- 0:44Speaker 1: guy Alex BLIKEL here with me as always, and we're
- 0:46Speaker 1: gonna be breaking down all things Scottish Open. We'll go
- 0:49Speaker 1: through it like we usually do. We'll start the top off.
- 0:51Speaker 1: We've got a really good topic today, came from somebody
- 0:53Speaker 1: in the chat that we want to discuss. We've got
- 0:55Speaker 1: some news and some fun stuff going on with Alex
- 0:58Speaker 1: and his Discord DF's master ship at Nation dot Com,
- 1:01Speaker 1: the Big Guy Event, a lot of stuff going on there,
- 1:03Speaker 1: and then we've got, of course the Scottish Open. We're
- 1:05Speaker 1: going to talk about the Chalk Build, what that looks like,
- 1:08Speaker 1: some interesting things around the industry coming into this week
- 1:11Speaker 1: that we're gonna talk about there, and then we'll talk
- 1:13Speaker 1: about how to leverage the Chalk Build, the one and
- 1:15Speaker 1: done segment, the betting breakdown. At the very end, Alex
- 1:17Speaker 1: and I will get to our leverage Lane on how
- 1:19Speaker 1: we're handling single entry this week. From that perspective, Alex,
- 1:22Speaker 1: I'll bring you in my friend. Another fun week last week,
- 1:25Speaker 1: but this is I mean, we're getting into the stretch now,
- 1:26Speaker 1: the overnight stuff. I had some fun last week. Advanced
- 1:29Speaker 1: into the Fantasy Golf World Championship, so I'm excited for that.
- 1:31Speaker 1: At the three, I'm open. But this week is fun
- 1:34Speaker 1: when you get the overseas stuff and the blood flow
- 1:36Speaker 1: and getting ready for the Open, the final major starting
- 1:38Speaker 1: next week.
- 1:39Speaker 2: Yeah, it's It's been a lot of fun the last
- 1:41Speaker 2: few weeks.
- 1:42Speaker 3: And I think everyone who watches this show each and
- 1:44Speaker 3: every week, first of all, thank you guys, And second
- 1:46Speaker 3: of all, they everyone here kind of knows that this
- 1:49Speaker 3: has not been my best PGADFS season by a long stretch.
- 1:53Speaker 3: And so the last two weeks have been really fun.
- 1:56Speaker 3: Had really good sweats last Saturday and Sunday Showdown. Had
- 2:00Speaker 3: a great sweat again this past set. I actually thought that, like,
- 2:03Speaker 3: I had this one in the bag. And then Fowler,
- 2:05Speaker 3: who was nine hunder as the point, lost the bogie
- 2:09Speaker 3: free bonus.
- 2:10Speaker 2: On the last toll.
- 2:11Speaker 3: Keegan was four under and bogie free with like three
- 2:13Speaker 3: hosts to play, made two bogies and all of a
- 2:16Speaker 3: sudden I lost by six points. So you know, if
- 2:19Speaker 3: either of those guys gets it done. I get it
- 2:21Speaker 3: done as well, But then on Sunday didn't have a
- 2:24Speaker 3: PGA sweat and instead had to take down to MLB.
- 2:27Speaker 3: So it's been it's been a lot of fun the
- 2:29Speaker 3: last couple weeks to really feel like I've got my
- 2:31Speaker 3: groove back and kind of in a DFS rhythm along
- 2:35Speaker 3: with you know, all the pickup stuff that's been really
- 2:37Speaker 3: solid all year.
- 2:38Speaker 1: Yeah, it's amazing and congrats on that. Like most things
- 2:40Speaker 1: in life, nothing feels better than when the momentum is
- 2:42Speaker 1: going in your favor. So when you got that rolling
- 2:45Speaker 1: finally and you get start the things start to click,
- 2:47Speaker 1: it always feels better. It can go away, but it
- 2:49Speaker 1: can also stick around. It's just part of the mindset
- 2:51Speaker 1: that I think you have to have when you're going
- 2:52Speaker 1: into it, is you want to be playing when you're
- 2:54Speaker 1: feeling sharp. It doesn't always mean you'll get the best result.
- 2:56Speaker 1: We've talked about this a ton on this show, and
- 2:59Speaker 1: that's one of the topics that will bring up. But
- 3:01Speaker 1: there's some fun ones today, like you know, stat will
- 3:03Speaker 1: get to it. Please explain to me, like I'm five,
- 3:05Speaker 1: why Eugenio Chikara is projecting for double digit ownership. By
- 3:08Speaker 1: the way, the Novak nation not really in a good
- 3:11Speaker 1: spot last week. It's almost sixty percent owned in the
- 3:14Speaker 1: Fantasy Golf World Championship and did not come through. I
- 3:18Speaker 1: ended up fading all three of those guys that I
- 3:21Speaker 1: said I would in that lineup as well. I did
- 3:23Speaker 1: play Burger, but when Berger missed, he was he's somehow
- 3:26Speaker 1: I got the forty one percent. I thought he'd be
- 3:28Speaker 1: like much lower than that, like twenty twenty five. I
- 3:30Speaker 1: was like, fine, he's in me one of my highest
- 3:31Speaker 1: own But if you're gonna lose somebody in a week
- 3:33Speaker 1: where you want six to six and like six or
- 3:35Speaker 1: six is a lock in that top fifty spot thing,
- 3:38Speaker 1: it's like, I want to lose the guy that's forty
- 3:39Speaker 1: one percent because it hurt all the other people that
- 3:41Speaker 1: had Coyvin and Novak and Michael Kim and all that.
- 3:44Speaker 1: So we'll talk about that here as well. The sheriff,
- 3:48Speaker 1: congrats to you, says scored my first ever seed. What's
- 3:51Speaker 1: let me know your username. I've talked to a few people.
- 3:53Speaker 1: It's funny to the people that like you never know and
- 3:55Speaker 1: then they come out of the woodworks, like by the way,
- 3:56Speaker 1: and congrats on your seat. Also, I got one. I'm like,
- 3:59Speaker 1: what's your username? Like, Yeah, I've never been in this
- 4:00Speaker 1: before and I don't really go on X or Twitter
- 4:03Speaker 1: that much, but here I am. I met somebody else
- 4:04Speaker 1: the other day, Fred who said he would be down there,
- 4:07Speaker 1: but the sheriff let me know your user name, and
- 4:08Speaker 1: if you're going to be at the event, I'm definitely
- 4:10Speaker 1: going down so we will meet up there. We've got
- 4:12Speaker 1: some questions about qualifiers. I mean, we could kick it
- 4:15Speaker 1: off with this. You did just say you were in
- 4:17Speaker 1: the queues, and I know we're in the Q streets heavy,
- 4:19Speaker 1: especially this week with your last shot to get into
- 4:21Speaker 1: the Mega for next week the forty four to forty four.
- 4:24Speaker 1: But it says, Alex, question for you today about qualifiers,
- 4:26Speaker 1: since we play similarly, if playing two entries like a
- 4:29Speaker 1: single entry, would you enter both in the seventy dollars
- 4:32Speaker 1: two max or spread it over two contests since those
- 4:36Speaker 1: are winner.
- 4:36Speaker 3: Take all the seventy dollars fire recall correctly is either
- 4:40Speaker 3: seventy two entries or sixty seven.
- 4:43Speaker 1: I think it's sixty seven something like.
