I’m not normally a mass-entry DFS player – I’ve typically played around 15 or so lineups per site this year – but the new Player Models 2.0 we just unveiled (complete with player liking, grouping, superior multi-lineup logic, and, now, min/max exposure settings) allowed me to build a bunch of lineups in which I was really confident. Basically, we’re getting very close to being able to generate a portfolio I believe is as good or perhaps better than one I could create with no automation.
I used all the new features this week to create the majority of my lineups, and I broke down four of them in the video below (the highest and lowest-scoring on DraftKings and FanDuel, respectively). I talked about a few different pieces of strategy that I – and perhaps only I – find interesting, and I also gave a brief overview of how I used Models to help build my lineups.
The top lineup was definitely live for the $250,000 first-place prize in the $333 Wildcat, but it ended up taking fourth for $30,000. My top lineup on FanDuel was actually even better with a top 0.03% finish, but I didn’t have it in anything above a $25 buy-in.
