No, FanDuel and all DFS sites aren’t considered gambling. They provide games based on skill that require knowledge, research, strategy, and collectively, said skill. It’s true that you can luck into winnings in any given contest, but you’re not going to consistently win if you’re not actually “good” at daily fantasy sports.
FanDuel is fighting the good fight to be available everywhere and to everyone, but right now some states don’t allow DFS, or FanDuel doesn’t offer it. You can still freely play FD for money in most states, but the likes of Washington, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, Louisiana, Alabama, and Iowa are presently off-limits. Be sure to check for updates and make sure it’s legal to play wherever you are!