- 4:44Speaker 3: Yeah, So in this case I would definitely do I
- 4:47Speaker 3: would definitely do it in the two different contests, so
- 4:49Speaker 3: you have the chance to win two tickets. The argument
- 4:53Speaker 3: for doing them together in the same contest would be
- 4:56Speaker 3: that you knock one other entry out, right, so now
- 4:59Speaker 3: you have to beat sixty So you said, there's sixty seven,
- 5:02Speaker 3: So now I have to beat sixty five people instead
- 5:04Speaker 3: of sixty six.
- 5:06Speaker 2: Like that's that doesn't change your odds in any way.
- 5:08Speaker 1: Right.
- 5:08Speaker 3: If if this was a if this was a ten
- 5:11Speaker 3: man where you have the option to play two, now
- 5:14Speaker 3: having to beat eight other guys instead of nine other guys,
- 5:17Speaker 3: that actually does change your odds to win a decent
- 5:21Speaker 3: enough amount that maybe it's worth it. But it's seventy
- 5:26Speaker 3: two like you said, Yeah, okay, so yeah, you have
- 5:28Speaker 3: to beat seventy instead of seventy one. That doesn't really
- 5:30Speaker 3: change your odds in any meaningful way. So I think
- 5:33Speaker 3: you want to give yourself the opportunity to win two
- 5:35Speaker 3: instead of just one.
- 5:37Speaker 1: Yeah, my back testing research and you guys know, I
- 5:39Speaker 1: do a ton of review on the top players and
- 5:41Speaker 1: that sort of stuff that are using all different factors
- 5:43Speaker 1: when they're doing this, and you see a lot in
- 5:45Speaker 1: the queues specifically not I mean, now he's asking about
- 5:47Speaker 1: Q shut up the scooter here, But to say, I
- 5:50Speaker 1: mean more like the Fantasy Baseball World Championship, And that's
- 5:54Speaker 1: a good one to use. Fantasy Golf World Championship. You know,
- 5:56Speaker 1: in the first I had two different ways to cover.
- 5:59Speaker 1: I would need to be able to get to the
- 6:00Speaker 1: final to pay something off in the biggest way, so
- 6:03Speaker 1: I wanted to at least get one through, and I
- 6:05Speaker 1: didn't make it so that neither I made it so
- 6:06Speaker 1: both could win. I just needed a top one hundred.
- 6:08Speaker 1: I came like one thirty sixth and inside the top
- 6:11Speaker 1: one hundred, one forty second and top on hundred, so
- 6:13Speaker 1: it could have happened. It just didn't. But my point
- 6:15Speaker 1: being in baseball, use it as a better example. And
- 6:18Speaker 1: then like the nine to twenty nine hundred and twenty dollars,
- 6:20Speaker 1: buy in with around seventy two people give or take,
- 6:24Speaker 1: and you can play two entries. You'll see some of
- 6:26Speaker 1: the top players play like Bradley last night from Minnesota
- 6:32Speaker 1: with Wheeler, okay, and that makes sense, and that builds
- 6:34Speaker 1: out the lineup, but then their second lineup will have
- 6:37Speaker 1: a full five man Cleveland stack against Bradley, who's like
- 6:40Speaker 1: at chopping meat at a great night at at like
- 6:42Speaker 1: a little bit you know, mid range ownership. But my
- 6:44Speaker 1: point just using that example is like they're saying it's
- 6:47Speaker 1: winner take all. They're not playing like the same team
- 6:50Speaker 1: with like two bats different and being like, well, what
- 6:52Speaker 1: if this guy gets the home run or what if
- 6:54Speaker 1: this guy gets the home run. It's almost like a
- 6:55Speaker 1: waste at that money of like it wouldn't be if
- 6:58Speaker 1: you win it, but you're better off to almost make
- 7:00Speaker 1: it to say, like, if I'm knocking something out, I
- 7:01Speaker 1: wanted to knock out all this stuff with it and
- 7:04Speaker 1: bring the other one along. If you're gonna play teams
- 7:06Speaker 1: that close, Scooter, I'm with Alex as well, and I
- 7:09Speaker 1: would say, like they're that close, we want to kind
- 7:11Speaker 1: of try and win two of them as opposed to
- 7:13Speaker 1: push them against each other. Now, if there was a
- 7:14Speaker 1: week with weather and he said, man, I can't tell
- 7:17Speaker 1: if it's gonna be AM or PM stack, but I'm
- 7:20Speaker 1: going with the field on the AM stack, but I'm
- 7:22Speaker 1: gonna use a PM It might be six teams out
- 7:24Speaker 1: of the seventy two that have a PM stack, and
- 7:26Speaker 1: not only does your AM team get wiped out, but
- 7:28Speaker 1: all the am stack teams get wiped out. Now you're
- 7:31Speaker 1: in a game of one of six instead of two
- 7:34Speaker 1: of seventy two. So that's where I would feel better
- 7:36Speaker 1: about putting it into the same one. Hopefully that helps
- 7:39Speaker 1: you out. The sheriff comes through with the easiest one ever, buddy,
- 7:43Speaker 1: Just look at my handle. Yeah, bets man, that's gonna
- 7:46Speaker 1: be awesome. So this will be there Thursday morning. Uh,
- 7:49Speaker 1: don't want to miss the cut. Sweat DK doesn't start
- 7:51Speaker 1: till Friday. It's weird. This is crazy, Alex. So they're
- 7:53Speaker 1: doing Friday night welcome reception. So as I always make
- 7:58Speaker 1: the joke, you could be literally dead on arrival. You
- 8:00Speaker 1: can have two or six and that. But on a
- 8:03Speaker 1: side note, there's a good reason you may enjoy this.
- 8:05Speaker 1: A they added starting last year a round four contest,
- 8:09Speaker 1: which pays two hundred and fifty thousand to first minimum.
- 8:11Speaker 1: Everybody gets at least five K, and first is two
- 8:14Speaker 1: hundred and fifty k. It's like a decent payout structure. Two,
- 8:17Speaker 1: which so you're not really dead on arrival. Even your
- 8:19Speaker 1: classic team is dead for the millie. But two everybody
- 8:23Speaker 1: gets that wants to stay through gets to golf the
- 8:25Speaker 1: same course on Monday.
- 8:27Speaker 2: Oh that's awesome.
- 8:27Speaker 1: Okay, so that's pretty cool, right, you're getting that, so
- 8:29Speaker 1: that is part of it, So Sheriff, I'm actually because
- 8:31Speaker 1: where I'm flying from, I'll also be in on Thursday night,
- 8:34Speaker 1: a little bit later on. But because of the cuts,
- 8:39Speaker 1: like the cuts what I want to be there for
- 8:40Speaker 1: on Friday, but also I don't want to be leaving
- 8:42Speaker 1: on Thursday morning going up risking the Wi fire, the
- 8:45Speaker 1: air of like the late withdraw. I got to have
- 8:47Speaker 1: the teams locked before I fly out, So I will
- 8:50Speaker 1: be up there Thursday night. But I definitely reach out. Man,
- 8:52Speaker 1: we'll we'll connect to have a drink or whatever it
- 8:53Speaker 1: is you like to do meet up. But good question here,
- 8:57Speaker 1: Alex that I wanted to talk about anything else you
- 8:58Speaker 1: want to recap from last week? First, I guess we
- 9:00Speaker 1: couple minutes, but anything you want to go off of
- 9:01Speaker 1: for last.
- 9:02Speaker 2: Week I don't think. So this is a really good question.
