- 1:04Speaker 2: price drop here and then a no cut event. How
- 1:06Speaker 2: it affects that. We're going to talk about callin Morikawa,

- 1:36Speaker 2: you in? My man?
- 1:37Speaker 3: Is?
- 1:37Speaker 2: I will say no show next week for the Dessert Classics,
- 1:41Speaker 2: So I'm away family vacation. I always plan my vacations
- 1:43Speaker 2: around the worst golf event of the season in my opinion,
- 1:46Speaker 2: at least from my fantasy perspective and playing these things.
- 1:48Speaker 2: So I'm excited to get away with the family. But Alex,
- 1:50Speaker 2: I'll bring you in man. One of Master's we just
- 1:52Speaker 2: have my friend and excited to talk about RBC heritage
- 1:55Speaker 2: with you as well.
- 1:56Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it wasn't It wasn't last year's Masters,
- 1:58Speaker 3: but what could have been like lst year's Masters?
- 2:00Speaker 2: It was?
- 2:01Speaker 3: It was another really fun one. I think there there
- 2:03Speaker 3: are some interesting conversations. I don't know if you want
- 2:04Speaker 3: to have them here on this show, but like just
- 2:06Speaker 3: about how Augusta kind of threw us all a curveball
- 2:11Speaker 3: and it made the made the course a lot softer
- 2:13Speaker 3: than we expected.
- 2:14Speaker 2: And man, why wasn't that talked about more? By the way,
- 2:18Speaker 2: and I want to have all kinds of conversations and
- 2:20Speaker 2: that was pretty interesting. And what's funny is Scotty didn't
- 2:23Speaker 2: say nothing until he did when he lost by one broke,
- 2:25Speaker 2: and then he was like, I can't. The best is
- 2:27Speaker 2: when you know a guy like can't not say something.
- 2:30Speaker 2: He's so humble, but he he had to say it.
- 2:33Speaker 2: He's like, I just want to let you know this
- 2:34Speaker 2: is what happened. And he's like, okay, he told us.
- 2:36Speaker 4: Yeah, And and that to me, like.
- 2:40Speaker 3: I've seen I've seen kind of mixed reviews about where
- 2:43Speaker 3: you know, I've seen people taking the stance of defending
- 2:46Speaker 3: Augusta and pointing to the fact like one very cool thing,
- 2:49Speaker 3: and I will admit that it's very cool. Is like
- 2:51Speaker 3: the the winning score Augusta is usually in this like
- 2:56Speaker 3: ten to twelve under range. They they clearly have this
- 2:59Speaker 3: idea of like what is the optimal range that's going
- 3:03Speaker 3: to produce the most drama where you have guys who
- 3:06Speaker 3: are playing well and making a fair amount of birdies
- 3:08Speaker 3: and you know, shooting really good scores, but then you
- 3:11Speaker 3: also have it difficult enough that you're still seeing plenty
- 3:13Speaker 3: of bogies around the golf course, You're still seeing doubles
- 3:16Speaker 3: and triples, and in how Tongu's case tends, so you know,
- 3:19Speaker 3: they have this like really nice balance in that regard.
- 3:23Speaker 4: The problem is you can't have it both ways.
- 3:27Speaker 3: You can't have that be what you're going for and
- 3:32Speaker 3: trying to get that score and also letting the media
- 3:34Speaker 3: hype up your event all a week long by talking
- 3:38Speaker 3: about how firm and fast and difficult the course is
- 3:41Speaker 3: going to get and then letting that happen to the
- 3:43Speaker 3: Thursday afternoon wave and then watering the hell out of
- 3:46Speaker 3: the golf course. Either you're controlling the conditions throughout the week,
- 3:51Speaker 3: maintaining the integrity of the course so that it's it's
- 3:55Speaker 3: playing the same for everybody, or you're letting mother and
- 3:58Speaker 3: nature just like run its core and letting whatever happens happens,
- 4:02Speaker 3: and then if the course like really does get out
- 4:04Speaker 3: of control, like maybe maybe they looked at Thursday, they said, Okay,
- 4:07Speaker 3: we don't want it. We don't want it to get
- 4:09Speaker 3: any more difficult than it got Thursday afternoon, because any
- 4:12Speaker 3: more difficult would be borderline unfair. Okay, then water the
- 4:16Speaker 3: course a little bit overnight so you get a repeat
- 4:19Speaker 3: of the conditions the next day, and nothing more not
- 4:21Speaker 3: make it significantly easier and more receptive for all three
- 4:25Speaker 3: days moving on. I just thought that was really like
- 4:28Speaker 3: uncharacteristically non golf purist, if you will, of Augusta usually
- 4:34Speaker 3: usually like it's the right, it's the it's the mecca
- 4:37Speaker 3: of golf. It's it's where everything about golf is in
- 4:42Speaker 3: its purest form, and in that way, like they totally
- 4:45Speaker 3: smashed that and then you know it, just as Scottie said, Like,
- 4:50Speaker 3: I think Scotty did a good job of not talking
- 4:53Speaker 3: before that, because the player in him is just saying, like,
- 4:55Speaker 3: I'm not making any excuses for myself. I all I
- 4:58Speaker 3: can do is control what I can and go play.
- 5:00Speaker 3: But un once the tournament's over, he doesn't need that
- 5:02Speaker 3: mindset anymore. Now he can just like say what he's
- 5:04Speaker 3: actually been feeling all week, which is I got screwed
- 5:07Speaker 3: on Thursday and everybody knows.
- 5:09Speaker 2: Yeah. And by the way too, Rory tried to give
- 5:12Speaker 2: him a shot at a playoff there on eighteen that
- 5:13Speaker 2: shot when they brought the video out yesterday, because it
- 5:15Speaker 2: was tough on the CBS coverage to kind of figure
- 5:17Speaker 2: that out to just speaking of that of Rory down
- 5:19Speaker 2: the stretch, that was pretty pretty crazy as well. I mean,
- 5:22Speaker 2: I gotta the chat real quick, I said for fantasy purposes.
- 5:25Speaker 2: By the way, Andy, going to any PG event is awesome.
- 5:28Speaker 2: I've been to plenty of them, and I think they're
- 5:29Speaker 2: all incredible. I would love to be there, you know,
- 5:31Speaker 2: I'm a fan of New Orleans. I think that's a
- 5:32Speaker 2: good spot to be. I'm saying it's really nothing to
- 5:34Speaker 2: do with that. It's just not great. There's not a
- 5:36Speaker 2: lot of angles or edges to it from fantasy. Like
- 5:39Speaker 2: when it first came out, there was like that you
- 5:40Speaker 2: could play like different price points and remember like people
- 5:42Speaker 2: are like you play the cheaper guy because this that
- 5:45Speaker 2: was like an edge, and then eventually just made them
- 5:46Speaker 2: all the same price and there's no real angle of opportunity.
- 5:50Speaker 2: We're just betting and gambling to get some action down.
- 5:52Speaker 2: So I'm all for that, and if I was there,
- 5:54Speaker 2: it'd be phenomenal. But I'll be in Dominican Republic, so
- 5:56Speaker 2: I'll be in pretty good weather myself and enjoying it
- 5:59Speaker 2: with some family time. But yeah, agree with you on
- 6:01Speaker 2: being at those events. What else on the Masters, I
- 6:04Speaker 2: guess one of the things is almost like a WWE
- 6:06Speaker 2: event if they like planned it, Like it's like gonna
- 6:09Speaker 2: go into the room tonight and decide, like Thursday night,
- 6:11Speaker 2: we probably don't need to do this, but let's do it.
- 6:13Speaker 2: Let's tighten this Oh, Rory's up by six now, all right,
- 6:16Speaker 2: we gotta tighten this shit up quick and give them
- 6:18Speaker 2: an opportunity to come back on a different route. Like
- 6:20Speaker 2: I'm not saying they do that because it's not true,
- 6:22Speaker 2: but noting it, it's.
- 6:23Speaker 3: Like it almost seemed to me, it almost seemed to
- 6:27Speaker 3: me like they were trying to let Rory go top
- 6:31Speaker 3: last year by not just defending his title, but by
- 6:33Speaker 3: defending his title and setting a new scoring record so
- 6:36Speaker 3: that a live guy no longer holds the scoring record,
- 6:39Speaker 3: even though most people view it with an aster since
- 6:41Speaker 3: DJ's twenty under I think was twenty came in the
- 6:44Speaker 3: November Masters, but but yeah, it was. It was just weird,
- 6:48Speaker 3: and I think like it's probably unlikely that they that
- 6:53Speaker 3: they did this with the specific goal in mind of
- 6:55Speaker 3: getting Rory another win. But they also need to have
- 6:59Speaker 3: like the self awareness to realize that's what everyone's gonna think.
- 7:02Speaker 3: When we wandered the ship out of this golf course
- 7:05Speaker 3: and all of a sudden the conditions are so much
- 7:06Speaker 3: easier than they were yesterday.
- 7:08Speaker 4: It was, like I said, it was just really odd.
- 7:10Speaker 4: It was.
- 7:11Speaker 3: It was a curveball, and I both from a fan perspective,
- 7:16Speaker 3: I really didn't like it because I like, it's so
- 7:18Speaker 3: compelling to see how difficult the course can get. And
- 7:21Speaker 3: I think an important point there is if if Augusta
- 7:26Speaker 3: never does anything to try and control the golf course,
- 7:29Speaker 3: you're going to get plenty of years where the course
- 7:32Speaker 3: is soft and receptive and you're getting those, you know,
- 7:35Speaker 3: really scorable conditions, but you're you're going to get very
- 7:40Speaker 3: few opportunities to make the course as firm and fast
- 7:43Speaker 3: as it could have been this week. And I think
- 7:45Speaker 3: you got to take that opportunity when you get it.
- 7:47Speaker 3: So that was really concerning. And then from a from
- 7:50Speaker 3: a betting standpoint, like I lost a bunch of money
- 7:52Speaker 3: on underdog this week because I kept making bets that said,
- 7:57Speaker 3: I think it's gonna be a little bit tougher tomorrow.
- 7:59Speaker 4: I don't think we're going to see what we saw yesterday.
- 8:01Speaker 3: And they just kept doing it and that was really
- 8:04Speaker 3: really annoying on my wallet as well.
- 8:06Speaker 2: Last quick note, shout at you on the Henley call.
- 8:08Speaker 2: By the way, getting all the way up the board
- 8:10Speaker 2: left to definitely left a couple out there down the street.
- 8:12Speaker 2: I know there's variant who makes some miss some et cetera.
- 8:14Speaker 2: But he really did his job trying to get up
- 8:16Speaker 2: there too. But the other thing, man, I you know
- 8:18Speaker 2: last week, Rory's a different golfer. Now, like there's no
- 8:21Speaker 2: way he blows this, and in the end he didn't.
- 8:24Speaker 2: I get it, But like it was not it was
- 8:26Speaker 2: over very quickly on Saturday, that narrative of like there's
- 8:29Speaker 2: no way this is gonna be a runaway, the Vince
- 8:31Speaker 2: Carter Jiff was out, the up ten ten plus blowout
- 8:35Speaker 2: is incoming, like all this it was gone like that,
- 8:37Speaker 2: like faster than you can imagine. Yes, an awesome resiliency
- 8:40Speaker 2: to bounce back and whatnot, But I'm just saying it's
- 8:42Speaker 2: like when people are thinking a golf tournament is over,
- 8:44Speaker 2: especially at that course, it's the literal saying. For years now,
- 8:49Speaker 2: before I'm born has been like this tournament doesn't start
- 8:52Speaker 2: till the back nine on Sunday. It's like that here
- 8:54Speaker 2: it was again, look at these guys going low, like
- 8:56Speaker 2: Hatton's getting into the mix, Scheffler's coming back, Henley's rolling,
- 8:59Speaker 2: and all those guys were in the mix where Rory
- 9:01Speaker 2: wasn't doing too much. So just to keep that in mind,
- 9:04Speaker 2: I mean, Cam Young, it was his for the taking
- 9:05Speaker 2: as well to actually beat Rory for the Rory's gonna
- 9:08Speaker 2: blow this thing out and win by a million type
- 9:09Speaker 2: thing too. So yeah, it's always a fun golf tournament.
- 9:12Speaker 2: I had a great week. I will say, shut up
- 9:13Speaker 2: to everybody. I gotta just give some supports. I'm only
- 9:15Speaker 2: doing one show a week now, so I'll say I
- 9:17Speaker 2: do appreciate everybody that reached out. Had the nice Milliemaker
- 9:20Speaker 2: sweat on Sunday up top there, it's like you never want.
- 9:25Speaker 2: Somebody asked me, is like, do you really think you're
- 9:26Speaker 2: gonna win?
- 9:27Speaker 3: No?
- 9:27Speaker 2: Absolutely, like I had like maybe a three percent I
- 9:29Speaker 2: think cut sweat set of four percent. I probably had
- 9:31Speaker 2: half that. It's like, it's it's not really about that,
- 9:33Speaker 2: it's if you're fortunate enough and I'm very grateful for
- 9:36Speaker 2: all the people that support and look out for me.
- 9:38Speaker 2: And you'll want to say, like, do this and they're
- 9:39Speaker 2: cheering for me, that that means a lot. But like
- 9:41Speaker 2: when people are messaging go over and over, it's actually
- 9:43Speaker 2: better to just embrace it and say, hey, here's where
- 9:46Speaker 2: I'm at. Let's hope for a day. All we can
- 9:48Speaker 2: do is observe. That's my message to you guys on
- 9:50Speaker 2: anything like we get negative thoughts around, like oh that
- 9:53Speaker 2: you can only really get a negative thought if you
- 9:56Speaker 2: were already putting the money in your bank account. You
- 9:58Speaker 2: cannot put the money in your bank account until it
- 10:00Speaker 2: actually closes and the tournament ends, So all you can
- 10:03Speaker 2: do is watch the golf observe. Your guys could suck
- 10:07Speaker 2: early and bounce back late when it matters. Your guys
- 10:09Speaker 2: could start fast and then they suck at the end
- 10:11Speaker 2: when you need it, when you think you're gonna get
- 10:13Speaker 2: it again and you're even closer to it, but it's
- 10:15Speaker 2: never yours until the tournament's over. And what a wild
- 10:18Speaker 2: turn of event. Shout out by the way to Nelson
- 10:20Speaker 2: over at cut Sweat speaking of that getting the job
- 10:21Speaker 2: done and shipping the Millie maker. His was funny too.
- 10:24Speaker 2: He posted like day one he I think it was
- 10:26Speaker 2: day two he was crushing it. Day three he's like,
- 10:28Speaker 2: there goes that equity. Day four bounces back and wins it.
- 10:31Speaker 2: So it's like that anything can happen. But I'll tell you, Alex,
- 10:34Speaker 2: my sweat because people asked me about this is only
- 10:36Speaker 2: form to really bring it out. So I was winning
- 10:38Speaker 2: the two hundred and fifty dollars buy in tournament on
- 10:41Speaker 2: fan duel. After three rounds two hundred grand, I was
- 10:45Speaker 2: up twenty points. By the way, spoiler alert, it finished
- 10:47Speaker 2: like forty six or sixty fourth or something. One of
- 10:49Speaker 2: those two numbers is bad. Did you things? What's that?
- 10:53Speaker 4: Did you have Lowry?
- 10:55Speaker 1: No?
- 10:55Speaker 2: But I had Day and I had who's the other?
- 10:58Speaker 2: It was Day and somebody else that hurt me. And
- 11:00Speaker 2: then like the other guys just didn't do enough. It
- 11:02Speaker 2: had Rory Young, Day Nap someone and someone I can't
- 11:06Speaker 2: remember who the other two were. But anyway, it wasn't Henley,
- 11:09Speaker 2: it wasn't Hatt, and it wasn't any of those guys
- 11:10Speaker 2: climbing up the board, wrote Reez wrote Rose. Not all
- 11:13Speaker 2: of them did good, but it wasn't Rose all those
- 11:15Speaker 2: guys weren't in there, so that was kind of what
- 11:16Speaker 2: I was fading. And then on the DraftKings line up,
- 11:19Speaker 2: it had four out of the sixth the same and
- 11:22Speaker 2: Kiddy Yama was what I needed early and he had
- 11:24Speaker 2: opportunities to just burn them all. So I was like,
- 11:25Speaker 2: it's already not looking good. But then I still had
- 11:28Speaker 2: Burns and Henley and Nap and guys that were scoring
- 11:31Speaker 2: a little bit with Young and Rory, so I was like,
- 11:32Speaker 2: oh man, maybe this can still do damage. It did not.
