin built into the odds. They have an ace up their sleeve.

Sounds just like Hard Rock Bet but not nearly as horrible

What a joke these legal books are picking & choosing at their own convenience how & when they cater to their customers

Welcome to the world of legit books

lol, no doubt about it.

But it’s a dual use statement.

Releasing financials and guidance will happen whether or not they win or lose.

This time around they get some bonus marketing, consider it a rebate to them for their loss.

I could be wrong but this has not been just NFL. All the 4 major sports since the start of MLB this season have seen, at least to me, chalk winning a higher percentage than years past. Factor in UFC/MMA where an underdog hardly ever wins, and I wouldn’t doubt that Joe Public has been having a good year and not just quarter.

With that being said, variance is a thing. It’ll turn around for us dog bettors.

Road dogs in the MAC are hitting quite well this year during the week, for like a month now.

MAC road dogs last night went 2-1, yes NCAAF. I’m referring to a specific conference and not overall.

Ah, gotcha. I’m a ML guy so tend to think that way. All of the favs in NCAAF so far this week have won. ML’s tend to be used more in Joe Public parlay’s so, yeh, its been a good year in all sports for those guys.

Another NFL fav winning. Unreal.