- 9:05Speaker 2: Let's just jump right in.
- 9:06Speaker 1: Okay, Brandon, this was awesome. We were tossing some different
- 9:09Speaker 1: ideas back and forth, and we've got a meeting after
- 9:11Speaker 1: this and just to chat through some things, you know, together,
- 9:13Speaker 1: But this kind of hit on it perfectly, and Brandon says,
- 9:16Speaker 1: good morning. If you had to rebuild the process of
- 9:19Speaker 1: a losing DFS player from scratch, what would be the
- 9:22Speaker 1: first two things you would focus on. I'm basically ad
- 9:25Speaker 1: living some up. It is just not getting the results
- 9:27Speaker 1: that weren't the time I'm putting in. So Alex, I'll
- 9:29Speaker 1: kick it to you first. I mean, I've got a
- 9:31Speaker 1: ton of different thoughts, but I think this is something
- 9:33Speaker 1: that you and I both you know, near and dear
- 9:34Speaker 1: to our hearts. We spend a lot of time on
- 9:35Speaker 1: this with our different brands and projects and things that
- 9:38Speaker 1: we work on. So what's your thoughts to help Brandon
- 9:40Speaker 1: out here? And I'm sure there's many others asking this
- 9:42Speaker 1: question and thinking like Brandon.
- 9:44Speaker 3: Yeah, this is this is a phenomenal question because I
- 9:47Speaker 3: think the very first thing I'll say here is, Brandon,
- 9:51Speaker 3: you're already ahead of where you probably believe you are
- 9:54Speaker 3: because you are recognizing this right, Like, there are so
- 9:58Speaker 3: many losing DFS players who are just firing week after
- 10:02Speaker 3: week after week, and they're not recognizing the fact that, hey,
- 10:05Speaker 3: you know what, there's something in my process that isn't
- 10:07Speaker 3: quite right that I need to improve on. So you're
- 10:10Speaker 3: you're already a step ahead in that regard. The second
- 10:13Speaker 3: thing that I would say is focus on the fundamentals. So, uh,
- 10:17Speaker 3: you know, Mastermind is is obviously awesome at teaching fundamentals,
- 10:21Speaker 3: and uh so if you're not a part of Mastermind already,
- 10:23Speaker 3: that's that's probably a good place. Chances are you you
- 10:26Speaker 3: may already be.
- 10:27Speaker 2: But I think.
- 10:30Speaker 3: Like one of the things that I do in my discord,
- 10:32Speaker 3: for example for baseball, is I have these massive, like
- 10:35Speaker 3: roster construction charts where I'm looking at, Hey, these are
- 10:38Speaker 3: just flat out winning strategies. If your lineup fits this category,
- 10:43Speaker 3: it's going to be a winning strategy. So for example,
- 10:45Speaker 3: like five three stacks this year not as good as
- 10:49Speaker 3: I expected them to be. Five two, one four, three,
- 10:52Speaker 3: one four, four are all superior or to five three. Okay,
- 10:55Speaker 3: that's a good thing to know. The second thing is like, uh,
- 10:58Speaker 3: if you're using the most popular stats on the slate,
- 11:01Speaker 3: not using the most popular bat in that stack is
- 11:04Speaker 3: a winning strategy. So just things like that where you
- 11:07Speaker 3: can go through and just like make a checklist for yourself.
- 11:09Speaker 3: Am I doing this within the lineup?
- 11:11Speaker 2: Am I not?
- 11:12Speaker 3: And I think you know it's going to be hard
- 11:15Speaker 3: for an average DFS player to just kind of have
- 11:18Speaker 3: that information on their own. Got to go somewhere to
- 11:20Speaker 3: get that. So mastermind, I discord that sort of thing.
- 11:22Speaker 2: I do think.
- 11:23Speaker 3: Helps in that regard, but mostly it's just I think
- 11:27Speaker 3: simplifying and sticking to fundamentals. And so, like one question
- 11:32Speaker 3: that I would ask right away is what kind of
- 11:34Speaker 3: contests are you playing every week? Are you doing twenty max?
- 11:36Speaker 3: You're doing single entry. I think the worst thing you
- 11:38Speaker 3: could possibly do is like a different thing every single week. Right.
- 11:42Speaker 3: You want you want a process that you can really
- 11:45Speaker 3: own and make your own, and so personally, I think
- 11:48Speaker 3: the easiest way to do that is to go to
- 11:50Speaker 3: single entry. Just do one lineup per week and make
- 11:52Speaker 3: sure that that lineup or one lineup per slate, I
- 11:54Speaker 3: should say, and make sure that that lineup is as
- 11:57Speaker 3: fundamentally sound as it can be.
- 11:58Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with you, man. And it's always a
- 12:00Speaker 1: sales pitch. I get it, people, but I make it
- 12:02Speaker 1: like so for it's forty seven bucks one time payment
- 12:04Speaker 1: to get started if you had in seven hours of
- 12:06Speaker 1: just like dialing in the foundation and the fundamentals of
- 12:10Speaker 1: your game. But it's this was my own learning experience.
- 12:12Speaker 1: Anybody who knows me, and I've been doing this for years,
- 12:14Speaker 1: it's on record. That's a nice thing about doing this publicly. Forever.
- 12:17Speaker 1: I used to do all picks and plays. I was
- 12:19Speaker 1: on the Fantasy Golf Degenerates. It's nothing against it, but
- 12:21Speaker 1: like I would talk about that all the time, thinking
- 12:23Speaker 1: that's what was important. If anybody who remembers my stuff,
- 12:26Speaker 1: I did Tambo's tidbits, and I know some people still
- 12:28Speaker 1: want those back, and it was nice. I believe still
- 12:30Speaker 1: in curation, I love that. It's like I know nobody
- 12:32Speaker 1: has every time to go everywhere and get it all,
- 12:34Speaker 1: but just to note it. It's like man curating all
- 12:37Speaker 1: the picks and plays to still have to know how
- 12:39Speaker 1: to build the lineups. And that's why you see some
- 12:41Speaker 1: of these. This is just dfsmastermind dot com and you
- 12:44Speaker 1: check it out, but it's like there's so much content
- 12:46Speaker 1: beyond just the two courses. The two courses are forty
- 12:48Speaker 1: seven bucks. You own them forever. You get them on
- 12:50Speaker 1: a podcast, you can have them on video. Check them out.
- 12:52Speaker 1: But these are the fundamentals I learned the game, and
- 12:55Speaker 1: not just picks and plays. Game changer for a DFS
- 12:58Speaker 1: player changing the way I looked at the game. I
- 13:00Speaker 1: talk about this a ton, but people don't talk about
- 13:04Speaker 1: content diet enough. And again this will sound biased because
- 13:07Speaker 1: I think that's why people enjoy listening to us, and
- 13:09Speaker 1: hopefully they do, and if they didn't, they if they
- 13:11Speaker 1: wouldn't be here. So it's fine. I think everybody here
- 13:13Speaker 1: that does enjoy listening to us, but it's you're renting
- 13:16Speaker 1: someone else's process. Like I used to do this too.
- 13:18Speaker 1: I joked to you, I've filled you the story. Before
- 13:20Speaker 1: I would go to the gym, I would listen to
- 13:21Speaker 1: a podcast, and on a Tuesday of NFL season, I'm
- 13:25Speaker 1: going through and typing in NFL lineups like, oh, back
- 13:27Speaker 1: in the day, shout up to the CSU RAM and
- 13:30Speaker 1: you know those guys back in the day, like you
- 13:32Speaker 1: DFS Edge or the DraftKings Edge or whatever it was called.