- 11:36Speaker 2: You're never feeling good about the he But then the
- 11:38Speaker 2: craziest thing of all is Round four Showdown with two
- 11:41Speaker 2: hundred k up top. It's I've got a line up
- 11:44Speaker 2: with Scheffler and Hatton and it had McNeely, McCarty, like Keegan,
- 11:49Speaker 2: all the guys that crushed in the morning.
- 11:50Speaker 4: And they went they went nuts, He went nuts.
- 11:52Speaker 2: I had like one hundred and forty points just from
- 11:53Speaker 2: those three or something. So anyway, long story short, it's
- 11:56Speaker 2: like my daughter who's seven, has no clue about like
- 11:59Speaker 2: sweating it for real, like for what the money is?
- 12:01Speaker 2: I keep her out of that side of it, but
- 12:03Speaker 2: like she's like, weren't we just cheering for Rory as
- 12:05Speaker 2: I'm going nuts for Scotty, and I'm like, we are now, honey,
- 12:08Speaker 2: we're now cheering for Scotty Scheffler. She's like, all right,
- 12:11Speaker 2: go Scotty. Then she's a true team player. But I
- 12:13Speaker 2: was like, man, we got to get this job done.
- 12:15Speaker 2: And Rose made a very crazy bogie on seventeen from
- 12:20Speaker 2: like a two foot three foot miss and I was like,
- 12:22Speaker 2: oh my god. It bumped me in the first for
- 12:23Speaker 2: two hundred grand. The Rory and Young lineups were behind me.
- 12:27Speaker 2: It was a ship a nation member. Shut up the light.
- 12:29Speaker 2: You ended up getting it at the end for two
- 12:31Speaker 2: hundred K. Rose needed to bogie or worse on eighteen
- 12:34Speaker 2: and he made par He chipped it. He had a
- 12:36Speaker 2: green side, chipped it up and tapped it in and
- 12:39Speaker 2: that moved us back because he got the points back
- 12:41Speaker 2: from the par I lost by point six. But then
- 12:43Speaker 2: when I didn't realize when I got the second and
- 12:45Speaker 2: think like there was that ah, like I got this moment.
- 12:48Speaker 2: It's like, damn, there's actually one Rory lineup that is
- 12:51Speaker 2: close to me that if he makes a birdie on eighteen,
- 12:53Speaker 2: I know it's not likely, but what a shift you
- 12:56Speaker 2: up one hundred K extra to two hundred down one
- 12:59Speaker 2: hundred K to one hundred K, and then it's like
- 13:02Speaker 2: the sixty k drop to forty K. If Rory makes
- 13:05Speaker 2: the birdie he goes in the trees, I'm like, ah,
- 13:07Speaker 2: thank goodness. And then he hits that second shot and
- 13:09Speaker 2: I'm like, oh man, you gotta be kidding me here,
- 13:11Speaker 2: and and so like again, I don't think it was
- 13:13Speaker 2: gonna go win, but just if anything happens, it reminded
- 13:16Speaker 2: me like the year that him in Marikawa made the
- 13:18Speaker 2: bunker shots on eighteen. I was like, imagine that gets
- 13:20Speaker 2: you for like sixty K and there's no real way
- 13:22Speaker 2: to do anything about it, so fun sweat. Nonetheless, it was,
- 13:26Speaker 2: you know, just wildest ways to get to the six
- 13:28Speaker 2: figure plus that I didn't expect at all.
- 13:30Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, the first thing that comes to mind
- 13:32Speaker 3: for me is like the guy asking you, did you
- 13:35Speaker 3: really think you were gonna win? Like, I understand having
- 13:37Speaker 3: a four percent chance or anything close to that. To
- 13:40Speaker 3: win a million dollars in the last day, that's orders
- 13:42Speaker 3: and orders of magnitude above where you were at the
- 13:44Speaker 3: start of the week. That's absolutely worth getting it.
- 13:46Speaker 2: Most people, it's like one to twenty shot here that
- 13:49Speaker 2: we're going up to to have a chance to win
- 13:50Speaker 2: a million dollars, Like do you expect it? No, and
- 13:53Speaker 2: you never should. But it is crazy when people are
- 13:55Speaker 2: like you really posted that, or the people by the
- 13:57Speaker 2: way that are like your your business partner who he
- 14:00Speaker 2: jinksed you because he congratulated you and posted the screenshot.
- 14:03Speaker 2: Is like if you you think one of my best
- 14:05Speaker 2: friends and business partners don't know me well enough to
- 14:07Speaker 2: know I literally don't give a shit about a jinx
- 14:10Speaker 2: a mush enough that we have no control over what
- 14:12Speaker 2: those golfers do. All we can do is build good
- 14:15Speaker 2: You sound process like we're about to talk about on
- 14:17Speaker 2: this show for this week upcoming. But I think that's
- 14:19Speaker 2: important to note, is this, you know, a life lesson
- 14:21Speaker 2: too is just beca I always tell people, like the
- 14:23Speaker 2: motivating factors and like the fact that you put yourself
- 14:25Speaker 2: in those positions. That's all you can do. Our job
- 14:28Speaker 2: is done Thursday morning at Locke. We have no control
- 14:30Speaker 2: after that. So that's just my thoughts.
- 14:32Speaker 3: A lot of the time, when when you and I
- 14:34Speaker 3: have like a topic of mine to talk about, like
- 14:36Speaker 3: we did satellites the one time for example, we've talked beforehand.
- 14:41Speaker 3: I don't want to totally just put you on the
- 14:42Speaker 3: spot here, but I think we actually just like organically
- 14:45Speaker 3: came across a really good topic to talk through strategy
- 14:48Speaker 3: wise that I know I have personally struggled with at times.
- 14:51Speaker 3: I know, basically like every subscriber of mine who has
- 14:54Speaker 3: ever had a sweat has considered or alluded to this
- 14:58Speaker 3: concept for around four. Did you let your main slate
- 15:05Speaker 3: sweats affect your round four showdown build at all? In
- 15:09Speaker 3: the sense that, like, let's say you needed Cam and Rory.
- 15:13Speaker 3: Are you then in showdown saying okay, well I might
- 15:15Speaker 3: as well, you know, hedge, where if one of those
- 15:18Speaker 3: guys fails, now I'll at least, you know, have the
- 15:21Speaker 3: advantage in showdown if I if I fade them. Things
- 15:24Speaker 3: of that nature. So, like, I don't want to use
- 15:26Speaker 3: the word hedge because it's so difficult to quote unquote
- 15:29Speaker 3: hedge a DFS line up, because you need so many
- 15:31Speaker 3: things to go right, and you don't just need like
- 15:33Speaker 3: your lineup to do well to make up for it
- 15:35Speaker 3: in round four.
- 15:36Speaker 4: You need to do extremely well.
- 15:37Speaker 3: So even if you get like one thing really really right,
- 15:39Speaker 3: you still need everyone else to get there, But did
- 15:42Speaker 3: your sweats affect your.
- 15:43Speaker 4: Round four lineup in any way?
- 15:45Speaker 2: So I've talked about this a ton in the past,
- 15:47Speaker 2: and I think, actually it's a really good topic because
- 15:49Speaker 2: round four, I also think is at least slightly different
- 15:52Speaker 2: than the other stuff because obviously things are percolating. Now.
- 15:54Speaker 2: If you are doing what you're calling and I get
- 15:57Speaker 2: what you're saying one hundred perconds, people called it a hedge.
- 15:58Speaker 2: It's like, that's what I'm trying to say to be
- 16:00Speaker 2: for years now is like I think it's terrible move
- 16:03Speaker 2: in like round two, if you truly have an advantage
- 16:05Speaker 2: and you think that's the advantage. Like what people do
- 16:07Speaker 2: is they go, Okay, I got Scotti Scheffler fifty percent
- 16:09Speaker 2: in main slate, so I'll fade him in round two
- 16:13Speaker 2: because if Scotty goes off in round two, that means
- 16:15Speaker 2: my classic lineups are good. Well does it? You have
- 16:17Speaker 2: five more golfers in those lineups. So not only are
- 16:19Speaker 2: you dead in showdown because he went off and you
- 16:21Speaker 2: faded him, but you all your Scotty lineups, not all
- 16:24Speaker 2: of them, but just saying it could happen, they might
- 16:26Speaker 2: all be five or six. Now, so you just lost
- 16:28Speaker 2: money twice, you're dead going into the weekend, and you
- 16:30Speaker 2: made a bad decision. So you might take that mentality
- 16:33Speaker 2: and structure into round three and continue playing bad money
- 16:36Speaker 2: or just not putting the effort in. I think the
- 16:39Speaker 2: difference in round four and I didn't like fully hedgerin.
- 16:42Speaker 2: I had a ton of cam Young in both places.
- 16:44Speaker 2: I had rory versions of the lineups I like. The
- 16:47Speaker 2: one spot though that I did ignore was Kittyama because
- 16:51Speaker 2: it was like there was already other value plays down there.
- 16:53Speaker 2: That's how I got to Keegan more often. That's the
- 16:55Speaker 2: other things like that Nick Taylor who didn't fully come through,
- 16:57Speaker 2: But it was like Kittiyama would have been a game
- 16:59Speaker 2: change for that lineup, where I then kind of again
- 17:03Speaker 2: doesn't mean it would have went right, but it's like, also,
- 17:05Speaker 2: is Kiddyama really gonna crush in round four? He's way
- 17:08Speaker 2: down the board. It's not like he's needed or something
- 17:10Speaker 2: like that. So it's like, if I could or did
- 17:12Speaker 2: land near that, I was definitely not going to Kidiyama.
- 17:15Speaker 2: But all the other lineups were built accordingly with the
- 17:17Speaker 2: idea of like certain situation. Now, the Scotty lineup that
- 17:20Speaker 2: happened to come together was predicated on like pure structure,
- 17:24Speaker 2: like roster construction of what my thought process was for
- 17:27Speaker 2: Sunday is it's hard to win a Master's. It might
- 17:30Speaker 2: finally bake out. They kind of want, you know, if
- 17:33Speaker 2: they want this thing to come down to the end.
- 17:34Speaker 2: It's like it's it's Cam Young and it's Rory, Like
- 17:36Speaker 2: you're both very capable having great weeks, but it might
- 17:38Speaker 2: not come through. Why not just take the best golfer
- 17:41Speaker 2: in the world, Scotty Scheffler, whether you believe he is
- 17:43Speaker 2: not or has been lately or not, fine, but whatever,
- 17:45Speaker 2: play him and play ball strikers. If you look at
- 17:49Speaker 2: the Master's board on Sunday, it's like Moricau, Hatton, Keegan, Bradley, Henley,
- 17:54Speaker 2: It's like all the best because they're just firing at
- 17:56Speaker 2: the pins. A guy like Hatton, who was in that lineup,
- 17:59Speaker 2: It's like, is he gonna blow up a lot of
- 18:01Speaker 2: the time, Yes, but if he doesn't, it can look
- 18:04Speaker 2: like that and that's what you're playing for. So that
- 18:06Speaker 2: one was built around that, and I structured my lineups
- 18:09Speaker 2: really around that thought. But I do build in like
- 18:13Speaker 2: different versions as well. And again they're all with like
- 18:16Speaker 2: heavy thought process that goes into them. But it's like, okay,
- 18:18Speaker 2: if if more people have Read and Rose together and
- 18:21Speaker 2: I don't have them in either of my big lineups,
- 18:24Speaker 2: I'm definitely gonna see if there's some lineups that I
- 18:26Speaker 2: like that work with those two, and then close it
- 18:28Speaker 2: out with whoever I got or need. Whatever. My thoughts
- 18:31Speaker 2: are for Sunday, though, are my very prevalent thoughts into
- 18:34Speaker 2: my roster construction. And I think when people try and
- 18:37Speaker 2: get cute, even if they don't mean to, to your
- 18:39Speaker 2: point of like even calling it a hedge, and that's
- 18:41Speaker 2: why you were careful to say it that way, because
- 18:43Speaker 2: you can't really hedge that you could hedge stuff late.
- 18:46Speaker 2: I've been in a spot where it's like you have
- 18:48Speaker 2: Nick what was the year? I forget? It was like
- 18:50Speaker 2: Nick Taylor and Tommy Fleetwood in a playoff and Nick
- 18:53Speaker 2: Taylor's the underdog and it's like for fifty thousand dollars
- 18:57Speaker 2: or whatever, and I put like, I think it was
- 18:58Speaker 2: like five grand down for the flip, just to get
- 19:00Speaker 2: that extra little bit because it's like forty or ten.
- 19:02Speaker 2: I'm like, okay, I'll do that, But that's like a
- 19:05Speaker 2: situation where it's just like do I need to know?
- 19:07Speaker 2: It just makes you feel a little bit better and
- 19:09Speaker 2: like the what ifs and all that. But that's where
- 19:11Speaker 2: you can truly hedge because they're in a playoff and
- 19:13Speaker 2: you know what, that's your lineup exactly. In this stuff,
- 19:16Speaker 2: when people try and do it, I don't see any
- 19:17Speaker 2: opportunity beyond like some edge stuff, not not really the
- 19:21Speaker 2: old like meaning like around the like it's very rough edge.
- 19:24Speaker 2: It's like gray area, like you're not really able to
- 19:27Speaker 2: hedge it that much. In my opinion, with needing everything
- 19:29Speaker 2: to go your way.
- 19:30Speaker 3: I liked the points you made about Read and Rose,
- 19:33Speaker 3: where like you're looking for combinations that you don't have
- 19:35Speaker 3: that maybe you can you can get access to that
- 19:37Speaker 3: would help you there. And the other thing I think
- 19:40Speaker 3: you kind of alluded to that that I have kind
- 19:43Speaker 3: of settled on as one of my main thoughts in
- 19:45Speaker 3: this kind of question if you will, which is if
- 19:49Speaker 3: I have a guy who's a low owned separator in
- 19:51Speaker 3: my main slate lineup and is chalky in the in showdown,
- 19:56Speaker 3: like that's a guy that I definitely want to avoid
- 19:59Speaker 3: because he's going to be so much more beneficial if
- 20:02Speaker 3: he plays well in my main Slate lineup, then he
- 20:04Speaker 3: would be in Showdown. So I like, there's just no
- 20:07Speaker 3: reason for me to go double down in Showdown when
- 20:10Speaker 3: he's literally going to do less for me if he
- 20:12Speaker 3: plays well, And then the flip side is also true,
- 20:15Speaker 3: like if he plays poorly, yes, he obviously hurts my
- 20:20Speaker 3: main Slight lineup, but then because he's Chalky and Showdown,
- 20:23Speaker 3: he actually really helps me that he played poorly there,
- 20:25Speaker 3: so it just kind of works in both directions that
- 20:29Speaker 3: there you don't want to overlap, and then the reverse
- 20:31Speaker 3: is also true, like let's say you know, I have
- 20:33Speaker 3: a thirty percent you know, Xander Schoffley in mainslat or something,
- 20:38Speaker 3: but now he's the contrarian pivot to Rory and Cam
- 20:41Speaker 3: Young on Showdown. That's the kind of guy that Okay,
- 20:44Speaker 3: now I will go play him because if he does
- 20:46Speaker 3: play well, yeah, he's helping my main Slight lineup potentially
- 20:49Speaker 3: catch up to the Cam or the Rory lineups. But
- 20:52Speaker 3: also he would then be an actual separator in Showdown.
- 20:55Speaker 3: So that's when I'm more likely to kind of double
- 20:57Speaker 3: down on a player. And so I think that's probably
- 21:00Speaker 3: the best way to think get through. It's it's less
- 21:02Speaker 3: about who you have and what you need, and it's
- 21:04Speaker 3: more about if they play well, if they play poorly,
- 21:08Speaker 3: how do they affect the two different lineups given the
- 21:11Speaker 3: different ownerships across the contests.
- 21:13Speaker 2: I love all that we said. I'm glad we talked
- 21:14Speaker 2: through that too. I know, like a lot of people
- 21:16Speaker 2: like I'll get to the RBC heritage and the comments coming,
- 21:18Speaker 2: I don't really care, first of all. Second, well, it's
- 21:20Speaker 2: like the other thing is like it's such an important game.
- 21:23Speaker 2: I know so many people again being in the Ship
- 21:25Speaker 2: Nation discord, I know you're in your own over at FTN.
