DFS Q&A: Navigating NFL Late Swap 17 Sep 202400:30:33

In this episode, Andrew gives a step-by-step demonstration of NFL Late Swap.

Watch on YouTube: https://youtube.com/live/8qVskFOoEGE

 

00:00 Intro
01:11 When clicking on a player and viewing their frequency/FPS averages, what additional information should I consider when evaluating the players they are listed to correlate with?
05:50 Just to clarify, you won't know the exact exposures of players on multi-fill (auto-fill) until after you fill your contests, correct?
07:20 When building lineups for a smaller contest (less than 5,000), is it advisable to use the number of lineups in that contest instead?
08:28 If I’m playing multiple 20-max contests and using autofill to fill my entries how do I play a few of the same higher ROI lineups that I like in the other contest since it doesn’t dupe lineups across entries?
09:34 Is it better to do 20 entries into 1 multi-entry contest, or 20 entries into 20 single-entry contests?
11:36 How do you all interpret the results when simming your build against itself in MLB?
15:12 In NFL Showdown, it seems that limiting dupes in large field contests tanks your 99th % profit. In the $3 20-max, I had a top 10 sim win rate and positive Sim ROI, but my 99th % profit was horrendous. Do you have any insight as to why this is?
16:45 Can you show me how to create a rule that doesn't allow a player to be played with another player?
18:17 I've been adjusting my min-max exposures in the Direct Fill, and then switching over to Auto Fill to save my lineups. Is this correct?
19:06 Could we go over a late swap build?
25:30 Do I need to change my sim settings to live before swapping?
29:00 Do you use the favorite feature at all? Are there any rules of thumb for it or just a simple way to staple a lineup you want to take a shot on?

DFS Q&A: Is there a way to see what the "best" actual score lineup was for a slate? 07 May 202400:13:18

On this episode, Andrew walks through how to analyze lineups from past slates.

Watch on YouTube: https://youtube.com/live/15BaY37sGz8

00:00 Intro
01:35 If I want to see how a new set of lineups would’ve graded out post-contest for a past slate, how do I do that?
02:40 Is there a way to use the actual score + the optimizer to see what the "Best" actual score lineup was for a slate?
05:55 I would like to set Min/Max exp on say 4 teams based on ownership while leaving the remaining teams on the slate at 0/100 to let Sims decide.
10:35 If I’m building portfolios I’d say 20 lineups and I’m grading those portfolios on RAROI, would using an omega ratio for each portfolio on top of the RAROI SS generates be double counting?

04:27 When I use a filter to sort ROI greater than 0, I end up with only 300 lineups out of 5000. Is that normal?
09:55 How do I calculate the max exposure of a player to set so that I get no more than 30% leverage on the player if I am getting more than 30% leverage after my build?
16:10 Why did the autofill generate an entirely different set of lineups compared to the direct fill?
21:33 If I have several contests and use the new SaberSim, is there a way that I can run builds, contest sims, set stack types, etc for each individual contest as opposed to all of them being done at the same time?
23:23 Can I get some advice on sorting metrics?
25:25 What will the condition be for running low-stake MME vs 20-max?
26:52 Auto-Fill vs Direct-Fill

30:48 How can I effectively incorporate my personal perspective into game/field simulations?
34:42 In the Autofill Rank, it lists ROI by default. Should we be changing that to rank by the specific entry?