- 13:34Speaker 1: I was like, I was listening to them. CSU RAM
- 13:36Speaker 1: games gave me some ideas I'd build the CSU RAM lineup.
- 13:39Speaker 3: Well.
- 13:39Speaker 1: By the end of the week, I'd built ten different
- 13:41Speaker 1: podcast lineups of people I listened to. Even if something
- 13:45Speaker 1: had success, I had absolutely no clue where I got
- 13:49Speaker 1: it from. I swear I'd be like, well, and who cares?
- 13:51Speaker 1: Right you want some money? You're like, shit, I know
- 13:53Speaker 1: I did my process work, but what was my process? Like,
- 13:56Speaker 1: I have no clue how I could redo this the
- 13:58Speaker 1: next week. So it's like, you know it talks about
- 14:00Speaker 1: it all too much information, no framework. People say it
- 14:03Speaker 1: all the time, all the right pieces, just not in
- 14:05Speaker 1: the right place. Is keep depositing you said, everyone just
- 14:07Speaker 1: fires off without making it so our thought process is
- 14:11Speaker 1: again Also, I should know it if you go to
- 14:15Speaker 1: ship It Nation and you're just a member over here.
- 14:17Speaker 1: There is free education courses too by sport if you
- 14:20Speaker 1: want to check out. But I think getting the foundation,
- 14:22Speaker 1: learning it, and then being able to take into something
- 14:24Speaker 1: like Alex's discord where you can say, hey, I've got
- 14:27Speaker 1: the fundamentals to have a good process. Now I can
- 14:30Speaker 1: take in all this information and use it to my
- 14:32Speaker 1: advantage and really understand what's going on. So Brandon, I
- 14:36Speaker 1: think you're in a right in the right place. As
- 14:37Speaker 1: Alex said, I think refocusing on getting back to basics,
- 14:41Speaker 1: sticking with good contest selection and bankroll manager, which if
- 14:44Speaker 1: you don't have that, it's in all the courses and
- 14:45Speaker 1: stuff that you can get on ship Nation or Mastermind
- 14:47Speaker 1: or any of that stuff. But then also the content diet,
- 14:51Speaker 1: understand that if you're listening to podcasts just to listen
- 14:53Speaker 1: to them or like try and take in so much information.
- 14:56Speaker 1: I would really focus on people that are actually playing
- 14:59Speaker 1: the game at a high level, that you're seeing them
- 15:02Speaker 1: have success, that they're putting up real money, and it's
- 15:05Speaker 1: not just because of the money that they put up,
- 15:07Speaker 1: it's just that means they're more invested. Like if they're
- 15:09Speaker 1: putting up the money to try and find and they're
- 15:11Speaker 1: actually trying to help you, that's what I would be
- 15:13Speaker 1: looking for. Man, So I think you're in the right place.
- 15:15Speaker 1: I think you're doing some of the right stuff. If
- 15:16Speaker 1: you have any questions, feel free to DM me and
- 15:18Speaker 1: reach out. But Alex, do you have anything you want
- 15:19Speaker 1: to add?
- 15:20Speaker 3: Yeah, So just like to specifically answer the question of
- 15:23Speaker 3: what would be the first two things you would focus on?
- 15:25Speaker 2: Do you have Do you have like two specifics in mind?
- 15:29Speaker 1: For sure? I would say content diet and bankroll management
- 15:32Speaker 1: and contest selection because the bankroll management contes selection is
- 15:34Speaker 1: so cliche, but it's more than that. That's why I
- 15:37Speaker 1: added on to like what you had said, it's like,
- 15:38Speaker 1: sometimes get back to the basics. People are experimenting, Well,
- 15:41Speaker 1: I'm gonna try twenty max this week, I'm gonna play
- 15:43Speaker 1: single entry, and just things aren't going my way. See
- 15:45Speaker 1: how it goes. It's like you got to dial in
- 15:47Speaker 1: to what it is that gets you back to the
- 15:48Speaker 1: basics and then get rid of the information overload, focus
- 15:51Speaker 1: way more on learning how to play the game Chess.
- 15:55Speaker 1: I use it all the time, and I'm not even
- 15:56Speaker 1: a good chess player. I don't even know the rules,
- 15:58Speaker 1: but it is the same and the same pieces. I
- 16:02Speaker 1: think you're a chess guy. If you and I played
- 16:04Speaker 1: chess one hundred times, you would beat me one hundred
- 16:07Speaker 1: to zero. Ghit you would, because it's like I don't.
- 16:09Speaker 1: I don't. There's no way. I don't have the moves
- 16:11Speaker 1: in my TA, like it's not in my bag. But
- 16:13Speaker 1: if I play Brandon in DFS, will there's variance and whatever,
- 16:17Speaker 1: I'd be confident in my ability over one hundred games
- 16:20Speaker 1: of head to heads and being able to play against him.
- 16:22Speaker 1: And that's not big uping. I'm it's saying that's that's
- 16:25Speaker 1: the factors here. So I think it is important to
- 16:27Speaker 1: know that this is a game. Focus on learning the
- 16:30Speaker 1: game and stop worrying about the picks and plays. We
- 16:32Speaker 1: say it all the time, but it's it's so true. Yeah,
- 16:34Speaker 1: I think my two would be very similar.
- 16:36Speaker 3: Like the first thing that I would focus on is
- 16:38Speaker 3: I would just say, Okay, how can I build one
- 16:40Speaker 3: lineup per slate really really well?
- 16:42Speaker 2: And then the second thing that I would do is.
- 16:45Speaker 3: I would, if you haven't already, I would start tracking
- 16:48Speaker 3: what you do every slate and you can download your
- 16:50Speaker 3: DraftKings entries and kind of answer this question yourself. But
- 16:54Speaker 3: I would want to know how often are your lineups
- 16:56Speaker 3: finishing in the top one percent and how often are
- 16:58Speaker 3: they finishing in the top ten percent of contests, And ideally,
- 17:02Speaker 3: like you want to be in the top one percent
- 17:04Speaker 3: more than one percent of the time, you want to
- 17:05Speaker 3: be in the top ten percent more than ten percent
- 17:07Speaker 3: of the time. If you can hit those benchmarks, even
- 17:09Speaker 3: if you're losing money, you at least know, Okay, the
- 17:12Speaker 3: process is sound. I'm putting myself in position for wins,
- 17:14Speaker 3: and the wins just aren't coming. But you also might
- 17:17Speaker 3: learn some stuff about like the shape of your distribution
- 17:20Speaker 3: for example, So maybe you're like just under one percent
- 17:23Speaker 3: for the top one percent, but you're nowhere near ten percent.