- 21:27Speaker 2: The same thing. It's like when people don't have a
- 21:30Speaker 2: good lineup over the weekend, whether they play one lineup
- 21:32Speaker 2: or one hundred and fifty, if they really have nothing
- 21:34Speaker 2: on the go, they are very interested in getting involved
- 21:36Speaker 2: in round four. But it's a place people struggle a
- 21:39Speaker 2: lot because of the position placement points, because of like
- 21:42Speaker 2: how many guys are too many up the board and
- 21:44Speaker 2: all those different things. So I'm glad we at least
- 21:46Speaker 2: chat it through it a little bit more. I know
- 21:47Speaker 2: you cover more in your discord. I've got more over
- 21:50Speaker 2: at Ship Nation with the mastermind project things like that.
- 21:52Speaker 2: But if yeah, I like that topic, let's try and
- 21:54Speaker 2: get to RBC in the next eight to ten minutes.
- 21:57Speaker 2: We do have to talk about Scotty and more cal
- 21:58Speaker 2: I want to hit a couple questions quick and let's
- 22:01Speaker 2: just rapid fire them. This is for you. I'll give
- 22:04Speaker 2: my two cents on it first of all. But I mean, one,
- 22:06Speaker 2: unless you're building like cash game lineups these days, the
- 22:09Speaker 2: ownership is typically pretty spread out. So even if you
- 22:11Speaker 2: have like a forty thirty ownership in it's like it's rare.
- 22:14Speaker 2: But let's you had a forty and a thirty percent guy,
- 22:16Speaker 2: you're seventy. It's gonna be mostly like fifteen percenters after that.
- 22:20Speaker 2: For another set, I mean, unless you're building that type
- 22:22Speaker 2: of lineup, you're in rough shape. But otherwise you're mostly
- 22:25Speaker 2: gonna be at an under one hundred. But I don't
- 22:26Speaker 2: like to do this. I just build with the optimizer
- 22:29Speaker 2: and the one I'm using will actually account for this
- 22:31Speaker 2: with sabersim, but just noting it. I don't want to
- 22:34Speaker 2: say like a way where I can rule myself out
- 22:37Speaker 2: personally where it's like it has to be eighty, because
- 22:39Speaker 2: what if it's like a thirty twenty five and then
- 22:42Speaker 2: a bunch of guys that are like eight percent or
- 22:44Speaker 2: nine percent of something that are needed. And it's like
- 22:46Speaker 2: you just you can get there in different ways. I
- 22:47Speaker 2: like to focus on the roster construction and then separators
- 22:50Speaker 2: within the lineup. I think you've talked about it in
- 22:52Speaker 2: the past, but if you want to add to that one.
- 22:54Speaker 3: Yeah, I think using total ownership summing ownership, I think
- 22:57Speaker 3: is a really really, really bad way to do things.
- 23:00Speaker 3: And it made sense, like you know, five years ago
- 23:02Speaker 3: when we were just kind of first understanding the concept
- 23:04Speaker 3: of ownership and things of that nature on a on
- 23:07Speaker 3: a like a full industry wide level, but it does
- 23:10Speaker 3: a really bad job of creating like the balance of
- 23:16Speaker 3: low owned separators and high probability plays that we're always
- 23:19Speaker 3: striving for. You might luck into it by finding a
- 23:22Speaker 3: range like that where okay, you have some chalk and
- 23:25Speaker 3: you have some separators, but you also can end up
- 23:27Speaker 3: building lineups where like everyone in the lineup is I
- 23:29Speaker 3: don't know, fifteen percent owned or something like that, and
- 23:32Speaker 3: now you don't have the really high probability plays or
- 23:35Speaker 3: the low owned separators. And so it's more about just
- 23:38Speaker 3: making sure your lineup has both. And just like the
- 23:41Speaker 3: optimizer you use, we, our optimizer at FtM Fantasy does
- 23:45Speaker 3: the same thing like we. There are actually bracketed ownership
- 23:47Speaker 3: rules where you can set it where it's like I
- 23:49Speaker 3: want X amount of guys under five percent or x
- 23:52Speaker 3: amount under ten percent, and you know, no more than
- 23:55Speaker 3: why amount over fifteen percent or eighteen percent, whatever the
- 23:58Speaker 3: whatever the numbers that they that you choose are. And
- 24:00Speaker 3: so it's much better to do it that way. And
- 24:03Speaker 3: I like when I do, with the rare times that
- 24:06Speaker 3: I actually do use an optimizer and play MME, I
- 24:10Speaker 3: make the total ownership gap as wide as possible because
- 24:12Speaker 3: I don't want that influencing anything at all.
- 24:14Speaker 2: And you did say it best also there that the
- 24:16Speaker 2: old way when people did this, what was actually happening
- 24:20Speaker 2: is the current standpoint just naturally like they didn't. They
- 24:23Speaker 2: were looking at it as like, oh, I got a
- 24:24Speaker 2: low total ownership, But what the low total ownership did
- 24:26Speaker 2: was force separators and was forced different roster constructions to
- 24:29Speaker 2: make that work. And all of that already exists now.
- 24:32Speaker 2: And so I'll segue it with Evan's second question, which
- 24:34Speaker 2: is more up my range. You know, you're covering the
- 24:36Speaker 2: single entry. I'm covering the MME stuff, but he's talking
- 24:38Speaker 2: about handbuilds, so it's single entry mixed. But I think
- 24:41Speaker 2: the biggest myth in all of dfs is that, and
- 24:44Speaker 2: I've been on record for this forever, is that like
- 24:46Speaker 2: an optimizer is only for MME. It's it's almost a
- 24:50Speaker 2: necessity for emmy, like you would say at the end
- 24:52Speaker 2: here Evan, but for somebody that's handbuilding. Oftentimes, what happens
- 24:56Speaker 2: in my experience and working with people in the mentorship
- 24:58Speaker 2: program and all different things and playing lie lineups is
- 25:01Speaker 2: they say, like I got the you know, I can
- 25:02Speaker 2: get it down to a certain number of golfers, but
- 25:04Speaker 2: then I struggle to find the one lineup that I'm
- 25:07Speaker 2: looking for. That's legit what an like I talk about
- 25:09Speaker 2: all the time, The stone, the new stone two point
- 25:11Speaker 2: zero on this screen, the optimizer on the other. Here's
- 25:13Speaker 2: my player pool I'm gonna work with. Exclude all. Now
- 25:17Speaker 2: turn on the guys. I want now see. Okay, I
- 25:19Speaker 2: put the gas in the vehicle. Now let's see where
- 25:21Speaker 2: it's gonna take me. And I'm gonna try and drive
- 25:23Speaker 2: it myself. So I'm letting it build really good lineups.
- 25:26Speaker 2: And then I'm saying, okay, I called a virtual handbuild.
- 25:29Speaker 2: That one's gonna be this way. I didn't really want
- 25:31Speaker 2: like those that type of combination. I kind of like
- 25:33Speaker 2: that one. It skips the popular nine K range, it
- 25:36Speaker 2: still projects well, it sims well, or it's got good
- 25:39Speaker 2: saber score whatever it is you're using. And then you're like,
- 25:41Speaker 2: and I get the two value plays. I like the most.
- 25:44Speaker 2: That's gonna be a completely different construction. I'm gonna play
- 25:47Speaker 2: that one for sure. And if you're only settling on one,
- 25:49Speaker 2: that's your your ball game. But that will help you
- 25:51Speaker 2: find it and you might pick up on something you
- 25:54Speaker 2: didn't see. And also, I'll say just a quick add
- 25:57Speaker 2: on in other sports and it's the Golf Show. But like,
- 25:59Speaker 2: if you're playing baseball lineups right now, you're like, man,
- 26:02Speaker 2: I really wish I could get like Atlanta and Boston together.
- 26:06Speaker 2: That would be sweet. It's like, okay, well what does
- 26:08Speaker 2: that look like? Well, you can sit there and play
- 26:09Speaker 2: around with it by hand for half an hour and
- 26:12Speaker 2: it end up settling it. I know everybody's done this,
- 26:14Speaker 2: right they get down to their last two spots, like, well, shit,
- 26:16Speaker 2: I can't find it. Now I got to change my
- 26:18Speaker 2: picture to someone I don't want, or now I got
- 26:20Speaker 2: to take this stupid one off and just hope for
- 26:22Speaker 2: the best. The optimizer would have just had it for you.
- 26:24Speaker 2: It would have taken exactly what you wanted, giving you
- 26:27Speaker 2: the best projected versions, let you hand pick based on like,
- 26:30Speaker 2: Oh man, I see an al Twove one off, but
- 26:32Speaker 2: I see Alvarez one off. I wanted him. I didn't
- 26:36Speaker 2: even want al tuo Ve. All right, I'm gonna take
- 26:37Speaker 2: that one. It did it for you. It's what you wanted.
- 26:40Speaker 2: You still drove, You put the gas and you put
- 26:42Speaker 2: the directions in and then you let the vehicle drive you.
- 26:45Speaker 2: The optimizer the vehicle. So I really think that's important,
- 26:47Speaker 2: and not many people talk about that, but I think
- 26:50Speaker 2: that's something you should use it for. Any added thoughts from.
- 26:52Speaker 3: You, Yeah, I like your thoughts there on the optimizer.
- 26:54Speaker 3: So I'll just cover the SIMS part of this answer.
- 26:57Speaker 3: And I think sims are also really hell for single entries,
- 27:01Speaker 3: and to me, it's it's not about like I think
- 27:04Speaker 3: the worst way that you can possibly use contest sims
- 27:06Speaker 3: is trying to find the highest ROI and expected value
- 27:10Speaker 3: possible where The better way to do it is to
- 27:14Speaker 3: answer is to ask and answer questions that you have
- 27:17Speaker 3: about line of buildings. So like any any question that
- 27:20Speaker 3: you you know, if you're in my discord, any two
- 27:21Speaker 3: v two question that you take to me and say, hey,
- 27:24Speaker 3: do you like this two v two or that two
- 27:25Speaker 3: v two more that kind of thing. You can ask
- 27:27Speaker 3: the contest sims as well and see which one it
- 27:30Speaker 3: likes there and sometimes that that question can be like, oh,
- 27:34Speaker 3: you know, I already have four guys in my lineup
- 27:37Speaker 3: who are in the early wave. So even though I
- 27:40Speaker 3: like this two v two which is two guys in
- 27:42Speaker 3: the afternoon wave, more than this two v two that
- 27:46Speaker 3: has that turns it into a six to zero, is
- 27:49Speaker 3: it worth going to the the one that projects worse
- 27:52Speaker 3: because I potentially get the added correlation. That's a great
- 27:54Speaker 3: thing that the contest sims can help answer. Another one
- 27:57Speaker 3: is like, when I look at our projections this week,
- 27:59Speaker 3: we have we have cam Young and Russell Henley projected
- 28:02Speaker 3: very similarly, both in ownership and projection. Russell Henley has
- 28:06Speaker 3: the slightly higher projection. Cameron Young has the slightly higher
- 28:08Speaker 3: ceiling projection. Does my lineup does the rest of my
- 28:14Speaker 3: lineup mean that Henley's floor advantage is better for my
- 28:17Speaker 3: lineup or cam Yung's ceiling advantage better for my lineup.
- 28:21Speaker 3: That's something that the conciout sims can answer. So things
- 28:23Speaker 3: like that I think are far more useful with the
- 28:26Speaker 3: contest sims, and they are massively beneficial for single anturry.
- 28:29Speaker 4: Another like really good example would be, you.
- 28:31Speaker 3: Know, I'm looking here at you know, Ludwig Oberg is
- 28:36Speaker 3: slightly lower owned than Henley, but Henley projects a little
- 28:39Speaker 3: bit better across the board. Is the rest of my
- 28:42Speaker 3: Does the rest of my lineup make it worth that
- 28:44Speaker 3: little bit of potential separation that I get with Oberg?
- 28:47Speaker 3: Or do I just want the high probability play in
- 28:50Speaker 3: Russell Henley.
- 28:51Speaker 4: Things like that, I.
- 28:52Speaker 3: Think are are definitely overlooked because it's the same idea.
- 28:55Speaker 3: Like I think, so many people think of contest sims
- 28:57Speaker 3: as building a bunch of lineups looking at the ROI
- 29:00Speaker 3: and either choosing your favorite or taking the you know,
- 29:03Speaker 3: the best one hundred and fifty out of the five
- 29:05Speaker 3: hundred that you built, or anything like that. And to me,
- 29:08Speaker 3: the real value of contestants is asking and answering the
- 29:11Speaker 3: right questions and.
- 29:12Speaker 2: Especially I'll add one point just on the ROI point
- 29:14Speaker 2: you made, because that people did it all to office
- 29:16Speaker 2: issue when they only have one lineup. For example, in baseball,
- 29:19Speaker 2: the best ROI is going to be the five man
- 29:21Speaker 2: stack against the most popular pitcher, and then you get
- 29:24Speaker 2: the pitchers against the most popular stacks if it fits together,
- 29:28Speaker 2: and people like, oh, I better take that. It's like,
- 29:30Speaker 2: what is that really good? Over time? Yes, because it's
- 29:32Speaker 2: a high turn of events. If just these two things
- 29:35Speaker 2: don't go right and really go the other way, you
- 29:37Speaker 2: probably win all the You put yourself in that upper
- 29:39Speaker 2: echelon immediately to have a chance to win it all.
- 29:42Speaker 2: But this might take a thousand slit. This is over
- 29:44Speaker 2: ten thousand simulations or something. There's no way to know
- 29:47Speaker 2: that's going to happen today, and so you can take
- 29:49Speaker 2: it if you want. But it's usually why it's bad
- 29:51Speaker 2: to just pick the highest ROI lineup and run.
- 29:53Speaker 3: Well. Not only that, but there are enough people doing
- 29:55Speaker 3: that that that's that's that the actual like the best
- 30:00Speaker 3: lineups that the sims are pointing to are affecting ownership
- 30:03Speaker 3: and therefore making them not the best lineups and so
- 30:06Speaker 3: h and that's especially true when when you're using a
- 30:09Speaker 3: SIMS product that isn't you know, top notching ownership projections
- 30:12Speaker 3: and therefore not able to really accurately build the field's lineups.
- 30:16Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think sites this is possible. We could
- 30:18Speaker 2: definitely see a little bit of a lull this week,
- 30:20Speaker 2: but that usually just means condensed ownership on certain spots.
- 30:23Speaker 2: I'll hammer out a couple quick more and then we'll
- 30:24Speaker 2: get to I think we'll start with more Kawa because
- 30:26Speaker 2: you're bringing him across this week is a big topic.
- 30:28Speaker 2: But well, quick, my guy, Timmy Dubbs. This is just
- 30:31Speaker 2: an excuse for people to be able to make because
- 30:33Speaker 2: nobody knows the mindset of anybody out there. And it's like,
- 30:36Speaker 2: if you just play the game, man, like we always
- 30:39Speaker 2: talk about it, you know this all too well. Just
- 30:40Speaker 2: play the game this week, that's all you got to do.
- 30:42Speaker 2: Nobody knows shit, We don't know what these guys' mindsets
- 30:45Speaker 2: are and all that. So let's play DFS and see
- 30:47Speaker 2: what happens. Because if a guy, one guy with a
- 30:50Speaker 2: bad mindset, one guy that played last week will come
- 30:52Speaker 2: in and do well. One guy that played good last week,
- 30:54Speaker 2: we'll come into it. It's like it's you just never
- 30:55Speaker 2: know how that stuff's going to be. I don't want
- 30:57Speaker 2: to spend too much time on all these different things.
- 30:59Speaker 4: Aaron, I think real quick.
- 31:01Speaker 3: I think the my preferred way to answer that question
- 31:04Speaker 3: is just ask if it's already baked in or not.
- 31:06Speaker 3: Is it baked into the price? Is it baked into
- 31:08Speaker 3: the ownership. If it isn't, then okay, maybe you let it,
- 31:11Speaker 3: you know, affect your decision. But if it is, like
- 31:13Speaker 3: if there's a guy who you thought was gonna be
- 31:15Speaker 3: twenty five or thirty percent, but he's fifteen percent because
- 31:18Speaker 3: nobody wants to play because he was just in contention,
- 31:21Speaker 3: then by all means, go play him, take take that ownership,
- 31:24Speaker 3: just count and run with it. So that's the way
- 31:25Speaker 3: that I like to tell the.
