What you get

  • The deal

    You are dealt one random card from the top 20 at each position: QB, RB, WR, TE and PK, plus a team defense. Five studs and a defense.

  • Draw, then lock

    Before the games begin, click any card you don’t like to throw it away and get a new random one for that position. When the draw closes your hand is locked, then you call or fold.

  • Win the table

    You play against the other players, not the house: the dealer only deals. Your five players and your team defense earn their real fantasy points for the week, and the highest total at a table takes the table’s entire pot. Tables run every week with their own minimum and maximum Swamolian stakes, and one in six players wins.

  • Open, or just your crowd

    The site-wide league is open to every member in good standing. A private league runs unlimited tables, and members join with the invite code you hand out. Winnings move between leagues on the site ledger.