- 17:26Speaker 3: That probably means you're being too contrarian. You need to
- 17:28Speaker 3: actually embrace some more chalk. If, on the other hand,
- 17:31Speaker 3: you're at like, oh, I'm finishing in top the top
- 17:34Speaker 3: ten percent fairly often, but I'm very, very rarely getting
- 17:37Speaker 3: to the top one percent of contests, that means you're
- 17:39Speaker 3: probably not being contrarian enough, you're not giving yourself enough
- 17:42Speaker 3: separat or so by doing that, you can also kind
- 17:44Speaker 3: of learn about where you're coming up short. And you
- 17:47Speaker 3: know that just that takes away some of the variants
- 17:50Speaker 3: of profit and loss in dfs, because profit and loss
- 17:54Speaker 3: is so much better. Like when you have that top
- 17:56Speaker 3: one percent lineup, are you finishing first or are you
- 17:59Speaker 3: just coming up short and finishing third. That's a lot
- 18:02Speaker 3: of randomness, whereas giving yourself those chances. It's just like
- 18:06Speaker 3: you know, talking about guys winning golf tournaments, right, like
- 18:08Speaker 3: the guy who's in contention a lot is the one
- 18:11Speaker 3: who's probably gonna win more often in the future than
- 18:13Speaker 3: the guy who only got into contention once, but he
- 18:15Speaker 3: happened to win when he got there.
- 18:16Speaker 2: It's the same idea with DFS.
- 18:18Speaker 1: Yeah, and people got to remember too. With golf, Like
- 18:20Speaker 1: I always compared DFS to golf, it's an individual sport.
- 18:23Speaker 1: There's qualifiers, there's way skinning, like getting into a Major
- 18:25Speaker 1: or a Mega or a live final is like this
- 18:27Speaker 1: is the Masters for you know, the Fantasy Golf World Championship.
- 18:30Speaker 1: It's like the biggest thing. There's only fifty people get
- 18:32Speaker 1: to go down this lane and be able to play
- 18:34Speaker 1: in the event, but they had to earn their way
- 18:36Speaker 1: in and so on and so forth. But with golf,
- 18:38Speaker 1: people got to remember, these are the professional golfers at
- 18:40Speaker 1: the highest level. They can skate by and get their
- 18:44Speaker 1: you know, few fifth places a year and keep their
- 18:46Speaker 1: ticket and ride through. But that's cause it's like they're
- 18:48Speaker 1: always in the Mega. A PA event is always a Mega,
- 18:51Speaker 1: and then the Masters is like the main event. It's
- 18:54Speaker 1: like there's a there's levels to it in separators. You
- 18:56Speaker 1: can't skate by in DFS. Somebody told me you before
- 18:59Speaker 1: in NBA, like I'm cashing pretty much daily, and like, well,
- 19:02Speaker 1: you're probably playing bad. Like it should not be like that,
- 19:05Speaker 1: Like you you should have It's not to be rude
- 19:06Speaker 1: or anything, like you should have like a ceiling or
- 19:10Speaker 1: a floor. If you're just min cashing every day, you're
- 19:12Speaker 1: never like have you ever had a sweat? No, it's
- 19:14Speaker 1: always like I just sneak in on the min cash line.
- 19:17Speaker 1: But I at least like cash green is green. That's
- 19:19Speaker 1: bad that like whoever told you that green is green? Yes,
- 19:22Speaker 1: it can't take that away, but it's when you look
- 19:24Speaker 1: at it from a process standpoint, that is not true,
- 19:27Speaker 1: and you're probably playing very poorly because you're not allowing
- 19:30Speaker 1: yourself to have the outcome that you're actually wanting to
- 19:32Speaker 1: achieve when you press enter on that contest.
- 19:35Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that gets that gets back to like
- 19:37Speaker 3: the very first thing that I said that there there
- 19:38Speaker 3: are so many people who have been losing differst players.
- 19:41Speaker 3: Doesn't mean they're gonna be in the future, but who
- 19:43Speaker 3: aren't kind of like admitting to themselves that they they've
- 19:48Speaker 3: been a losing defest player and and that you know
- 19:51Speaker 3: that comment of like I'm cashing every day.
- 19:54Speaker 2: First of all, what does that mean?
- 19:55Speaker 3: Because if you're if you're playing single entries and you're
- 19:57Speaker 3: and you say you're cashing every day, No, you're not
- 20:00Speaker 3: twenty five percent of the field at most cashes in
- 20:02Speaker 3: the contest. There's no chance you're cashing every day unless
- 20:05Speaker 3: you're unless like you have the magic eight ball, and
- 20:08Speaker 3: and in that case, you're gonna be in contention, you're
- 20:11Speaker 3: gonna win tournaments.
- 20:12Speaker 1: Yeah, they're exaggerating the numbers. By the way. It's like
- 20:14Speaker 1: when a dude versus how many have you been with?
- 20:16Speaker 1: People you've been with? It's like some say this way,
- 20:19Speaker 1: some say that way. You're you're literally not cashing every day.
- 20:21Speaker 1: There's just no way.
- 20:22Speaker 3: But I know what they mean, yeah, or or like
- 20:25Speaker 3: I have a buddy who who once told me he
- 20:27Speaker 3: was cashing every day, and what he meant was he
- 20:28Speaker 3: was playing like twenty lineups and at least one.
- 20:30Speaker 2: Was cashing every day.
- 20:31Speaker 3: It's okay, but you're still losing money on the day.
- 20:33Speaker 3: That doesn't it doesn't mean you're cashing on the day.
- 20:35Speaker 3: If you spent one hundred bucks and lost eighty of it,
- 20:38Speaker 3: I wouldn't call that.
- 20:39Speaker 1: Tells you you're winning. So it's fine.
- 20:41Speaker 2: Yeah, it's the it's the old Twitter joke.
- 20:43Speaker 3: But yeah, I think, uh again, like really really great question,
- 20:47Speaker 3: because it shows that you're already in a mindset where
- 20:49Speaker 3: you're trying to learn, you're trying to get better, and
- 20:52Speaker 3: you're trying to, you know, adjust your process, and I
- 20:54Speaker 3: think we we just gave a long answer to it.
- 20:59Speaker 3: I think the best thing I can say is you
- 21:02Speaker 3: don't have to listen to all of it. For one thing,
- 21:04Speaker 3: like maybe pick and choose your your favorite one or
- 21:06Speaker 3: two points.
- 21:07Speaker 2: But overall, the I think.
- 21:09Speaker 3: The best thing I can say is try and simplify
- 21:12Speaker 3: the process as much as possible. Get down to one lineup,
- 21:15Speaker 3: do that well. And then if you start to feel
- 21:18Speaker 3: like you have some moto doing a single entry and
- 21:20Speaker 3: you didn't want to just be a one lineup player,
- 21:22Speaker 3: you want to be good at three entry or twenty max,
- 21:25Speaker 3: get good at one first, and then once you feel
- 21:28Speaker 3: like you've got that down, if you can build one
- 21:30Speaker 3: lineup really, really well, your chances of building three well
- 21:33Speaker 3: are much higher. Your chances of building twenty at a
- 21:35Speaker 3: time well are much higher than if you're struggling to
- 21:38Speaker 3: even just build the one lineup well.
- 21:40Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, And like stat said, a couple things
- 21:42Speaker 1: that said, like the Barbell approach, agree fully on this,
- 21:45Speaker 1: talking about like finish way left all the way up
- 21:47Speaker 1: because tournaments are so top heavy. So I agree with that,
- 21:50Speaker 1: and then statsays long answer. True, but one of the
- 21:52Speaker 1: most important discussions you had in the history of the
- 21:54Speaker 1: show in my opinion. And I know, Alex, you get
- 21:57Speaker 1: you know, your discord going and you get a lot
- 21:59Speaker 1: of good, sharp people in there, and they'll all speak
- 22:02Speaker 1: very highly of that discord, myself included. It's awesome spot
- 22:05Speaker 1: to be if you're trying to learn and get better
- 22:06Speaker 1: at the game. It's advanced, I'm still picking up even
- 22:09Speaker 1: and learning new things. It helps when you know the
- 22:11Speaker 1: game better. And I know you would have the same testimonials,
- 22:14Speaker 1: but again, if you just go to dfsmastermind dot com,
- 22:16Speaker 1: it's it's not what we're saying. It's like you can
- 22:18Speaker 1: see what other people are saying. There's literally two hundred
- 22:22Speaker 1: something plus testimonials. You can just keep scrolling it down
- 22:26Speaker 1: and going all day. So go to the site, check
- 22:28Speaker 1: it out, see what you guys think we're going to
- 22:29Speaker 1: get to this week. But I want to say too, shout.