- 31:26Speaker 2: Names and stop worrying about the plays. And just like
- 31:28Speaker 2: I said, just play the game, because it's that same
- 31:30Speaker 2: thing said differently. It's just at the end of the day,
- 31:32Speaker 2: you're not gonna know. And I think this is a
- 31:34Speaker 2: good conversation. We're gonna move to this week at the
- 31:37Speaker 2: RBC Heritage now, so you know, we missed by a minute,
- 31:39Speaker 2: but we were close. But Kala was one of three
- 31:41Speaker 2: percent last week he was your leverage lane like that
- 31:43Speaker 2: was an awesome call by you and came through. I
- 31:47Speaker 2: think it's a much bigger conversation this week though, because
- 31:50Speaker 2: now I think, what are we seeing like double digit
- 31:53Speaker 2: ownership possibly And.
- 31:55Speaker 3: Yeah, we've got him just under ten percent at nine
- 31:58Speaker 3: and a half. It as he just said, like, it's
- 32:02Speaker 3: that's very very different. One to three percent is massive
- 32:05Speaker 3: separation potential. Ten percent, he's still a separator by all means,
- 32:09Speaker 3: but he's not enough separation in and of himself the
- 32:14Speaker 3: way he was last week.
- 32:15Speaker 2: So again, I think we talked pre show on this,
- 32:18Speaker 2: so I wanted to circle back for two seconds, and
- 32:20Speaker 2: we did talk about this setup of also how the
- 32:24Speaker 2: course is played, and you know we're gonna talk is
- 32:26Speaker 2: this a good segue for that too, because we're gonna
- 32:28Speaker 2: talk course fit, anything you might see with the weather
- 32:31Speaker 2: or anything like that. But just noting that, maybe do
- 32:33Speaker 2: you want to tie that into Kawa first and then
- 32:35Speaker 2: segue it into the other comments.
- 32:37Speaker 3: Yeah, So to understand how the different courses affected Markala,
- 32:42Speaker 3: let's first just talk about like what Moricawa's game looked
- 32:45Speaker 3: like this past week, how did he actually contend and
- 32:48Speaker 3: number one is he made a lot of butts, which
- 32:50Speaker 3: is not always somebody that we can count on with Colin.
- 32:53Speaker 3: But his boss speed was down and that wasn't just
- 32:58Speaker 3: a driver thing. It was also true of his irons.
- 33:00Speaker 3: And so the types of shots that he kept playing
- 33:03Speaker 3: was like, let's say he had one hundred and forty yards,
- 33:05Speaker 3: Usually that might be a stock pitching wedge for him
- 33:07Speaker 3: that he's launching up into the air. He was instead
- 33:09Speaker 3: like taking an eight iron and just chipping it.
- 33:11Speaker 4: So they didn't have to swing his hard.
- 33:13Speaker 3: Now, this works around Augusta because of how much undulation
- 33:18Speaker 3: and like segmentation there is within the greens. And so
- 33:20Speaker 3: if he needs to get the ball close from one
- 33:22Speaker 3: hundred and forty yards by chipping an eight iron, he
- 33:25Speaker 3: can do so by landing it here and letting the
- 33:27Speaker 3: contours of the green take the ball to the whole
- 33:29Speaker 3: things of that nature. You don't really get the same
- 33:32Speaker 3: thing here at Hilton Head. And so I think it's
- 33:37Speaker 3: gonna be a lot harder for him to play the
- 33:39Speaker 3: style of golf that he played last week here, and
- 33:42Speaker 3: that is a big concern for me.
- 33:44Speaker 4: And then the other point is, like so much of
- 33:50Speaker 4: what he was able to do.
- 33:51Speaker 3: Also was the fact that you don't always necessarily need
- 33:53Speaker 3: a lot of ball speed around Augusta to get the
- 33:55Speaker 3: ball to where you want, because the fairways also have
- 33:58Speaker 3: that type of undulation. So like think number ten right,
- 34:01Speaker 3: it's it's way downhill turning right to left. If you
- 34:05Speaker 3: hit a low draw around that corner, it's gonna run
- 34:08Speaker 3: and run and run. You don't need to hit a
- 34:10Speaker 3: high bombing, you know, shot around the corner or over
- 34:13Speaker 3: the trees to cut off the dog like the ball's
- 34:15Speaker 3: gonna end up in a very similar spot regardless. And
- 34:18Speaker 3: again you don't get that here at at Hilton Head.
- 34:21Speaker 3: So again I think I think he's a riskier play
- 34:24Speaker 3: this week for higher ownership. I'm probably not interested. And
- 34:29Speaker 3: as we talked about before the show, like the one
- 34:32Speaker 3: the one thought that I think can lead to you
- 34:34Speaker 3: wanting to play Morico and playing him with confidence is
- 34:37Speaker 3: he himself talked about one of the biggest difficulties that
- 34:40Speaker 3: he had last week wasn't necessarily a physical limitation, but
- 34:44Speaker 3: a mental limitation, where he talked about like the just
- 34:47Speaker 3: having difficulty trusting the fact that he could safely swing
- 34:51Speaker 3: because last time he swung really hard was on a
- 34:53Speaker 3: practice swing on a tea box, and all of a
- 34:54Speaker 3: sudden he had to pull out of the players. And
- 34:56Speaker 3: so if you think that last week and out me
- 35:00Speaker 3: like it looked like he was still in pain and
- 35:01Speaker 3: walking gingerly and all that stuff. But if you think that,
- 35:05Speaker 3: you know what, last week was less of a physical
- 35:08Speaker 3: limitation and more just like a mental block, and he
- 35:11Speaker 3: got through a full week playing good golf, no more injury.
- 35:15Speaker 3: He's going to be a little bit looser this week,
- 35:17Speaker 3: He's going to be swinging more confidently. He's more healthy
- 35:20Speaker 3: than we thought he was last week. That to me
- 35:22Speaker 3: is the only argument where it makes sense to play
- 35:26Speaker 3: good stuff on him.
- 35:27Speaker 2: Do you want to anything with the weather you saw
- 35:29Speaker 2: or anything you want to take away as far as
- 35:31Speaker 2: like just adding in any wave advantages like people are mentioning,
- 35:34Speaker 2: or also the fact of you know, a lot of
- 35:36Speaker 2: people are talking about it in the chat. Again, I
- 35:38Speaker 2: think this is particularly baked in or like more for
- 35:41Speaker 2: like if you're making betting decisions where you're picking matchups
- 35:44Speaker 2: and picking on people and looking for stuff, But even
- 35:46Speaker 2: then it gets baked into the line, so it's like
- 35:48Speaker 2: the driving distance not yeah, like it's fifteenth how many
- 35:52Speaker 2: times have we been playing this course, Like we know
- 35:54Speaker 2: that you don't need bombers here, like literally everybody knows that.
- 35:57Speaker 2: So that's why I say, like some of that stuff
- 35:59Speaker 2: just becomes a bit of waste in my opinion. But
- 36:01Speaker 2: anything you want to add from the weather front or
- 36:03Speaker 2: the course fit front, just to round that bit out,
- 36:06Speaker 2: It does.
- 36:07Speaker 3: Look like we could get some breezy conditions both it's
- 36:10Speaker 3: Thursday especially less a little less so on Friday. Then
- 36:13Speaker 3: maybe actually Saturday morning look looks really really simple right now.
- 36:19Speaker 3: It doesn't look to me like there's going to be
- 36:22Speaker 3: a clear advantage. Maybe you get Thursday afternoon being the
- 36:25Speaker 3: toughest conditions. It also looks like there might be like
- 36:27Speaker 3: a lull on Thursday morning. But the biggest thought that
- 36:30Speaker 3: I have on the wave split this week is everybody
- 36:32Speaker 3: makes the cut. So typically the reason why Thursday and
- 36:35Speaker 3: Friday weather is so important is because the most important
- 36:38Speaker 3: thing for your player scoring equity is that he plays
- 36:41Speaker 3: seventy two holes instead of thirty six. Everyone plays seventy
- 36:43Speaker 3: two this week. So let's say you get the bad
- 36:46Speaker 3: draw on Thursday and Friday and you're in fortieth place
- 36:50Speaker 3: because of it, despite playing well Okay, now you get
- 36:52Speaker 3: the really calm Saturday morning where you can go shoot
- 36:55Speaker 3: a really low score and then the leaders have to
- 36:57Speaker 3: play and breeze your conditions late in the afternoon. So
- 37:00Speaker 3: it just matters a lot less when you have a
- 37:02Speaker 3: no cut event and you also have a bit of
- 37:04Speaker 3: a condensed field here. You know, it's it's eighty some
- 37:07Speaker 3: guys instead of the seventy, but still there are. It
- 37:11Speaker 3: just matters a lot less this week, I think, and
- 37:12Speaker 3: so I will be paying probably less attention to it
- 37:17Speaker 3: than usual, unless unless we get to you know, late
- 37:21Speaker 3: tonight and all of a sudden, it looks like there's
- 37:23Speaker 3: going to be a very clear and significant divide by
- 37:26Speaker 3: tea time switch.
- 37:27Speaker 4: Right now I'm not seeing.
- 37:28Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, everyone always talks in the chat in
- 37:30Speaker 2: the comments about like you know, picking plays and guys
- 37:32Speaker 2: that we always you know, sort of make fun of
- 37:33Speaker 2: a little bit, but just noting it. Like please, Alex,
- 37:35Speaker 2: what we need is a segment where you can tell
- 37:37Speaker 2: me the exact guys that are gonna play good a
- 37:40Speaker 2: little bit but not great to get me just so
- 37:43Speaker 2: that they play Saturday morning. I need to know exactly
- 37:46Speaker 2: how I get there to a six person lineup where
- 37:48Speaker 2: they only play Saturday morning, avoid the breeze on Saturday afternoon,
- 37:52Speaker 2: and then have themselves in a really good position on Sunday.
- 37:54Speaker 2: And also if you can do me a favor and
- 37:56Speaker 2: make sure there's lots of wind on Sunday morning. So
- 37:58Speaker 2: now that you're in the lead, they also don't to
- 38:01Speaker 2: play in that, Like, just give me that and I'll win,
- 38:03Speaker 2: you know, I'll win all the money. Then that'd be great.
- 38:05Speaker 2: I would appreciate it. So I think it's important just
- 38:07Speaker 2: to think about. But I will say, like to you know,
- 38:09Speaker 2: another final comment on and then let's talk about Scotty
- 38:11Speaker 2: and no Cut Like, to me, that's where all the
- 38:13Speaker 2: strategy lives this week. You were already segment lives, you know,
- 38:16Speaker 2: a little get some live news here. Maybe soon we'll see,
- 38:18Speaker 2: but just noticing it again, like no cut strategy, looking
- 38:22Speaker 2: for different types of roster constructions and builds, being willing
- 38:25Speaker 2: to take on a little bit more of risk when
- 38:28Speaker 2: we want download. All that stuff's gonna matter way more
- 38:30Speaker 2: like people. I was like, oh, pick the dudes that
- 38:32Speaker 2: are lower owned or all this stuff. It's all factored
- 38:34Speaker 2: in to what we're doing. But honestly, if you had
- 38:37Speaker 2: a good segment, and you don't believe my statement that
- 38:39Speaker 2: nobody knows shit, Like we know some stuff, we're trying
- 38:41Speaker 2: to put it together. But if you truly know like everything, honestly,
- 38:45Speaker 2: it's not even still best suited for a DFS lineup
- 38:47Speaker 2: because you still have to find then the right six
- 38:50Speaker 2: that fit together under the salary conditions. There's so many
- 38:53Speaker 2: more variables in DFS of like streaks, eagles, all four
- 38:58Speaker 2: under seventy, Like, there's tons of different way that can affect.
- 39:00Speaker 2: You could have a lineup that finishes with four guys
- 39:04Speaker 2: in the top ten and two in the top twenty
- 39:06Speaker 2: and be nowhere near the top because it's like you
- 39:08Speaker 2: didn't quite get the winner or you didn't get that
- 39:10Speaker 2: and you could win a lot more knowing that stuff
- 39:12Speaker 2: in advance on placement bets, outright bets, matchup bets, things
- 39:17Speaker 2: like that. So if you actually knew that stuff, it's
- 39:19Speaker 2: it's better applied in my opinion for golf betting, pickums, props,
- 39:23Speaker 2: et cetera. Not my lane, just noting it and not
- 39:25Speaker 2: about my leverage and literally not my lane at all.
- 39:28Speaker 2: I'm focused on DFS strategy and education. But my point
- 39:30Speaker 2: being it's all that. That's why that stuff, like everything
- 39:33Speaker 2: we talked about at the top of the show about
- 39:35Speaker 2: not being able to control your sweat, we don't get
- 39:37Speaker 2: to hit the shots. We have no idea. We just
- 39:39Speaker 2: put ourselves in position to get those one and twenty
- 39:42Speaker 2: shots at a million on Sunday and hope that eventually
- 39:44Speaker 2: goes our way. That's really what we're trying to do.
- 39:47Speaker 2: So let's talk about no cut strategy, and let's use
- 39:50Speaker 2: it to bring up Scotty Scheffler, because one note on
- 39:53Speaker 2: Scotty this week is they did dip his price some. Yes,
- 39:57Speaker 2: but also, I mean, now you're talking about elite golfers
- 40:01Speaker 2: like Sung jm at sixty seven hundred anyone who knows
- 40:04Speaker 2: me it's an inside joke, but just noting it more.
- 40:06Speaker 2: There's like Keegan Holma, people like you know, Woodland McCarty, Sung,
- 40:11Speaker 2: Jay Novak, Wallace, Jordan Smith, Putnam, all these guys people
- 40:15Speaker 2: have seen lately and in some cases do stuff that's
- 40:18Speaker 2: in the upper sixes. All those guys I just named.
- 40:21Speaker 2: Then there's also tons of love for guys like Norin
- 40:25Speaker 2: and Harmon and Yella and Poston and Stevens. They don't
- 40:29Speaker 2: even cross seventy two hundred, So it is very very
- 40:32Speaker 2: easy to build a Scottie line up this week, with
- 40:34Speaker 2: the interesting note that I still think people like Fitzpatrick
- 40:38Speaker 2: Young Henley coming off the week that they just had,
- 40:40Speaker 2: so go ahead, I'll let you take it from there.
- 40:42Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean my answer here is actually a little
- 40:44Speaker 3: bit less just like overall strategy and more specific to
- 40:47Speaker 3: just this week. And the one place we'll deviate from
- 40:51Speaker 3: that is I think that the you know, popular convention
- 40:55Speaker 3: here is that no cut events make it easier to
- 40:58Speaker 3: do studs and duds because the does that you're using
- 41:00Speaker 3: or going to play seventy two holes instead of thirty six.
- 41:02Speaker 3: And that's definitely true. But think of all of the
- 41:05Speaker 3: conversations we've had about Scotty this year and about Scotty
- 41:08Speaker 3: lineup specifically, and what is the number one thing that
- 41:11Speaker 3: we've said about those lineups is that they lack the
- 41:14Speaker 3: ceiling that you need for the entire lineup to be competitive.
- 41:17Speaker 4: And I think that that still holds a little bit true.
- 41:19Speaker 3: Yeah, he did jump down in price to thirteen to
- 41:22Speaker 3: five instead of fourteen, but that all that moves the
- 41:26Speaker 3: needle on is that means that the remaining five spots.
- 41:29Speaker 3: Instead of an average of seventy two hundred, you get
- 41:31Speaker 3: an average of seventy three hundred. And you look at
- 41:33Speaker 3: the names down there, and the names down there are
- 41:35Speaker 3: still not guys with a ton of win equity. Connors
- 41:38Speaker 3: and Kagan, I think are a little bit of an exception.
- 41:40Speaker 3: You can say Sung Jay's a bit of an exception.
- 41:42Speaker 3: So like you are going to build lineups with Scotty
- 41:45Speaker 3: that you do feel good about. He is very usable
- 41:49Speaker 3: in that regard, but you're not getting the win equity
- 41:52Speaker 3: from those guys that you're getting from Minwu Lee or
- 41:55Speaker 3: stepstrac or Chris Godderop or Jacob Bridgman in this you
- 41:59Speaker 3: know upper sevens, low eight, let alone the nine K
- 42:01Speaker 3: range where you're getting you know, Russell Henley, camiong Matta, Fitzpatrick,
- 42:05Speaker 3: those guys that we just talked about, Tommy Fleetwood's and
- 42:07Speaker 3: or Shoffley. So the rest of the lineup you're definitely
- 42:11Speaker 3: still sacrificing win equity. And you're basically saying, like, I
- 42:16Speaker 3: think it goes back to this idea of is Scotty
- 42:18Speaker 3: a separator or not? And I think that right now
- 42:23Speaker 3: you can make the argument that he is like, we
- 42:24Speaker 3: only haven't projected for thirteen and a half percent in
- 42:26Speaker 3: single entries, which absolutely would make him a separator. So
- 42:30Speaker 3: you give his twenty percent win equity the potential to
- 42:33Speaker 3: separate your lineup, and now Scotty lineups do become a
- 42:36Speaker 3: little bit interesting. And so to me, like, the more
- 42:40Speaker 3: interesting part of this decision isn't the fact that he
- 42:43Speaker 3: went from fourteen to thirteen and a half. It's that
- 42:45Speaker 3: his ownership still might be low. And for the first
- 42:48Speaker 3: time last week and at least like a month, we
- 42:50Speaker 3: saw Scotty play really really good typical Scotti Scheffler golf.
