WHO CREATED THIS?
Many DFS content creators are asked for their picks and plays but my emails and DMs are full of questions about process, strategy, game theory, correlation, leverage etc.
I’m Tyler Tamboline aka ToeTagginTambo. I’ve been playing DFS since 2014, focusing mainly on PGA/NFL and some of the other sports. I started in the DFS content space in 2018 and have worked at many sites around the industry, picking up knowledge and experience along the way. I’ve also been featured on some main podcasts/shows around the industry, such as the Fantasy Golf Degenerates podcast for 5+ years, to go along with weekly shows talking PGA/NFL with Pat Mayo. The process and strategy tips and game theory advice on these shows have helped people win life-changing money along the way.
I’ve also done pretty well for myself playing the game!
Some of my biggest personal results with DFS have come from qualifying for Live Finals, including DraftKings King of the Beach where I’ve finished 3rd (2017), 2nd (2021) and 6th (2022) for winnings of over $250K+ in just those events.
I’ve also won $100K+ 8 times and have had many more $50K+ wins throughout my journey playing DFS.
Teaching DFS process/strategy, along with coaching, training and developing others to find success with DFS are my biggest passions!