- 22:33Speaker 3: Out last thing here, Tamba least thing on that is
- 22:35Speaker 3: a lot of the testimonials that you showed have like
- 22:38Speaker 3: the same theme of common which is you've kind of
- 22:41Speaker 3: changed the way that I see DFS.
- 22:42Speaker 2: And then I approach DFS.
- 22:44Speaker 3: That's the most that's probably the most popular feedback that
- 22:48Speaker 3: I get in the discord as well, and I think
- 22:49Speaker 3: it goes to show that like this this question again,
- 22:53Speaker 3: it's so good because it's recognizing that, hey, something in
- 22:55Speaker 3: my process needs to change. And that's exactly what you know,
- 22:58Speaker 3: these people are kind of talking about where it's not
- 23:03Speaker 3: always about like you know, when when you join my discord,
- 23:05Speaker 3: for example, it's not that you're going to become a
- 23:07Speaker 3: winning player because I'm telling you to play this guy
- 23:10Speaker 3: and this guy and they end up and go win
- 23:12Speaker 3: the tournament each and every week. It doesn't happen like that.
- 23:14Speaker 3: What happens instead is you just start to see DFS
- 23:18Speaker 3: in a different way. The game becomes a little bit
- 23:20Speaker 3: simpler in your mind, and I think that that also
- 23:24Speaker 3: just makes it a lot more fun, right like you,
- 23:26Speaker 3: when you feel prepared to answer the question of how
- 23:30Speaker 3: you know what is the best way to attack this slate,
- 23:33Speaker 3: it's more fun to then go build lineups and do
- 23:36Speaker 3: things like that.
- 23:36Speaker 2: So that was just the last point I wanted to
- 23:38Speaker 2: make on it.
- 23:38Speaker 1: You're good and another you know, a very good friend
- 23:40Speaker 1: of ours, James who passed last year Obviously the Big
- 23:43Speaker 1: Guy was of the exact same mindset. That's why we
- 23:45Speaker 1: all got along so much, so why people love the
- 23:47Speaker 1: concept of us all working together and doing these things
- 23:49Speaker 1: and talking about it. But you know, he had the
- 23:51Speaker 1: exact same testimonials tenfold of you know, a thousandfold of
- 23:55Speaker 1: people saying the exact same way. You change the way
- 23:57Speaker 1: I think about playing the game. And that's what we're
- 24:00Speaker 1: trying to do and live on. And we do have
- 24:02Speaker 1: an event coming up for those that don't know or
- 24:03Speaker 1: have missed it, the Big Guy Event. If you need
- 24:05Speaker 1: details on it, reach out to me. But it's gonna
- 24:08Speaker 1: be Friday, August twenty first in Las Vegas, seven thirty
- 24:11Speaker 1: to ten thirty pm at the d Casino and Hotel.
- 24:14Speaker 1: You can go to the site at ship It Nation
- 24:16Speaker 1: dot com, slash the dash Big Dash Guy Dash Event,
- 24:20Speaker 1: or just reach out to me and ask for details.
- 24:23Speaker 1: It's all on the site, but we've got the Detroit Ballroom.
- 24:25Speaker 1: Everyone is welcome. It's not just Shipping Nation only, so
- 24:28Speaker 1: it's the entire DFS community. But he's a guy that
- 24:30Speaker 1: definitely shaped that same type of thinking for many out there.
- 24:33Speaker 1: So shout out to games Last Weight, I gotta say
- 24:36Speaker 1: shout out to Deuces Wild, have a ton of respect
- 24:39Speaker 1: for your game. I haven't seen you on here before,
- 24:41Speaker 1: but I'm sure you've been following along and maybe you're
- 24:43Speaker 1: just gonna say congrats. Really appreciate it, and congrats to
- 24:45Speaker 1: you two out of the three tickets. I know the
- 24:47Speaker 1: avatar is like that. I don't even know what it is,
- 24:49Speaker 1: but it's like a blue purple, hazy thingy like I
- 24:51Speaker 1: don't even know a mutant or something like. I know
- 24:53Speaker 1: exactly what the avatar is when I see it, but
- 24:55Speaker 1: incredible respect for your game. Congrats to you two out
- 24:58Speaker 1: of three. Getting through is huge. Alex K fourteen. I
- 25:01Speaker 1: was talking to him the other day and Pat talked
- 25:02Speaker 1: about Master. He got two through as well. There's some people, man,
- 25:05Speaker 1: it's a tough field. A lot didn't get through. A
- 25:08Speaker 1: lot did, but it's a very tough field. You're going
- 25:10Speaker 1: up against the best of the best. It sucks that
- 25:11Speaker 1: you can't be there. It says vacation blends, and I
- 25:13Speaker 1: know that's the tricky part with August, like even the
- 25:15Speaker 1: big guy event I just threw up. It's hard with that,
- 25:17Speaker 1: but says good to know about playing that course on Monday.
- 25:20Speaker 1: I talked to Alex earlier as well deuces and Alex
- 25:23Speaker 1: said he's trying to make it out because I said
- 25:25Speaker 1: I wasn't sure if he was gonna be able to
- 25:26Speaker 1: make it, he said, but I won't be able to
- 25:27Speaker 1: make it. I won't be able to stay through until Monday. Said,
- 25:30Speaker 1: but that's probably a better thing because that course is
- 25:32Speaker 1: way too hard for me. And I told Pat I
- 25:34Speaker 1: might have to be the caddy man. There's like, no,
- 25:36Speaker 1: I don't have enough balls in the bag. If you'll
- 25:38Speaker 1: bring extras at all, it's tough. But congrats, dus Is
- 25:41Speaker 1: really respect your game and think you're just a great player.
- 25:43Speaker 1: So good luck in that tournament. So thanks respecting as well.
- 25:46Speaker 1: That's awesome and love seeing that stuff. And yeah, I
- 25:49Speaker 1: think this is a good good spot to jump over.
- 25:51Speaker 1: I mean, we did our topic even faster this week.
- 25:53Speaker 1: It was a long win and answered, I think it's
- 25:54Speaker 1: gonna help a ton of people, hopefully it does. If
- 25:56Speaker 1: you guys have questions, you can always reach out. But
- 25:58Speaker 1: let's bring up we've got the rough draft of the
- 26:00Speaker 1: stone real interesting because we still have a few minutes
- 26:03Speaker 1: left before our halfway thirty. We always say like thirty
- 26:05Speaker 1: minutes or less to talk about that stuff. But we
- 26:07Speaker 1: can go on for ages obviously, but crazy like some
- 26:10Speaker 1: of the industry ownership early seems insane on Scotty, like
- 26:14Speaker 1: I don't see it even even ours is high right
- 26:17Speaker 1: now on the rough draft, like I see it much
- 26:18Speaker 1: lower than that. And again we always dial it in
- 26:20Speaker 1: the rough draft kind of just puts it together. And
- 26:22Speaker 1: I think it's because of guys like Xander's way too
- 26:26Speaker 1: low gon like the nine K range we have too
- 26:28Speaker 1: low right now, but literally just got put out like
- 26:30Speaker 1: half hour before we hopped on, so I understand it.