- 42:54Speaker 3: And that is why if I have some interest in
- 42:56Speaker 3: him this week, it's it's for that reason. It's because, Okay,
- 42:59Speaker 3: he looks like Scotty again, and now I'm interested at
- 43:01Speaker 3: low ownership.
- 43:02Speaker 2: I think the ownership is the key that you mentioned,
- 43:03Speaker 2: because I still see him like sub fifteen. I think
- 43:06Speaker 2: that's gonna happen, even though because it's like the bit
- 43:08Speaker 2: of a price dip I just mentioned, but like the
- 43:09Speaker 2: I get that it's easy to plan, but I'll say
- 43:11Speaker 2: is like, there's a lot of people I see already
- 43:13Speaker 2: building these and it's like Scottie, Noorrin Stevens, someone else.
- 43:18Speaker 2: It's like, you have the worst Scotti lineup in the world.
- 43:20Speaker 2: Whether it comes through or not, we can't control. But
- 43:22Speaker 2: like you're just building the same as everyone else. I've
- 43:24Speaker 2: built the Scotty lineup. It was like Scotty Fitzpatrick and
- 43:27Speaker 2: three six k guys like let's roll and like they're
- 43:29Speaker 2: all lower own. Like if I'm looking at stuff early on,
- 43:32Speaker 2: I'm just saying, there's so many different ways that you
- 43:34Speaker 2: could do it. But if you are going Scotty because
- 43:36Speaker 2: of everything Alex just said and I agree with, It's
- 43:39Speaker 2: like I'm still looking at the total construction and I
- 43:41Speaker 2: think a lot of people Alex just say, well, kind
- 43:44Speaker 2: of hear what they're saying. I don't think he has
- 43:45Speaker 2: the ceiling either. But I'm gonna build one Scottie lineup
- 43:48Speaker 2: in case and they burn twenty of one hundred dollars,
- 43:51Speaker 2: just twenty percent of their Again, you can extrapolate it
- 43:53Speaker 2: up or down. Are you gonna put that two hundred
- 43:55Speaker 2: bucks of your thousand or twenty dollars versus your hundred
- 43:58Speaker 2: and say I'll build the worst Scotti line up possible
- 44:00Speaker 2: just because like if it came through it's this way,
- 44:02Speaker 2: I I'd want to get it different if I'm doing that.
- 44:05Speaker 3: And to that point, like I think a really good
- 44:06Speaker 3: rule of thumb is simply if you ever catch yourself
- 44:09Speaker 3: saying just in case as a reason for building a
- 44:13Speaker 3: lineup that you're building, stop it, do something else, right.
- 44:16Speaker 3: The reason should always be this gives me the best
- 44:18Speaker 3: chance to have a really good week, not just in case,
- 44:21Speaker 3: but this is this is my best possible path to
- 44:26Speaker 3: having a great week.
- 44:27Speaker 4: And I think, like I said, I think, I just
- 44:28Speaker 4: think that's a really good rule of thumb.
- 44:31Speaker 3: Another distinction I want to make is when we talk
- 44:33Speaker 3: about how easy it is to build Scotty lineups, I
- 44:35Speaker 3: think there are two different meetings here. Number one is
- 44:37Speaker 3: what do Scotti lineups look like? Do you have conviction
- 44:39Speaker 3: on everyone in a Scotty lineup? And I think that
- 44:42Speaker 3: in that sense, it is easy to build Scotty lineups
- 44:45Speaker 3: this week. But the other sense is is it easy
- 44:49Speaker 3: to build him where you're also playing most of the
- 44:52Speaker 3: guys that you really really want to play this week?
- 44:55Speaker 3: And in that sense, it's still really difficult because as
- 44:57Speaker 3: we talked about, like most people are going to have
- 45:00Speaker 3: conviction on Fitzpatrick or cam Jung or Henley or Oberg
- 45:04Speaker 3: or Seewu or MacIntyre, mav McNeely, minwu aka Shabatia and
- 45:08Speaker 3: those guys, especially those first few names, are really difficult,
- 45:12Speaker 3: too impossible to play in Scotti lineups. And so yeah,
- 45:16Speaker 3: in that regard, it's still difficult to build Scotty limpes,
- 45:19Speaker 3: just because once you click him, you are exing out
- 45:22Speaker 3: so many guys that a lot of people want to play.
- 45:25Speaker 2: Yeah, so yeah, I said differently, like it's easy to
- 45:27Speaker 2: build Scotty lineups that might be horrible, but if you
- 45:30Speaker 2: have conviction on that, then roll them. But it's like
- 45:32Speaker 2: you said, or look to get different and take on
- 45:35Speaker 2: some more risk. At the bottom, you're already getting Scotty
- 45:38Speaker 2: the separator. You can get some of those guys up
- 45:39Speaker 2: the middle. I would really like that. What I'd want
- 45:42Speaker 2: to be doing myself is looking to avoid like Scotty
- 45:45Speaker 2: with a bunch of guys seven to seventy five hundred.
- 45:47Speaker 2: And you're like, well, kind of have to do that,
- 45:49Speaker 2: Like that's his price, and you know that's where the
- 45:51Speaker 2: average puts you if you just land in that range,
- 45:54Speaker 2: and there's a ton of good values and projections would
- 45:57Speaker 2: put you in that range for a good scott line
- 46:00Speaker 2: up on that end, but those are median projections and
- 46:02Speaker 2: it's a no cut and there's ability to take on
- 46:04Speaker 2: risks where you can make it work and someone will
- 46:06Speaker 2: have it if if Scotty wins at this event. You know,
- 46:10Speaker 2: smaller field no cut, it's not always guaranteed because those
- 46:12Speaker 2: eight nine K guys could really come through. But also
- 46:14Speaker 2: in a larger field tournament the MM side that I'm
- 46:17Speaker 2: talking about, even with leveraging, there's still gonna be angles
- 46:20Speaker 2: where somebody probably gets to that. So I just think
- 46:22Speaker 2: it's important you know too. So that was good, great
- 46:24Speaker 2: advice from you. I gotta know though quickly, not to
- 46:27Speaker 2: bring a fullnother segment into it. But the the maintenance
- 46:30Speaker 2: man battle, what is the what is the maintenance man battle?
- 46:33Speaker 2: Over here?
- 46:33Speaker 3: I was from from our show yesterday with with Pat
- 46:36Speaker 3: there was we had we had a long fire alarm
- 46:42Speaker 3: situation the day before and apparently there was like a
- 46:44Speaker 3: gas leak and so maintenance was making the rounds yesterday
- 46:46Speaker 3: just making sure like everyone's gas stuff is all in order,
- 46:49Speaker 3: like with the stoves and stuff. And they knocked on
- 46:51Speaker 3: the door and I muted. I thought I was muting myself.
- 46:55Speaker 3: But you know how when when Pat sends you the links,
- 46:58Speaker 3: he sends you two links and one is so and
- 47:00Speaker 3: see everything was just for you. And so I was
- 47:02Speaker 3: in the wrong tab and I wasn't actually muting myself
- 47:05Speaker 3: when I, you know, yelled at the maintenance fan like
- 47:06Speaker 3: come back, I'm on a callar on a show whatever,
- 47:09Speaker 3: And so it happened like three times because for some reason,
- 47:11Speaker 3: they knocked like four times in a row, even though
- 47:13Speaker 3: I said the same thing over and over. So it
- 47:15Speaker 3: was that was funny. I thought I was muted, and
- 47:18Speaker 3: all of a sudden Pat says it. I was like
- 47:20Speaker 3: you can hear me, Oh shit, And then yeah.
- 47:23Speaker 2: Did you get for July?
- 47:26Speaker 3: Pat is the kind of guy who you know, always
- 47:28Speaker 3: sees the humor in those situations.
- 47:29Speaker 4: So that was so good, really good. Yeah.
- 47:31Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't listen, but if you if you were,
- 47:34Speaker 2: you know, getting heated or something with the guy, like
- 47:35Speaker 2: come back later, it's like that I could just I
- 47:37Speaker 2: gotta go listen now, because I think it's like you're
- 47:39Speaker 2: always so nice and humble and quiet and composed, and
- 47:43Speaker 2: it's like you're probably like, buddy, why are you knocking
- 47:45Speaker 2: on my door so much.
- 47:46Speaker 4: Like that's like, that's exactly what happened.
- 47:47Speaker 3: So like the the last time I said it, I
- 47:49Speaker 3: I there was some irritation in my voice pretty clearly,
- 47:52Speaker 3: and and I think that's what Pat really liked to hear.
- 47:54Speaker 3: And that's why I were like, oh damn it, human human,
- 47:59Speaker 3: which like, by the way, it meant that.
- 48:01Speaker 4: I was accidentally just yelling while Pat was speaking.
- 48:05Speaker 3: So it was just like I said, I'm very appreciative
- 48:08Speaker 3: that that Pat's all the humor in it.
- 48:10Speaker 2: Yeah, you don't want to catch the wrath of Pat Mayo,
- 48:12Speaker 2: that's for sure. In there done that. But yeah, all right,
- 48:15Speaker 2: let's say this. Yeah, I'm Alex did say please. Yeah, yeah,
- 48:19Speaker 2: I believe at least I did the first few times.
- 48:21Speaker 2: I don't know if I did the last time. The
- 48:22Speaker 2: third time was great, And by great, i'm sure Ross
- 48:25Speaker 2: means it was great for watching and viewing. But back
- 48:28Speaker 2: to the the RBC hare, did you appreciate a good,
- 48:30Speaker 2: good Alex story. That's a good one too, So let's
- 48:32Speaker 2: talk about the chalk build then and what we see
- 48:36Speaker 2: with that, you know, kind of gave our takes on
- 48:37Speaker 2: more cawas Scotty situation, the no cut strategy, all of that,
- 48:40Speaker 2: and and different roster constructions. But what are you then
- 48:43Speaker 2: seeing as the sort of chalk build And I'm gonna
- 48:46Speaker 2: try on my screen. I won't bring it up here,
- 48:48Speaker 2: but I'll just build as we go. You can kind
- 48:50Speaker 2: of guideline me to where you think it lands.
- 48:52Speaker 3: So yeah, I think the starting point, as we've kind
- 48:55Speaker 3: of seen is the high end of the starting point
- 48:57Speaker 3: is going to be Xander. And then like the bulk
- 49:00Speaker 3: of lineups are going to start with some combination if
- 49:02Speaker 3: it's Patrick cam Young, Russell Henley, maybe some lou vig Oberg,
- 49:06Speaker 3: and then there's like a secondary tier of Sea Wu
- 49:08Speaker 3: McIntyre and mav And then almost every type of lineup
- 49:13Speaker 3: construction can use either minwuly and or Aksha Batiya. So
- 49:17Speaker 3: those guys are gonna be popular. And then whether you're
- 49:20Speaker 3: using Scotty or you're trying to jam in as many
- 49:23Speaker 3: of those expensive guys as possible, those who do need
- 49:25Speaker 3: to go to the six K range or you know,
- 49:28Speaker 3: really low sevens. I see them going to Norrin Connors,
- 49:31Speaker 3: Kegan and Sung JM. And beyond that, like there's I know,
- 49:35Speaker 3: I just named a bunch of players, but beyond that,
- 49:37Speaker 3: there's there's no one who's going to be like crazy owned,
- 49:40Speaker 3: and so it's really just like these these little pockets
- 49:43Speaker 3: that you just have to be aware of and make
- 49:45Speaker 3: sure that you're not going from one pocket to the
- 49:47Speaker 3: next and just using all those guys.
- 49:49Speaker 2: Yeah, do you think an eight K guy lands in
- 49:51Speaker 2: there at all very often? Or do you think it's
- 49:53Speaker 2: going to be like the bottom to the top. And
- 49:55Speaker 2: if it's the top, it's kind of like maybe Xander,
- 49:58Speaker 2: but more likely Fits. Like I could see like something
- 50:02Speaker 2: like that, right, Like you can do a what does
- 50:04Speaker 2: Fits and Henley do? The problem is I can't see
- 50:07Speaker 2: it like at the bottom. I think Norin and Stevens
- 50:10Speaker 2: are super popular. I think min Wu as well, but
- 50:12Speaker 2: it's like, how does the bill get to min Wu
- 50:15Speaker 2: without stopping in the eight K range? Because another nine
- 50:18Speaker 2: K guy leaves you there. So it's like, if I
- 50:20Speaker 2: took min Wo out, who's the other guy cheap enough?
- 50:22Speaker 2: I guess what does Henley and Young look like? That's
- 50:26Speaker 2: all that's six point three, So I don't think it's
- 50:28Speaker 2: going that low, So it's probably one of those two.
- 50:31Speaker 2: But even that's eight point one k. Is there an
- 50:34Speaker 2: eight K guy? I guess is the question that you
- 50:36Speaker 2: see being more popular than the others.
- 50:38Speaker 3: So we've kind of had this theme a bunch lately,
- 50:40Speaker 3: right where we've said, you know, there's so much attention
- 50:43Speaker 3: in the nine K range and so much in the
- 50:44Speaker 3: seven K range, at the EK range is gonna go overlooked.
- 50:47Speaker 3: I don't think we have that to the same extent
- 50:49Speaker 3: this week, but it is still true that the main
- 50:53Speaker 3: pockets are upper sevens and then like mid to upper
- 50:56Speaker 3: nines to low tens. So there is still a path
- 51:02Speaker 3: where like if you just go in on that eight
- 51:04Speaker 3: K range, you're going to be different, where instead of
- 51:07Speaker 3: having two nines and two sevens you have four eights.
- 51:09Speaker 4: That's still going to be a very unique construction.
- 51:12Speaker 3: Even if some of those players aren't quite as alone
- 51:15Speaker 3: as what we've gotten in the past few weeks, because
- 51:17Speaker 3: like almost everyone in the eight K range was just
- 51:19Speaker 3: totally overlooking. It was so so hard to land in
- 51:22Speaker 3: that range if you were playing kind of popular high
- 51:24Speaker 3: probability plays.
- 51:26Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I was trying to sort of go
- 51:28Speaker 2: through here and just see. But it looks like the
- 51:30Speaker 2: close I mean, the closest version that people can mess
- 51:32Speaker 2: around it later. Is like something that starts with like
- 51:34Speaker 2: a cam Young Henley kind of fits your Nora and
- 51:36Speaker 2: Stevens whatever else in there, and you might have to
- 51:38Speaker 2: pick an eight K guy, but then it gets you
- 51:40Speaker 2: like one of your min Wu's or whatever. So like
- 51:42Speaker 2: that kind of me to me at least, is the
- 51:44Speaker 2: starting point of it. And then wherever you want to
- 51:47Speaker 2: go from there, Obviously you're you know, a McNeely or
- 51:50Speaker 2: a min Wu can drop way down to like a
- 51:52Speaker 2: Connor's or a song Jay and now all of a
- 51:53Speaker 2: sudden you're popping up to another nine K guy or whatever.
- 51:55Speaker 2: So it's like tons of different things you can look
- 51:57Speaker 2: at from that perspective, But I think like that's the
- 52:00Speaker 2: main starting point. So let's talk about how to leverage.
- 52:04Speaker 4: This one thing there.
- 52:05Speaker 3: Actually this kind of answers that exact question of like, okay,
- 52:08Speaker 3: well what can you do to leverage the come and build?
