"The same-game parlay builder is genuinely the best I've used. Putting together a 6-leg NFL SGP takes about 30 seconds. The draftkings sportsbook app is miles ahead of what I was using before."

"Withdrawals to my PayPal hit in less than 12 hours every single time. The only thing I'd improve is the notification settings — I'd like more granular control over which sports trigger alerts."