- 26:32Speaker 1: We like to still get something out there and then adjust.
- 26:34Speaker 1: We tell nobody to use it until the very end.
- 26:36Speaker 1: We'll talk through that here. But one of the more
- 26:39Speaker 1: interesting things I know others have commented on in the
- 26:40Speaker 1: past is a lot of other sites have their salary
- 26:43Speaker 1: usage adding up to more than the valid salary that
- 26:47Speaker 1: you're able to use. Talk talk through that a little bit.
- 26:49Speaker 1: I think that's probably a pretty interesting concept to summer.
- 26:51Speaker 1: They don't know what you're what we're really talking about
- 26:53Speaker 1: when we say that.
- 26:54Speaker 3: Well it it's funny, how, you know, we we don't
- 26:57Speaker 3: always plan ahead of like Hey, what's the show''re going
- 27:00Speaker 3: to look like today? And I was actually gonna suggest
- 27:02Speaker 3: I think this week we should actually start with ownership
- 27:04Speaker 3: before we even talk about the golf course and the
- 27:06Speaker 3: field like it. This is this is an ownership and
- 27:09Speaker 3: kind of a price driven week. Where So what you're
- 27:13Speaker 3: alluding to is there are there are major sites around
- 27:16Speaker 3: the industry, well respected, expensive sites around the industry that
- 27:21Speaker 3: are projecting over fifty thousand dollars worth of salary to
- 27:25Speaker 3: be owned. Obviously, that doesn't make sense, right, and so
- 27:28Speaker 3: like if you threw their ownership projections into an optimizer,
- 27:32Speaker 3: it would just fail.
- 27:32Speaker 2: It would say, we can't we.
- 27:34Speaker 3: Can't possibly match this because the lineups can't be built
- 27:36Speaker 3: with this much salary owned. So you know, there's the
- 27:39Speaker 3: fifty thousand dollars cap obviously with drafting. So essentially what
- 27:42Speaker 3: that means is something has to give for most of
- 27:46Speaker 3: the ownership projections around the industry. Either the top guys
- 27:50Speaker 3: are too high, so Scott he shouldn't be, you know,
- 27:53Speaker 3: twenty some percent, Rory shouldn't be twenty some percent alongside
- 27:57Speaker 3: of him. Or if those guys are going to be
- 27:59Speaker 3: that owned, then someone down below needs to be a lot.
- 28:03Speaker 2: More popular than they are, and so I.
- 28:05Speaker 3: Can speak to the ownership that I have over f
- 28:08Speaker 3: ten right now and the ownership that's in my discord.
- 28:12Speaker 2: That'll be more of an announcement coming soon.
- 28:14Speaker 3: But some like where I have it right now is
- 28:18Speaker 3: I've got Scotty and Rory both at eleven percent in
- 28:20Speaker 3: single entries.
- 28:21Speaker 2: That feels too low to me.
- 28:23Speaker 3: But I have nobody under seventy five hundred dollars who's
- 28:27Speaker 3: ten percent or above. And when I look through that,
- 28:30Speaker 3: I don't have anybody down there who I can look
- 28:33Speaker 3: at and say, you know what, this is the guy.
- 28:34Speaker 3: This is the guy who's going to end up ten
- 28:36Speaker 3: to fifteen percent. But I do think that either Scotty
- 28:41Speaker 3: or Rory will be more and they might be more
- 28:43Speaker 3: like fifteen percent each, or one might get to twenty
- 28:45Speaker 3: the other might be around ten percent. And then I
- 28:47Speaker 3: think they're going to be a handful of guys down
- 28:49Speaker 3: below who end up being more popular than their ownership.
- 28:52Speaker 3: I just have a really hard time right now judging
- 28:55Speaker 3: who that's going to be. But I think that gets
- 28:57Speaker 3: into the question of like why is this, why why
- 29:01Speaker 3: is ownership looking so strange in this way?
- 29:04Speaker 2: This week. It's because of the pricing.
- 29:06Speaker 3: What we've seen so far this year is in these
- 29:09Speaker 3: really big, strong field events, like we haven't had a
- 29:12Speaker 3: field like this in any event except a major championship
- 29:16Speaker 3: because that's when we get some of these live guys
- 29:17Speaker 3: like Rom. So what we've seen in those events is
- 29:21Speaker 3: guys like Nikolai Hoygard are sixty three hundred dollars, sixty
- 29:23Speaker 3: five hundred dollars, and there's a five thousand dollars range. Well,
- 29:26Speaker 3: now we have Scotty at fourteen, Rory at twelve, Rom
- 29:30Speaker 3: at eleven and a half, just like the major championships,
- 29:33Speaker 3: except there's no five thousand dollar range, and guys like
- 29:35Speaker 3: Nikolai Hoyard Hoyguard are eight thousand dollars instead of sixty five.
- 29:39Speaker 3: And so you just have like the regular pricing for
- 29:44Speaker 3: the value range as if this is the you know,
- 29:48Speaker 3: as if we're playing Detroit Golf Club this week and
- 29:50Speaker 3: the Scottish Open. But then you also have all of
- 29:54Speaker 3: the best players where the top of the price is
- 29:58Speaker 3: fourteen thousand, instead of what we see at those events
- 30:01Speaker 3: like last week, where you know, there are maybe three
- 30:03Speaker 3: guys at ten k, but everyone's under eleven so it's
- 30:06Speaker 3: just a really extreme pricing. Where they they kind of
- 30:09Speaker 3: left all of the value range is if this is
- 30:12Speaker 3: a regular event and doesn't have that top end field,
- 30:15Speaker 3: but they didn't change the top end pricing, and so
- 30:16Speaker 3: it's just it's gonna be really really difficult for people
- 30:19Speaker 3: to build Scotti lineups. And if people do go to Scotty,
- 30:22Speaker 3: if people do go to ram or Roary more than
- 30:25Speaker 3: what we're currently projecting, it means there's gonna be some
- 30:28Speaker 3: surprises down in the value range. And again, like I
- 30:30Speaker 3: just have no idea who those who's those surprises are
- 30:34Speaker 3: actually gonna be.
- 30:35Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you said, well, like the seven K range,
- 30:37Speaker 1: it still fits a bunch of different builds. Like you know,
- 30:40Speaker 1: Pat and I went through it yesterday. You could see
- 30:41Speaker 1: like obviously all these guys whoever becomes the favorite in here,
- 30:44Speaker 1: and we've got some of them at double digits that
- 30:46Speaker 1: I do agree with right now, Like I think Tom
- 30:48Speaker 1: Kim and Jaikara and those guys are going to show
- 30:50Speaker 1: up that way. That's fine. Some others could catch a boost,
- 30:53Speaker 1: like Wallace typically gets projected well everywhere we still haven't projected.
- 30:56Speaker 1: I think that'll come up more as optimizers take a
- 30:58Speaker 1: hold of this, but maybe not as high. But I
- 31:00Speaker 1: guess the bigger thing for me, and like obviously writing Fitzpatrick,
- 31:03Speaker 1: they always get loved. Ho Guard's gonna get the Hogarth's price,
- 31:06Speaker 1: by the way, just doesn't matter price. Guy nine K,
- 31:08Speaker 1: cad Priceman, sixty five hundred people play them, and that's fine.