- 52:11Speaker 3: Going back to one of the questions earlier about total ownership,
- 52:13Speaker 3: this is another reason why total ownership doesn't tell the
- 52:15Speaker 3: whole story, because you're not looking at, okay, well do
- 52:17Speaker 3: I have unique combinations of players? And so as I
- 52:20Speaker 3: look at our single entry ownership right now, like I'm
- 52:23Speaker 3: seeing the combination of Oberg and Minwouly or Akhebatia is
- 52:28Speaker 3: very similar to the combination and ownership not just the
- 52:31Speaker 3: sum but of both players to Seawou Kim and Robert
- 52:35Speaker 3: MacIntire similar price as well. But I would venture I
- 52:39Speaker 3: guess that the combination of Sea Wou and Bobby Mack
- 52:41Speaker 3: is a lot more contrarian than the combination of Oberg
- 52:44Speaker 3: and minwoo Lee, just because one is the preferred roster construction,
- 52:48Speaker 3: where it's just so much more natural to go from
- 52:51Speaker 3: nine K to upper seven K than having two of
- 52:53Speaker 3: those AK guys, And so you might get a combinatorial
- 52:56Speaker 3: ownership in terms of like how many people have for
- 53:00Speaker 3: this exact combination with that eight K range, even though
- 53:04Speaker 3: the total ownership for those two pairs is gonna be
- 53:07Speaker 3: pretty close to identical.
- 53:08Speaker 2: Yeah, And we also just gave like a that ties
- 53:11Speaker 2: in exactly to the other point of like again, we
- 53:13Speaker 2: were barely seeing an eight K guy in most lineups,
- 53:16Speaker 2: maybe one though at most, and that immediately injects two
- 53:20Speaker 2: into your lineup just from that one move, and it's
- 53:22Speaker 2: like that again, you're getting less of the ownership, less
- 53:25Speaker 2: combinatorial ownership, and you're getting a unique construction. That's what
- 53:28Speaker 2: we're trying to say again about like who does anyone
- 53:31Speaker 2: know if Ludwig and Min Wu is gonna beat Robert
- 53:35Speaker 2: McIntyre and see woo this week. We don't. We actually
- 53:37Speaker 2: won't know even till Sunday, and a lot of people
- 53:39Speaker 2: declare things. Oh, by the way, Cam Young dead on
- 53:41Speaker 2: day one, the guy I don't know how he came
- 53:42Speaker 2: back from dead. He was buried alive on Thursday and
- 53:45Speaker 2: then came back and almost won the Masters on Sunday.
- 53:47Speaker 2: It's golf. It's like that type of stuff can happen,
- 53:49Speaker 2: but nobody will know till it ends. But that's why
- 53:52Speaker 2: the other side of it, to your point, you just
- 53:53Speaker 2: made matter so much more. It's like, man, that's just
- 53:57Speaker 2: potentially because again your other pieces in your lineup matter.
- 53:59Speaker 2: But that's where you can find these angles of Like man,
- 54:02Speaker 2: that's quite the difference I'm getting now on all three angles,
- 54:05Speaker 2: and it allows me to still play a Fitzpatrick and
- 54:09Speaker 2: a Nooran or something like that's different than you know,
- 54:11Speaker 2: that's the same as everybody else, but in a different way. Again,
- 54:13Speaker 2: teach your own but just showing that off. I definitely
- 54:15Speaker 2: think something like that is important to think about when
- 54:18Speaker 2: you're looking at your roster construction here. So I think
- 54:21Speaker 2: multiple eight K guys for sure. I think also anything
- 54:26Speaker 2: I mean, this is more obvious, but just noting it,
- 54:27Speaker 2: anything that skips the nine ks is gonna be you know,
- 54:31Speaker 2: super low owned because it's gotta be Cameron Young, Henley,
- 54:35Speaker 2: Ludwig Marikawa. And and don't forget, I mean this always
- 54:38Speaker 2: gets slept on at these types of events at this price.
- 54:41Speaker 2: Tag can't lay was like the best ball striker in
- 54:43Speaker 2: the field on Saturday. I know he didn't help people,
- 54:45Speaker 2: you know, help people very much on Sunday, but it
- 54:47Speaker 2: was the bogie free sixty seven or whatever on Saturday.
- 54:51Speaker 2: And then people are also gonna look and say, well,
- 54:52Speaker 2: I know who plays good around here? You know, can't
- 54:55Speaker 2: it's coming in off a twelve at a seventh before that,
- 54:57Speaker 2: but thirteenth third, third, second, third, seventh and seven third
- 55:00Speaker 2: like miss cut once in there, like he plays good here.
- 55:03Speaker 2: So the nine K range is just gonna be extremely
- 55:05Speaker 2: popular regardless of how you look at it.
- 55:08Speaker 4: Agree with that for sure.
- 55:09Speaker 2: So one thing you said about Xander and I was
- 55:12Speaker 2: just pulling this up quickly here just you know, not
- 55:14Speaker 2: to spend too much time on it. But if you
- 55:16Speaker 2: pull up like Xander, it leaves you seven point nine
- 55:19Speaker 2: k average. I think this is where it gets really
- 55:22Speaker 2: interesting too, because you could I'm just gonna mess around
- 55:25Speaker 2: for two seconds, but like the Sea Wou Bobby mac
- 55:27Speaker 2: factor lands you in the bottle in that mid seven,
- 55:31Speaker 2: it's right between seven and seventy five hundred. You have
- 55:33Speaker 2: seventy three hundred average, So just just between give or take.
- 55:36Speaker 2: But I think that's where you're already different enough if
- 55:39Speaker 2: you wanted to do something with these popular guys. But again,
- 55:42Speaker 2: I don't think you're offline at all by saying, what
- 55:45Speaker 2: does it look like if I add a sepstraca and
- 55:49Speaker 2: now I got seven k flat left, and then I
- 55:51Speaker 2: go with like a sixty five hundred and a seventy
- 55:53Speaker 2: five you know what I mean? Like you can mix
- 55:54Speaker 2: it up and still get different while doing that and
- 55:57Speaker 2: just have a completely different construction. It skips. Then it
- 56:01Speaker 2: doesn't have Ludwig and Minmu or any combo of that,
- 56:04Speaker 2: but it has the Sea Wu McIntyre we talked about.
- 56:06Speaker 2: You still have x You're not getting up to Scotty,
- 56:09Speaker 2: but you're also not punting like three six K guys
- 56:11Speaker 2: here or needing to. And even if you liked two
- 56:14Speaker 2: six K guys, let's say you were interested in a
- 56:16Speaker 2: couple six K guys, you could be back up to
- 56:18Speaker 2: another eight K guy and you skip the nines and
- 56:20Speaker 2: the sevens and you got two six k's instead of
- 56:24Speaker 2: three or more. With like that Scotty version we said,
- 56:26Speaker 2: where you can actually play Scotty and a top guy
- 56:29Speaker 2: and then you got three guys up the middle that
- 56:31Speaker 2: you can play here, like a Bridgeman or something like that,
- 56:34Speaker 2: or Justin Thomas or whatever you feel is up your
- 56:37Speaker 2: your range. There, it's like six seven points off. The
- 56:40Speaker 2: other lineup that we just had is like the Chalk build.
- 56:42Speaker 2: It's a completely different construction. It fades ranges, The ownerships
- 56:45Speaker 2: are actually similar currently, it's not that crazy difference, but
- 56:49Speaker 2: it's such a different construction and starting point and everything
- 56:51Speaker 2: across the board. So little things like that are what
- 56:53Speaker 2: I'd be looking at, especially if you're playing just one lineup.
- 56:56Speaker 2: But in my player pool for mme, definitely the same thing.
- 56:59Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm I'm between two leverage lanes and one of
- 57:05Speaker 3: them is very similar to what you just talked about.
- 57:08Speaker 2: Yeah, I just think it's like the the way the
- 57:11Speaker 2: tournament sets up is you can say. I also think
- 57:14Speaker 2: like there's somebody to be said too, by the way,
- 57:15Speaker 2: and so I'll say two things in one year. What
- 57:17Speaker 2: I was just about to say is like, let's say
- 57:19Speaker 2: a let me pull this up real quick. For sixty
- 57:22Speaker 2: nine hundred, I'm just gonna use like the upper sixes
- 57:24Speaker 2: for this example. But if you go to like Keegan
- 57:26Speaker 2: for a second, who probably gets like the boost and
- 57:31Speaker 2: the high stakes and whatnot, But like let's just use
- 57:33Speaker 2: I don't know, Homer, Gary Woodland, you know, maybe Matt Wallace,
- 57:39Speaker 2: somebody like that. Anyway, there's guys in the upper sixes
- 57:42Speaker 2: that are gonna get you know, some clicks, but not
- 57:46Speaker 2: nearly what they could. And and some of them actually
- 57:48Speaker 2: played well last week or fired at pins or did
- 57:51Speaker 2: different things. That's what you're using as your gauge. So
- 57:53Speaker 2: it's like just my point of you can still have
- 57:55Speaker 2: guys in that range that not everyone can be super popular. Obviously,
- 57:59Speaker 2: if you're adding in Stevens Norn, we know they're gonna
- 58:02Speaker 2: be popular, and that's what's gonna get plugged in by
- 58:04Speaker 2: projections in most cases, but there is guys that you
- 58:06Speaker 2: might here talked about that just still can't get clicked enough,
- 58:09Speaker 2: that can still get you that unique construction that builds
- 58:12Speaker 2: you into that spot and still gives you upside. And
- 58:15Speaker 2: that's where people get frustrated when they're like, damn, knew
- 58:18Speaker 2: I should have went back to this guy or that
- 58:19Speaker 2: guy continued to play well, like I should have you know,
- 58:22Speaker 2: I should have thought of that, And that's why I
- 58:23Speaker 2: was trying to use. I was looking at some of
- 58:25Speaker 2: the guys down there just to compare, but let's try
- 58:28Speaker 2: to see like like Stevens is gonna be based off
- 58:30Speaker 2: last week and the week before, but it also hasn't
- 58:32Speaker 2: done well here. I was trying to look at somebody
- 58:35Speaker 2: that has done well here and like didn't do Like, like,
- 58:38Speaker 2: how much do you think JT. Postin gets owned this
- 58:41Speaker 2: week at seventy two hundred?
- 58:43Speaker 4: I don't think much. We've got him at five percent.
- 58:47Speaker 3: And it's the same sort of thing that we've talked about, right,
- 58:50Speaker 3: Like even in this smaller field, look how many guys
- 58:53Speaker 3: there are between seven and seven point five k Like
- 58:57Speaker 3: it's it's just when you go down to this range,
- 58:59Speaker 3: every but he has so many options to choose from,
- 59:02Speaker 3: and everybody has like slightly different preferences. So yeah, they're
- 59:05Speaker 3: gonna be guys who are preferred by more than others
- 59:08Speaker 3: nor in Connors Keegan, But none of these guys I
- 59:11Speaker 3: think are going to get out of control, and especially
- 59:14Speaker 3: like that secondary level. It's gonna be really hard in
- 59:17Speaker 3: a week like this with pricing like this for someone
- 59:19Speaker 3: who we think is gonna be five percent to get
- 59:21Speaker 3: to ten to fifteen, just because there are so many
- 59:24Speaker 3: of those guys who are five Where like if we
- 59:26Speaker 3: were looking at a very different pricing and instead of
- 59:30Speaker 3: having looks like something like I don't know fifteen guys
- 59:34Speaker 3: between seven and seven point five, if we had five
- 59:36Speaker 3: of them and four of them were popular and one
- 59:40Speaker 3: of them was five percent, Okay, now it's like there's
- 59:43Speaker 3: a very real chance that this guy projected at five percent.
- 59:46Speaker 3: Everyone's gonna say I want the contrarian guy in this range,
- 59:49Speaker 3: and they take him. But it's not the case. If
- 59:51Speaker 3: you want a five percent guy between seven and seven
- 59:54Speaker 3: point five, k you got like eight to ten options.
- 59:57Speaker 3: And so the likelihood that everyone chooses this same quote
- 1:00:00Speaker 3: unquote sneaky guy to the point where he's not sneaky anymore.
- 1:00:03Speaker 3: It's just really really low.
- 1:00:04Speaker 2: Yeah, and I would use that. That's a better one
- 1:00:06Speaker 2: I think is probably Norn. So here here's a prime
- 1:00:08Speaker 2: example for me. Like JT. Poston could be one third
- 1:00:11Speaker 2: the ownership of Norrin. But you're still hearing people mention JT.
- 1:00:14Speaker 2: Poston's name like they're betting him or something, or it's
- 1:00:17Speaker 2: getting mentioned. But just on the way it's going with
- 1:00:19Speaker 2: the optimizer, the projections, the clicks, whatever you want to
- 1:00:21Speaker 2: say of how people are getting there, I think more
- 1:00:23Speaker 2: people could end up on Norrin. And if you really
- 1:00:26Speaker 2: took and I'm used I'm not a coarse history truth
- 1:00:28Speaker 2: or of just noting this, like of the idea of
- 1:00:30Speaker 2: this concept. It's like JT. Poston didn't play last week,
- 1:00:33Speaker 2: Norn finished thirtieth. Norn's upside has been twelfth place six
- 1:00:38Speaker 2: events ago. Besides, that's like twenty fourth or worse and
- 1:00:40Speaker 2: miss cuts and thirtieth's and like very mediocre scores and results,
- 1:00:44Speaker 2: and some of those are in better fields. If you
- 1:00:46Speaker 2: look even two weeks ago when Posten played, he beat Norrin.
- 1:00:50Speaker 2: He was better than noron that week in the same event.
- 1:00:52Speaker 2: It's twenty first to Norn's thirtieth. And then you look
- 1:00:55Speaker 2: at posting here eleventh, fifth, third, eight, six, couple of
- 1:00:58Speaker 2: miss cuts like he can have the upside event here
- 1:01:01Speaker 2: Norn hasn't even played it the last three years. That
- 1:01:03Speaker 2: could be one third the ownership. And it's not just
- 1:01:05Speaker 2: about that. You can play them both together. If you
- 1:01:07Speaker 2: think Norn's a really good value and you want to
- 1:01:09Speaker 2: kind of cut into it in a different way, play
- 1:01:10Speaker 2: them both. I'm just saying when people are looking at it,
- 1:01:13Speaker 2: it's not in a vacuum, but some of those thoughts
- 1:01:15Speaker 2: can be built around that when you're kind of looking
- 1:01:18Speaker 2: for that zone. And I honestly don't see where Posten
- 1:01:21Speaker 2: gets the ownership that Norn does. Right now, I'm seeing
- 1:01:23Speaker 2: like it could even be one third. So I think
- 1:01:26Speaker 2: little things like that when people are trying to figure
- 1:01:27Speaker 2: it out, are just you look at the rest of
- 1:01:29Speaker 2: your lineup and use that to guideline your decision. If
- 1:01:32Speaker 2: you're already super Chalky or popular or on a very
- 1:01:35Speaker 2: popular construction up top, I would find it really difficult
- 1:01:39Speaker 2: to finish it out with Norn because I'm calculating for
- 1:01:42Speaker 2: the whole entire lineup and not just Nora in the play.
- 1:01:45Speaker 2: But I'd feel just as fine if I had to
- 1:01:46Speaker 2: make the decision for someone out there with single entry
- 1:01:49Speaker 2: to say, you know what, I like this construction. I
- 1:01:51Speaker 2: land in this range, but I actually like posting and
- 1:01:54Speaker 2: it looks like I'm gonna get him at one third
- 1:01:56Speaker 2: the ownership, so sweet, I'm gonna plug him in. I'd
- 1:01:58Speaker 2: be good with that, because you're still consuming tering all
- 1:02:00Speaker 2: of those factors and then finalizing with that thought. I
- 1:02:03Speaker 2: don't know if you have anything else you want to
- 1:02:05Speaker 2: add on leveraging the common build this week, but I
- 1:02:07Speaker 2: think we kind of hammered that one out to anything
- 1:02:09Speaker 2: else you want to add.
- 1:02:11Speaker 3: Just one more thing, Like I think the the Minwu
- 1:02:14Speaker 3: and Oxha plays like we've got them at nineteen and
- 1:02:17Speaker 3: nineteen point seven percent right now. There's a chance that
- 1:02:20Speaker 3: those guys end up like thirty percent in some contests.
- 1:02:22Speaker 3: And so if I had to like point to two
- 1:02:26Speaker 3: chalk guys that I know I'm in a fade, it's
- 1:02:28Speaker 3: probably those two because there are good options around them.
- 1:02:30Speaker 3: You can go Harris English, Chris got her up, Ricky Fowler,
- 1:02:33Speaker 3: Sath Pagala, Michael thorpe Bjornson, like there are plenty of
- 1:02:36Speaker 3: guys who have played really good golf this year, and
- 1:02:39Speaker 3: you're gonna get a massive ownership discount in comparison to
- 1:02:42Speaker 3: those guys. Steps Strac adjacent day as well. Even Bridgeman
- 1:02:45Speaker 3: up at eighty two, like he still counts as a
- 1:02:46Speaker 3: pivot as well.
