"PokerStars is one of the most dominant and trusted brands in online gaming. We're proud to add our innovative platform to Amaya's portfolio of leading technology companies, and offer the thrill of daily fantasy to sports fans across the country," says Matthew Primeaux, CEO of StarsDraft.

Free to enter, but with real-money prizes, Bankroll Builder offers users the opportunity to participate in practice sessions against a computer-generated opponent to build skill and learn the game in a no-risk environment. Another original feature, the Victron, which is beneficial to both new and experienced users, allows the player to research and build a lineup with ease by simply adjusting sliders to weight which stats are most important to them.
StarsDraft places a unique focus on protecting the integrity of games and the protection of player funds. First and foremost, player account balances are securely stored in segregated player accounts, guaranteeing that player account balances are safe.
StarsDraft will promote the passion and excitement that sports brings to millions of fans, and will provide an environment for them to compete with others who share the passion and knowledge of players and teams across a variety of U.S. sports.
