Play Daily and Weekly Fantasy Baseball Games

Monday, August 23rd, 2010

The new fantasy week gets off to a hot start tonight (Monday) at 7:05 pm ET with daily and weekly fantasy baseball games. Pick which fantasy games you want to play, fill out your fantasy lineup, and watch the pro games to see how the results pan out.

Fantazzle’s daily fantasy baseball games give you the option of playing a daily short duration game, where you can set your lineup in the morning or afternoon, and find out the results when the games are over that night. There’s never any need to worry about missing a day of exciting fantasy baseball action! All daily games start with the first pro baseball game of the day, allowing you to select any player who is participating in games that day.

Our weekly fantasy baseball games give you a similar experience, while giving you the excitement and competitiveness of a regular season-long fantasy game, without the long drag of a 162-game season. Play daily or weekly fantasy baseball tonight, but make sure to pick your team before the games start at 7:05 pm ET tonight!

High Stakes Fantasy Football

Fantazzle’s High Stakes Fantasy Football Leagues are still forming, as $1,000 leagues are filling up every day, while there are still some openings in our $10,000 high stakes leagues.

Step up and join the big boys before it’s too late, and give yourself the chance to win one of our top fantasy football cash prizes in our high stakes leagues!

Good luck to all who enter the leagues and games!

Fatty’s All-Stars Fantasy Poker Breakdown

Thursday, July 1st, 2010

We have already broken down the “Fatty’s Five” group, now it is time to breakdown the “Fatty’s All-Stars” in the free fantasy poker game. Don’t think this is useless information. Remember, your Fatty’s players receive double the amount of points that your other 8 players do. If I were you, I’d pay close attention.

The one player that sticks out the most in this group, and not just for his facial features has gotta be Mike “The Nose.” He’s the heart, the soul and the owner of Fatty’s in New York. As the most experienced poker players, next to Old Man Bill ofcourse, he has gotta be a favorite to lead the Fatty’s crew. The “Nose” will be looking to better his 2009 Main Event finish where he cashed out with nearly $33,000. Not bad at all for a week of work.

Kenny “Kendo” is a steady and reliable player who will be at the Main Event after winning a charity poker game earlier this year. The family man says Phil Ivey best fits his style of play. If he takes the ways of winning from Ivey then cashing out at the Main Event is a real possibility.

From what we’ve heard about Carmine, he’s not the guy to pick out of this group. But this will be his second appearance at the Main Event. Maybe 2010 is the year is luck finally turns around and he catches some river cards.

Then there’s Scottie Mayhem. A fairly new poker player compared to the rest of the All-Stars, his competitiveness makes him a safe pick. But one problem, this guys wears a hat with his name on it. C’mon who does that? Just for that, he’s off my fantasy poker team.

Saving the best for last. “Old Man” Bill has been playing poker since FDR was sitting in the White House. That is what you call experience. The 89-year old great grandpa had a distinguished career as a merchant marine chief engineer and business entrepreneur. Now he takes everyone’s money at Fatty’s. If experience and ruthlessness is your key in selecting the All-Star, Old Man Bill is your go to guy.

OUR FATTY’S ALL-STAR PICK: All 5 guys on this list have the possibility of cashing out in the Main Event. But our All-Star selection for the free fantasy poker game is going to the Fatty’s owner, Mike “The Nose.”

Be sure to get your fantasy poker lineups in before July 5th when the Main Event starts.

World Cup Bracket Update — Quarterfinals Set

Wednesday, June 30th, 2010

The 2010 World Cup is entering the quarterfinals this Friday without the USA team in competition, but there is still plenty to be excited about, especially for the leaders of our World Cup Bracket game.

The matchups alone should have all soccer fanatics amped for the next round of the tournament, as the action begins on July 2nd with battles between Uruguay and Ghana, and Netherlands and Brazil.

The excitement of the tournament ensues on Saturday, July 3rd, as Argentina takes on Germany, and Paraguay prepares to battle top-ranked Spain.

While you can’t do much else other than cheer on your favorite team that is still alive in the FIFA World Cup, there’s still plenty you can do to better your placing in Fantazzle’s World Cup Standings page.

Remember, even if your World Cup Bracket appears destroyed by early exits, you can earn points for referring friends, which will be added to your final point total when the tournament ends on July 11th, 2010. The first place bracket and 50th place bracket at the moment are only separated by 4 points. Take action and start referring friends to put you atop. You can jump up near the top by only referring a few.

Fantasy players can also take precautions in case of a tie, as anyone who plays Fantazzle fantasy sports games can earn FanStock for tie-breaker points. The World Cup Bracket Game may be drawing to a close, but there are still two rounds and a championship game left to help your bracket earn extra points.

Keep in mind that Fantazzle isn’t stopping their summer games and fantasy promotions with the World Cup. Remember to play the FREE Fantasy Poker Challenge, as Fantazzle sponsors Fatty’s Poker in a fresh union of poker and fantasy games!

For updates and information on the free fantasy poker game, scoring, cash prizes, and Fatty’s Poker, check back regularly on the Fantazzle Blog until the game starts on July 5th, 2010.