- 1:02:48Speaker 2: Yeah, Bridgeman's interesting as well up there too, like you said,
- 1:02:50Speaker 2: in that sort of the ak range lineup build. But again,
- 1:02:52Speaker 2: those lineups still come in very close in even median projection,
- 1:02:56Speaker 2: and it is insane. And ownership is actually kind of
- 1:02:58Speaker 2: similar for again going back to total ownership, why we've
- 1:03:01Speaker 2: kind of had this whole thing come together by the
- 1:03:03Speaker 2: end of it all, it's like, that's why it's not
- 1:03:04Speaker 2: really worth that conversation. It's like a lot. It's there's
- 1:03:08Speaker 2: lineups with Xander, three eight K guys and two six
- 1:03:12Speaker 2: K options that fade the entire seven K chalk of
- 1:03:15Speaker 2: whoever it might be, Nora and stevens Aux shay Minwood
- 1:03:17Speaker 2: to start at least, if not others, and then it
- 1:03:20Speaker 2: also fades all those nine K guys, and it even
- 1:03:22Speaker 2: fades Fitzpatrick because we're going to you know, Xander instead.
- 1:03:26Speaker 2: So it's like little things like that. Obviously, if Xander's
- 1:03:28Speaker 2: your your dude, you get it fits as your dude.
- 1:03:30Speaker 2: You can put them in for Xander whatever. There's tons
- 1:03:32Speaker 2: of ways to get different, but just kind of a
- 1:03:33Speaker 2: few to throw that out there. So one and done,
- 1:03:37Speaker 2: what do we end up going Hatten last week and
- 1:03:39Speaker 2: then just lucking out at the end, or what do
- 1:03:40Speaker 2: we decide on in the end? I forget?
- 1:03:42Speaker 4: Let me check who did we go with? I think
- 1:03:46Speaker 4: I know how to check this.
- 1:03:48Speaker 2: Yeah, I actually had Rory in.
- 1:03:51Speaker 4: My We're so bad at this. We went camp Smith.
- 1:03:55Speaker 2: Yeah, I remember this conversation.
- 1:03:56Speaker 3: Yeah, so yeah, I had I had Read in one,
- 1:04:00Speaker 3: I had Hatton in another, and then I had cam
- 1:04:03Speaker 3: Smith and ours.
- 1:04:03Speaker 4: So it was a tale of.
- 1:04:07Speaker 2: Two stories with Papa Tambo. He went with Bryson and
- 1:04:11Speaker 2: got screwed on the last and by the way, that
- 1:04:13Speaker 2: cost me a six to six in the main event
- 1:04:16Speaker 2: last week. That still finished like sixty third. That was like,
- 1:04:19Speaker 2: but that was bad, And I had Rory and got
- 1:04:23Speaker 2: the win. So I'm up to five hundred and sixty
- 1:04:25Speaker 2: even with a Rory win, I'm up to five hundred
- 1:04:27Speaker 2: and sixty first place. That's how hard One and done is?
- 1:04:29Speaker 2: What are you thinking for this week or what are
- 1:04:31Speaker 2: your thoughts on this one?
- 1:04:32Speaker 3: My biggest thoughts for this week is that we have
- 1:04:34Speaker 3: a really like extreme course fit model where distance is
- 1:04:38Speaker 3: less predictive than usual into which is an interesting note
- 1:04:41Speaker 3: when you think of my leverage lane, which obviously we're
- 1:04:44Speaker 3: gonna get to, accuracy off the tee is extremely predictive.
- 1:04:48Speaker 3: It's over one hundred percent more predictive than usual. And
- 1:04:50Speaker 3: then you also get a boost to both around the
- 1:04:52Speaker 3: green and putting, with accuracy and around the green being
- 1:04:56Speaker 3: the two highest separating skill sets at this golf course.
- 1:04:59Speaker 3: So my first thought is, can we find somebody like
- 1:05:03Speaker 3: near the top who's one of the best players in
- 1:05:05Speaker 3: this field that we give him a lot more win
- 1:05:08Speaker 3: equity at disc golf course than at most of the
- 1:05:10Speaker 3: signature events, Like you know, we're about to go to
- 1:05:12Speaker 3: Miami and quel Hollow, two courses where distance is massively rewarded.
- 1:05:17Speaker 3: So I think that's kind of the main thought I
- 1:05:20Speaker 3: want to lean into, which points us to Henley or
- 1:05:23Speaker 3: Tommy Fleetwood or Matt Fitzpatrick. Calla Morikawa if he was healthy,
- 1:05:28Speaker 3: I think would be a good play. But those are
- 1:05:30Speaker 3: the kind of names that I think I really point
- 1:05:32Speaker 3: to first. Robert McIntyre is another one.
- 1:05:34Speaker 4: Seawoo Kim. Those kinds of players, all right, I.
- 1:05:38Speaker 2: Like probably I don't know. I was kind of feeling
- 1:05:42Speaker 2: the Sea Wou call. But you know, what do you
- 1:05:44Speaker 2: think of for ours?
- 1:05:46Speaker 3: My My first thought was Henley, but I like Sea
- 1:05:49Speaker 3: Wu quite a bit as well. I'd be interested in
- 1:05:52Speaker 3: Tommy or if I of those names. I actually don't
- 1:05:55Speaker 3: have that strong of a preference this week. So if
- 1:05:57Speaker 3: you have a strong preference to see Wu, I'm good
- 1:05:59Speaker 3: with that. No.
- 1:06:00Speaker 2: Actually, I mean that was before you brought up names
- 1:06:02Speaker 2: that made me so first of all, like Henley or
- 1:06:07Speaker 2: Tommy wearing this plaid jacket, it looks like that it's
- 1:06:11Speaker 2: built for them, Like it's just like with his hair
- 1:06:14Speaker 2: hanging out the green jacket. I don't see as much
- 1:06:16Speaker 2: I see the green jacket actually on Henley. I know
- 1:06:18Speaker 2: he's a Georgia boy. Maybe that's why I'm thinking of that.
- 1:06:20Speaker 2: But it's like, if I saw anything there but Tommy,
- 1:06:23Speaker 2: he could wear a plaid jacket. So I don't know,
- 1:06:25Speaker 2: Like what else are we saving to? Is there any thought?
- 1:06:28Speaker 2: Just quickly on to round of one and done on
- 1:06:30Speaker 2: saving Tommy versus saving Henley, like where that we might
- 1:06:35Speaker 2: use them at differences of that, I can't think of
- 1:06:38Speaker 2: a lot. That's why I'm asking you, but said that
- 1:06:40Speaker 2: I liked Aaron's comment. Blinkel, you just described Blickell, just
- 1:06:42Speaker 2: described Henley truthfully.
- 1:06:44Speaker 3: You did, Yes, I did, one did, which is which
- 1:06:47Speaker 3: is why I think Henley is my lean as well,
- 1:06:50Speaker 3: where Tommy's game is a little bit more diverse, and
- 1:06:53Speaker 3: like they're actually very similar in all Stokes gain categories.
- 1:06:56Speaker 3: The biggest difference is that Tommy, despite losing strokes with
- 1:07:01Speaker 3: his distance to this field, still gains about point two
- 1:07:03Speaker 3: strokes per round with his distance over Russell Henley all
- 1:07:06Speaker 3: of their other categories, like, let's see Henley's point zero
- 1:07:09Speaker 3: five better in accuracy, point zero seven better in approach,
- 1:07:13Speaker 3: point zero two worseen around the green, point zero four
- 1:07:15Speaker 3: betteran putting.
- 1:07:16Speaker 4: It's like the.
- 1:07:16Speaker 3: Only place, I mean, these guys are incredibly similar golfers.
- 1:07:20Speaker 3: The only place that they really separate is distance. And
- 1:07:23Speaker 3: obviously this is of course that mutes distance. So this
- 1:07:26Speaker 3: is probably a better place to use Henley, where we're
- 1:07:28Speaker 3: more likely to, you know, have a place that we
- 1:07:33Speaker 3: really want to use Tommy later yeah.
- 1:07:35Speaker 2: I like that, So let's let's do that. Let's use
- 1:07:37Speaker 2: Henley save Tommy for a minute from now and then
- 1:07:41Speaker 2: Also what about betting, betting segment bet the betting breakdown?
- 1:07:44Speaker 2: I know, I think you had one that you posted
- 1:07:47Speaker 2: your discord. Maybe we go back to back because the
- 1:07:48Speaker 2: Henley top three each way I got there last week.
- 1:07:50Speaker 2: You had to be split a little bit, but still
- 1:07:52Speaker 2: better than what people thought it was going to be.
- 1:07:54Speaker 2: I can certainly tell you that. Yeah.
- 1:07:56Speaker 3: Man, it's so frustrating that he didn't get more out
- 1:07:59Speaker 3: of it because he couldn't made putts on Sunday. But
- 1:08:01Speaker 3: when when I think of like how he ruined his
- 1:08:03Speaker 3: chances this week, it was it was more Thursday and Friday.
- 1:08:06Speaker 3: He played really good golf Thursday and Friday, but every
- 1:08:08Speaker 3: single time he made a birdie, he immediately give it back.
- 1:08:10Speaker 3: So if he could have just strung like holes together instead,
- 1:08:15Speaker 3: he would have been he would have been in striking
- 1:08:18Speaker 3: distance before he had the nuclear weekend, instead of needing
- 1:08:21Speaker 3: the nuclear weekend just to get within striking distance.
- 1:08:24Speaker 4: So it really could have been even better.
- 1:08:26Speaker 3: But it was awesome to see how well he played
- 1:08:28Speaker 3: given given how confident, you know, I was in him
- 1:08:31Speaker 3: and uh And this week, the the only hour and
- 1:08:33Speaker 3: I have so far is Minwouly. There is a chance
- 1:08:36Speaker 3: I'm going to add to it, but I haven't found
- 1:08:40Speaker 3: anything else yet that I really like. But honestly, like,
- 1:08:43Speaker 3: of all the of all the thoughts that i had
- 1:08:45Speaker 3: last week, one of the ones that I'm most proud
- 1:08:47Speaker 3: of is actually the minwu Ly fade because it was
- 1:08:51Speaker 3: such like just a just kind of like a a
- 1:08:59Speaker 3: a supporting evidence, if you will, of one of my
- 1:09:01Speaker 3: biggest thoughts about PGADFS in general, which is people don't
- 1:09:06Speaker 3: care enough about long term form and the idea that
- 1:09:09Speaker 3: who you are really comes to fruition in major championships
- 1:09:13Speaker 3: and at the Masters. And Minually has been awesome this
- 1:09:16Speaker 3: year with his approach play.
- 1:09:17Speaker 4: It's been like one of the.
- 1:09:19Speaker 3: Most improved skill sets on tour, but who he is
- 1:09:23Speaker 3: is still a guy who can be vulnerable at times
- 1:09:25Speaker 3: with his approach play. You put him on a golf course,
- 1:09:28Speaker 3: and this is the other thing that I really liked
- 1:09:29Speaker 3: about it is like it also meshed with the course
- 1:09:32Speaker 3: fit emphasis that I apply to my PGADFS thoughts and
- 1:09:35Speaker 3: process because Augusta is a course that rewards and exposes
- 1:09:40Speaker 3: approach play maybe more than any other. And so you
- 1:09:43Speaker 3: take a guy who who he is is someone vulnerable
- 1:09:46Speaker 3: with the approach play, and even though he's been awesome
- 1:09:48Speaker 3: this year, he really got exposed in that way last
- 1:09:51Speaker 3: week and so avoided that chalk. But now you get
- 1:09:54Speaker 3: to a different golf course when we're approach play isn't
- 1:09:57Speaker 3: a separating skill set. It's accuracy and around the green.
- 1:09:59Speaker 3: He's more accurate than people realizing is around the green
- 1:10:02Speaker 3: play and punning are obviously both phenomenal, and I just
- 1:10:04Speaker 3: think this is really good spot for me. He's one
- 1:10:05Speaker 3: of the most volatile players and so he has a
- 1:10:08Speaker 3: really really good win odds because of it. We've got
- 1:10:11Speaker 3: him at two percent and with that kind of special
- 1:10:13Speaker 3: each way over at bet three six five, you can
- 1:10:15Speaker 3: get him at one hundred to one. So literally, you know,
- 1:10:18Speaker 3: one hundred percent of expected value here. I love the
- 1:10:21Speaker 3: outright here on Minwu.
- 1:10:23Speaker 2: Yeah, gonna be gonna be tailing after last week at
- 1:10:25Speaker 2: the Henley stuff. And I think one point you made too,
- 1:10:27Speaker 2: just on a side note of like the long term
- 1:10:29Speaker 2: talent that people seem to ignore. Obviously, there's a course
- 1:10:31Speaker 2: fit at Augusta National Golf Club and we know this,
- 1:10:34Speaker 2: you know, just in general, but like Rory Scotty, sure,
- 1:10:37Speaker 2: but like after that, if you take like the Henley
- 1:10:39Speaker 2: hatt and Rose every year, it seems now you know
- 1:10:42Speaker 2: the Burns. But listen to this though. These are the
- 1:10:44Speaker 2: names that I'm talking about though, like Sam Burns, Max Homa,
- 1:10:48Speaker 2: Jason Day, Patrick Reid, Hedeki Matsiyama, Patrick Cantley, Jordan Speith,
- 1:10:53Speaker 2: Brooks Koepka. This is the leaderboard I'm reading out, Victor Hoblin,
- 1:10:56Speaker 2: Matt Fitzpatrick. It's like they've all been good, we know
- 1:10:59Speaker 2: their name games, do you know, like most of those
- 1:11:01Speaker 2: guys I'm not gonna pull up again from last week,
- 1:11:02Speaker 2: but most of those guys did not have very much
- 1:11:04Speaker 2: ownership attached to them at all. And it's just like
- 1:11:07Speaker 2: a game going back to projections, what you know, coming
- 1:11:10Speaker 2: in all that stuff versus saying, yeah, but these guys
- 1:11:14Speaker 2: are really good golfers long term and this could be
- 1:11:17Speaker 2: where it spikes and this could be where it comes through,
- 1:11:19Speaker 2: and that can mean a lot to your lineups. Like
- 1:11:21Speaker 2: I don't know how many people would have a Rory
- 1:11:25Speaker 2: Hatton Burns. You know, Jason Day can't lay speed, lineup
- 1:11:31Speaker 2: last week, and I don't even know exactly how much
- 1:11:32Speaker 2: that fits, but I'm just say like, that's that would
- 1:11:34Speaker 2: have been a really good lineup. And it's like when
- 1:11:36Speaker 2: you look back at it and say, and I talked
- 1:11:38Speaker 2: about a ton of our shows we did last week
- 1:11:40Speaker 2: with Pat and here of like, couldn't you see a
- 1:11:42Speaker 2: leader board that just has these names across it, like
- 1:11:44Speaker 2: the Reds, the hatt Ands, the Roses, all that stuff.
- 1:11:46Speaker 2: Somebody tagged me was like, isn't that the that lineup
- 1:11:48Speaker 2: your name? Not quite because Rory would have to fit
- 1:11:50Speaker 2: in there somewhere, but just noting we knew he could
- 1:11:52Speaker 2: be up there, we knew Scotty could be up there,
- 1:11:53Speaker 2: and they came one two shut through our guy Matt Gannon,
- 1:11:56Speaker 2: by the way, hit the dual forecast. That's pretty incredible.
- 1:11:58Speaker 2: But just noting it. That's That's what I'm saying about
- 1:12:00Speaker 2: some of this stuff sometimes where people just completely go
- 1:12:03Speaker 2: away with it and their process is just like ignoring
- 1:12:05Speaker 2: that and go all right back to the same thing
- 1:12:07Speaker 2: that didn't work or hasn't worked for them. You've got
- 1:12:09Speaker 2: to think about those things as well. So I really
- 1:12:11Speaker 2: like that point on the long term form all right,
- 1:12:15Speaker 2: go to the leverage lane. I'll let you roll first here.
- 1:12:17Speaker 2: I'm gonna save mine un till the end. I kind
- 1:12:19Speaker 2: of got to it as we went along, But I'm
- 1:12:21Speaker 2: feeling good about this one. So what's yours?
- 1:12:23Speaker 3: Yeah, I like this one too, and it's really contraring,
- 1:12:26Speaker 3: and it goes against course fit a little bit where
- 1:12:29Speaker 3: I want to lean into guys who are long off
- 1:12:31Speaker 3: the tea this week. Now, what I'm not saying here
- 1:12:35Speaker 3: is that I'm gonna go look at driving distance and
- 1:12:37Speaker 3: I'm gonna pick my lineup based on driving distance. No,
- 1:12:40Speaker 3: what I'm looking for is guys who project well and
- 1:12:44Speaker 3: hit the ball far. Why Because the field likes prototypes.
- 1:12:48Speaker 3: They like thinking, Okay, this is a course where accuracy
- 1:12:51Speaker 3: matters more in the distance. So I'm want to find
- 1:12:53Speaker 3: someone who fits both of those things.
- 1:12:55Speaker 2: Right.
- 1:12:55Speaker 3: He is accurate and he is not long. But there
- 1:12:59Speaker 3: are guys who are aturate and long. And the other
- 1:13:02Speaker 3: variable here is that this is a no cut event,
- 1:13:05Speaker 3: and so when like, one of the biggest adjustments that
- 1:13:07Speaker 3: I make is when we have no cut events, I
- 1:13:09Speaker 3: care more about volatility. I want that to added volatility,
- 1:13:12Speaker 3: and I care more about scoring and Birdie raidover expectation
- 1:13:16Speaker 3: is heavily correlated with driving distance. The further you hit
- 1:13:19Speaker 3: the ball, the more likely you are to make more
- 1:13:20Speaker 3: birdies than you're expected.
- 1:13:21Speaker 4: Pretty intuitive relationship there.
- 1:13:23Speaker 3: And so when I look at like the highest berdie
- 1:13:26Speaker 3: rate over expectation guys Ludvig Oberg, Cameron Young, Sam Burns,
- 1:13:30Speaker 3: Jake Knapp, Justin Thomas, Minwu Lee, Nikolai Hoygard, Michael Thorpe, Jornson,
- 1:13:35Speaker 3: Wyndham Clark, all these guys hit the ball far right.
- 1:13:38Speaker 3: And so I'm leaning into like this counterintuitive narrative because
- 1:13:46Speaker 3: even though they fit the golf course a little bit
- 1:13:49Speaker 3: worse than they otherwise would if the golf course rewarded distance,
- 1:13:52Speaker 3: they still can fit the golf course well, you're getting
- 1:13:55Speaker 3: an ownership discount. And because it's a no cut event,
- 1:13:58Speaker 3: they also like fit the event really well well even
- 1:14:00Speaker 3: if they don't fit the course as well. So I
- 1:14:02Speaker 3: really like those guys in as I look through the
- 1:14:04Speaker 3: GPPs course, like a lot of these guys are already
- 1:14:06Speaker 3: just standing out his eyes.
- 1:14:08Speaker 4: On your own play. So that's gonna be my leverage link.
- 1:14:11Speaker 2: Yeah, I like a couple things there, just in general
- 1:14:13Speaker 2: the concept, but also like then there's like certain something
- 1:14:15Speaker 2: reminded me of, like who was it last week somebody
- 1:14:18Speaker 2: posted about this guy it was like Brennan. I think
- 1:14:22Speaker 2: it was right. They're like, wow, Brennan's not a one
- 1:14:25Speaker 2: trick pony, and this week I think he's sixty four
- 1:14:29Speaker 2: hundred dollars and no one's talking about him at all.
- 1:14:31Speaker 2: But it's like, you know, it's not like he did
- 1:14:33Speaker 2: anything too crazy, but it's like just an example where
- 1:14:35Speaker 2: if you can find a guy that you like, like him,
- 1:14:39Speaker 2: you know, twenty fourth last week, twenty eighth, the timeout
- 1:14:41Speaker 2: before that, twenty six the time before, like, he's had opportunities.
- 1:14:44Speaker 2: So it's like it depends on who it is that's
- 1:14:45Speaker 2: about to play, but the concept if it gets you
- 1:14:47Speaker 2: there and then you can find a construction that it
- 1:14:49Speaker 2: fits well with, you could all even if some of
- 1:14:51Speaker 2: your guys are owned, like I think you mentioned like
- 1:14:53Speaker 2: Oberg and Young, Fine, they're gonna have some ownership attach them,
- 1:14:56Speaker 2: But are they gonna be attached to Brennan and guys
- 1:15:00Speaker 2: like that. No, So even when you are landing there,
- 1:15:03Speaker 2: you can make it work. So I'll go to my lane.
- 1:15:06Speaker 2: I was gonna, you know, do a couple I don't
- 1:15:07Speaker 2: want to commit to the first one just because then
- 1:15:09Speaker 2: I'm you know, it's it's only Wednesday after lunchtime basically,
- 1:15:12Speaker 2: so for me, I don't want to come. I was
- 1:15:14Speaker 2: gonna say, Tommy Tartan up top just goes all too well,
- 1:15:16Speaker 2: and I do actually have interested in him, especially just
- 1:15:18Speaker 2: being one hundred bucks more than fits. He could still
- 1:15:21Speaker 2: end up my guy. But what I'm gonna definitely say,
- 1:15:23Speaker 2: and my two hundred dollars single entry, I'm gonna fade
- 1:15:26Speaker 2: the nine k range. Like, I know you just mentioned
- 1:15:28Speaker 2: a bunch of good guys in there and that you
- 1:15:29Speaker 2: can go that way, but I just think there's I
- 1:15:32Speaker 2: really have interest in one or two of the guys
- 1:15:35Speaker 2: above fits fits or above, and then I really like
- 1:15:38Speaker 2: that eight k range for guys that can win this tournament,
- 1:15:41Speaker 2: so the winner can come from there. And then also
- 1:15:43Speaker 2: it almost naturally puts me away from the chalk down low,
- 1:15:47Speaker 2: you know, not to purposely avoid it, but I also
- 1:15:49Speaker 2: could just land there because most of even like a
- 1:15:51Speaker 2: Norrin or a Stevens or any of those guys you
- 1:15:54Speaker 2: choose to like down there, most of them are going
- 1:15:56Speaker 2: to fit into all those different constructions. But a lot
- 1:16:00Speaker 2: of them will be in with at least one nine
- 1:16:02Speaker 2: K guy. That would be another way that I can alleviate.
- 1:16:04Speaker 2: And he says, oh, you played that loser Chalk alex Nora,
- 1:16:07Speaker 2: and you told me he was shit because of this,
- 1:16:08Speaker 2: that and the other. I'm just I'm giving examples, and
- 1:16:11Speaker 2: I'm probably don't end up on him in this line
- 1:16:12Speaker 2: of being honest, but just noting it. Of that's a
- 1:16:15Speaker 2: way that you can still get away with that, because
- 1:16:17Speaker 2: that's how people always try and put chalk in the
- 1:16:19Speaker 2: same bucket. It's like this chalk versus that chalk. And
- 1:16:22Speaker 2: at the end of the day, if I got a
- 1:16:24Speaker 2: seven K guy that's somewhat choky, but then I'm completely
- 1:16:28Speaker 2: different in construction low owned guys throughout all that other stuff.
- 1:16:31Speaker 2: I mean, it's just it's not who you play, it's
- 1:16:33Speaker 2: how you play him. That's where he fits in. At
- 1:16:35Speaker 2: the other side of it, if you've got a guy
- 1:16:36Speaker 2: off top that's chalky, you might not want to continue
- 1:16:39Speaker 2: that path down the bottom. So this is what you know,
- 1:16:41Speaker 2: Aaron said. Blakell mentions four guys. I knew that as
- 1:16:44Speaker 2: soon as he said it. I was like, Eh, that's that.
- 1:16:46Speaker 2: But also I have one hundred and fifty lineups that
- 1:16:48Speaker 2: I'm playing elsewhere, so it's like it's I'm talking about
- 1:16:51Speaker 2: my two hundred dollars single entry that I'm playing this week.
- 1:16:54Speaker 2: I've looked at multiple variations, not one yet has included
- 1:16:57Speaker 2: a nine K guy. Just it's the way I'm building.
- 1:16:59Speaker 2: It's what I like this week is how I see
- 1:17:01Speaker 2: the slate coming to me. Everybody's lane is different and
- 1:17:04Speaker 2: that's the benefit and the point of it.
- 1:17:07Speaker 3: Not only that, but like what we said didn't contradict
- 1:17:11Speaker 3: each other, because what I said was like, I'm looking
- 1:17:14Speaker 3: for guys who are long but also like fit everything
- 1:17:16Speaker 3: else that I'm looking for. I go look at Cam
- 1:17:18Speaker 3: Young and he's got one of the worst GPP scorps
- 1:17:20Speaker 3: on the slate because if his ownership, So even though
- 1:17:22Speaker 3: he fits the type of player that I'm looking for,
- 1:17:25Speaker 3: I'm not going to make that decision based on his
- 1:17:28Speaker 3: his GPP scorp. Yeah.
- 1:17:29Speaker 2: I also think like Xander would fit your description quite fine.
- 1:17:33Speaker 2: I can roll him. If you look at Fitzpatrick, what's
- 1:17:37Speaker 2: been the conversation around him? And this is another funny
- 1:17:39Speaker 2: one because like the short term stuff might not show
- 1:17:41Speaker 2: it as much, but like Fitzpatrick's been working on his
- 1:17:44Speaker 2: driving distance, He's been working on his irons and stuff
- 1:17:47Speaker 2: like that, so it's like different factors could all still
- 1:17:49Speaker 2: fall into it. It's just my preference for the week
- 1:17:51Speaker 2: for my main single entry. I've made a few different
- 1:17:54Speaker 2: variations just looking at things early, not committed to anything yet,
- 1:17:57Speaker 2: but none have involved a nik yet. But you know,
- 1:18:00Speaker 2: like I said, Tommy Tartan could be a thing as well.
- 1:18:02Speaker 2: I could definitely see that he doesn't fully fit your
- 1:18:05Speaker 2: mold of what you stated, but I said, like I
- 1:18:06Speaker 2: think would be Xander is the one that I kind
- 1:18:08Speaker 2: of like, and that's why I didn't want to commit
- 1:18:10Speaker 2: to Tommy up there. And I always take out this
- 1:18:12Speaker 2: stuff very seriously and so I love doing shows with them.
- 1:18:14Speaker 2: That's why it's great to have this show every week
- 1:18:16Speaker 2: and get to chat through things because you catch on
- 1:18:18Speaker 2: to a little bit more while helping everybody else doing
- 1:18:20Speaker 2: it at the same time. But I had Henley in
- 1:18:23Speaker 2: my main event last week, so I know all the
- 1:18:25Speaker 2: tilt you were talking about of the first two days
- 1:18:27Speaker 2: of like make One Give It Back. He's like, there
- 1:18:29Speaker 2: are any way you could make two or three or
- 1:18:32Speaker 2: anything here?
- 1:18:32Speaker 3: Then please the really funny part was he then made
- 1:18:35Speaker 3: two in a row and then made two bogeys in
- 1:18:38Speaker 3: a row.
- 1:18:38Speaker 4: It's like, god damn it.
- 1:18:40Speaker 2: At least he was consistent with equal he's equal provider.
- 1:18:43Speaker 2: But it was just brutal to watch that and the
- 1:18:45Speaker 2: like said to have him come all the way back
- 1:18:46Speaker 2: and get there. But that's that's part of the game
- 1:18:48Speaker 2: we play and why we love it so much. I
- 1:18:49Speaker 2: think again, yes, this week could be a week where
- 1:18:52Speaker 2: others are kind of leaving this in the dust and
- 1:18:54Speaker 2: they're focused on like coming off the Masters. It's this
- 1:18:57Speaker 2: week and then a partner's event, Like I said, from
- 1:18:59Speaker 2: a perspective, so come back for the Is the Cadillac
- 1:19:02Speaker 2: Championship a signature this year? It's like a new isn't
- 1:19:05Speaker 2: it like a new I don't even remember what one
- 1:19:07Speaker 2: it replaced, but it's a it's at Dural, I.
- 1:19:10Speaker 3: Think, right, Yeah, it's just an additional signature event instead
- 1:19:13Speaker 3: of the Mexico Open at this time of year.
- 1:19:15Speaker 2: Yeah that makes sense, all right, that's good man. Anything
- 1:19:19Speaker 2: else you want to talk about? The live news did
- 1:19:20Speaker 2: not come out or I would have held you up
- 1:19:22Speaker 2: like a few minutes longer just to try and discuss it.
- 1:19:24Speaker 2: It sounds like they're, you know, having this big press
- 1:19:26Speaker 2: conference today and going to figure everything out. Then we'll
- 1:19:28Speaker 2: probably get an announcement. But yeah, we'll see what else
- 1:19:32Speaker 2: you want to talk about.
- 1:19:34Speaker 3: Yeah, the only thing for me is, as as it
- 1:19:37Speaker 3: is typical of me, I have not remembered to drop
- 1:19:41Speaker 3: the Master's promo from last week. So if anyone still
- 1:19:43Speaker 3: wants to get in to the discord with fifty percent off,
- 1:19:46Speaker 3: Masters fifty is still going to work as a promo
- 1:19:48Speaker 3: code this week and doing some really cool stuff in there.
- 1:19:51Speaker 3: Added contention performance score, which I talked about yesterday with
- 1:19:54Speaker 3: Pat if anyone wants to kind of go back and
- 1:19:56Speaker 3: watch the beginning of that show or just check it
- 1:19:59Speaker 3: out in the discord and and some MLB explosion analysis
- 1:20:02Speaker 3: props and pick him has been awesome. So it's a
- 1:20:04Speaker 3: great time to get in Master's fifty fifty percent off.
- 1:20:07Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely get in. And I think the funny thing
- 1:20:09Speaker 2: is someone said earlier about like your contention scores, I
- 1:20:11Speaker 2: would have known that my Lowry wasn't in any of
- 1:20:14Speaker 2: my Milli Maker sweats, so I also knew Lowry would
- 1:20:17Speaker 2: not do anything on a Sunday Surprise Surprise I actually
- 1:20:19Speaker 2: don't think you made any in my showdown lineups either
- 1:20:21Speaker 2: because of that, because it's just brutal to watch him
- 1:20:23Speaker 2: on those days usually, But in general that is funny
- 1:20:26Speaker 2: now because people are gonna like have lineups in contention
- 1:20:29Speaker 2: on Sunday and be like, oh shit, I gotta wait
- 1:20:31Speaker 2: for those contention scores to drop the ce is my
- 1:20:34Speaker 2: lineup really as good as I think it is? And
- 1:20:36Speaker 2: then if you're not in there, they're gonna be thinking,
- 1:20:37Speaker 2: oh man, this is really good, and then they don't
- 1:20:39Speaker 2: have to play them. Back to our round four conversation
- 1:20:41Speaker 2: of oh, I don't need to play him anymore. I've
- 1:20:42Speaker 2: already in contention and he's good winning contention. I liked
- 1:20:46Speaker 2: your point too. We still, of course left a Master's
- 1:20:49Speaker 2: promo up to let people get in. But the bigger
- 1:20:51Speaker 2: promo we've got going on right now at Shipped Nation.
- 1:20:52Speaker 2: If you guys want to use it, the Stone two.
- 1:20:55Speaker 2: Just drop the Stone version two point zero that is
- 1:20:57Speaker 2: completely interactive, the stage one of that. We've got a
- 1:21:00Speaker 2: lot of things coming with that tool, but I think
- 1:21:01Speaker 2: it's the best tool in DFS. People love using it.
- 1:21:03Speaker 2: It was a legacy piece brought over in the DJN
- 1:21:06Speaker 2: seventy five mergers, so shout out to our big guy
- 1:21:08Speaker 2: in the sky. But this will be fifty percent off
- 1:21:11Speaker 2: using code Stone two. And that's not just PGA only.
- 1:21:15Speaker 2: You can get PGA with Sabersim. That's on the monthly
- 1:21:19Speaker 2: plans or All Access Core monthly plan where you can
- 1:21:22Speaker 2: get it for Basically it's twenty nine, thirty nine or
- 1:21:24Speaker 2: forty nine dollars depending on what you want and need.
- 1:21:26Speaker 2: The best deal is the forty nine dollars all access
- 1:21:29Speaker 2: for your entire first month less than two bucks a day.
- 1:21:31Speaker 2: Come out, check it out, getting the discord meet people.
- 1:21:33Speaker 2: If you're with another site and you want to come
- 1:21:36Speaker 2: over and check it out, just shoot me a DM.
- 1:21:37Speaker 2: We'll be able to get you set up there to
- 1:21:39Speaker 2: get some action that way as well. All right, cool, Well,
- 1:21:43Speaker 2: this is gonna be a guys. We appreciate you. Thank
- 1:21:45Speaker 2: you so much for watching for Alex and for myself
- 1:21:48Speaker 2: to Tag and Tambo. Good luck this week. Lead Ship
- 1:21:51Speaker 2: its