- 31:11Speaker 1: They you know, great player. But just to note it
- 31:13Speaker 1: where I think ours is currently wrong. A couple callouts
- 31:16Speaker 1: and we'll make adjustments. But I think, like obviously these
- 31:18Speaker 1: nine K guys are all too low the spread, the
- 31:21Speaker 1: idea is here. I get it of like, okay, these
- 31:24Speaker 1: three will be somewhat owned, these guys will be more
- 31:27Speaker 1: owned than them. These guys will really be the poppers.
- 31:30Speaker 1: Like yes, people are gonna go back to god her
- 31:31Speaker 1: Up and Clark with how they've been playing, and you
- 31:33Speaker 1: can even play them both together. And man and I
- 31:35Speaker 1: went back and forth on like one verse the other,
- 31:37Speaker 1: playing both, mixing them in all these different things. But
- 31:40Speaker 1: I'm gonna I've went back and forth on these things
- 31:43Speaker 1: so many times. I'm just taking my hard stand this week.
- 31:46Speaker 1: I just don't see any world where Scotty's more owned
- 31:49Speaker 1: than Rory it's two thousand bucks. It goes a long way.
- 31:53Speaker 1: The reports are out saying Rory's gonna be good and
- 31:55Speaker 1: all this like how good he looks and blah blah blah.
- 31:57Speaker 1: Scotty couldn't close the playoffs the short pot.
- 32:00Speaker 2: I don't.
- 32:00Speaker 1: I not that that matters. I'm just noting it. Like
- 32:03Speaker 1: to me, it's way more about the fourteen K and
- 32:05Speaker 1: the two K drop plus the want to play the
- 32:08Speaker 1: nine K guys is like, if I'm just comparing those two,
- 32:11Speaker 1: I think we could see like seventeen nineteen or fifteen
- 32:16Speaker 1: seventeen or something like that, and I think rom could
- 32:19Speaker 1: be a little bit lower. And then I think we
- 32:20Speaker 1: see a big boost to this crew up the middle here.
- 32:24Speaker 3: Yeah, Rory has also won here and after last year,
- 32:28Speaker 3: like now everyone's on the on the idea that, hey,
- 32:30Speaker 3: you know what, this is a bomber's course. So I
- 32:32Speaker 3: think I agree in those those two thousand dollars really
- 32:34Speaker 3: do come into effect. I'm guessing it's going to be
- 32:37Speaker 3: more like Rory fifteen to twenty and Scottie a little
- 32:41Speaker 3: bit under fifteen is probably where I'm gonna end up
- 32:43Speaker 3: having them. But I also agree with you that that
- 32:46Speaker 3: trio of Xander, Oberg and Tommy, they've got to go up,
- 32:50Speaker 3: especially I think Xander and Oberg because again, people know
- 32:53Speaker 3: this is a bomber's course, and so I think those
- 32:55Speaker 3: guys will be over twenty percent, maybe even like pushing
- 32:57Speaker 3: thirty percent. And obviously, like those two things are connected, right,
- 33:02Speaker 3: The Scotti and the Rory ownership and the Xander through
- 33:06Speaker 3: Tommy ownership are very much connected.
- 33:08Speaker 1: Right.
- 33:09Speaker 3: If people are paying all the way up for Scotty
- 33:11Speaker 3: and Rory, they can't get to that upper nine k range.
- 33:15Speaker 3: One of the ways people would feel better about skipping
- 33:17Speaker 3: those two most expensive guys is if they just decide
- 33:20Speaker 3: to load up on the nine K range. And so
- 33:22Speaker 3: obviously that ownership is connected, and that's something people should
- 33:27Speaker 3: remember as well.
- 33:28Speaker 1: Yeah, one hundred percent, I'm glad you brought that up,
- 33:29Speaker 1: because that's another thing too, Like I know, like I
- 33:31Speaker 1: think min Wu and Kiddiyama and even Jay, like some
- 33:33Speaker 1: of these guys will get a boost here too. We're
- 33:35Speaker 1: only giving it to hatt and on our stuff right now,
- 33:38Speaker 1: but I know as soon as these pop up, it's
- 33:40Speaker 1: because look, if you got Scotty at this number with
- 33:42Speaker 1: seventy two hundred remaining. Not many people are clicking min
- 33:46Speaker 1: Wu in and leaving sixty nine hundred dollars. Like if
- 33:48Speaker 1: they're gonna get a second die in, they're gonna go
- 33:50Speaker 1: with someone they really want versus And I'm not saying
- 33:53Speaker 1: they shouldn't want min Wo. I'm noting just perspective, like
- 33:55Speaker 1: how you'll play it versus if someone's like, well, I'm
- 33:57Speaker 1: gonna go with the approach that I like, And I
- 34:00Speaker 1: don't even know if I want Hatton because I'm loading
- 34:02Speaker 1: up on these guys now I think they'll definitely touch
- 34:03Speaker 1: over twenty. But now it becomes like the min Wu
- 34:07Speaker 1: hoguard and still have seventy seven. I can get another
- 34:10Speaker 1: eight K guy in a low seven. I can get
- 34:12Speaker 1: another nine K guy and a six K guy like this,
- 34:15Speaker 1: These are the types of builds where I think that's
- 34:17Speaker 1: where it's not saying it's the good build. It's to
- 34:19Speaker 1: say that's what I see in ownership, where right now
- 34:23Speaker 1: you're not seeing it. It's all connected. Like you said,
- 34:25Speaker 1: you are gonna see guys like min Wu pop up
- 34:28Speaker 1: and Kiddieyama and the bombers in there that they get
- 34:30Speaker 1: more love when these numbers go up, because that just
- 34:34Speaker 1: allows them to fit into the lineups better. So where
- 34:36Speaker 1: did you want to start for the chalk build this week?
- 34:39Speaker 1: It's like as low as got her up or do
- 34:41Speaker 1: you think it's up to Zander? Where are you at?
- 34:43Speaker 2: Well?
- 34:43Speaker 3: So I actually before we do Jordan asked about like
- 34:46Speaker 3: what we expect for god up and window ownership, And
- 34:48Speaker 3: I think this is a this is a question that
- 34:49Speaker 3: I'm wondering myself because it's you know, we talk all
- 34:52Speaker 3: the time about like the post win ownership discount. I
- 34:56Speaker 3: don't know how much we're gonna get on these guys
- 34:59Speaker 3: in that regar, but I think it's a valid question.
- 35:01Speaker 3: I think, like you know, Wyndham was very open about
- 35:05Speaker 3: how exhausted he was at the Travelers and how he
- 35:07Speaker 3: couldn't wait to finish and just rest, and so like
- 35:10Speaker 3: it's I actually wasn't going to be surprised if he
- 35:13Speaker 3: decided to not play this week, give himself an extra
- 35:16Speaker 3: week at home, and then just come over for the open.
- 35:19Speaker 3: I think it's probably a good sign that he's back
- 35:21Speaker 3: right away, and you know he's saying, you know what,
- 35:23Speaker 3: I am, I am ready for this and I want
- 35:25Speaker 3: to just kind of continue this momentum.
- 35:27Speaker 2: I think the.
- 35:30Speaker 3: I have significantly less concern about like a post win slump,
- 35:36Speaker 3: if you will, from from got Her Up, just because
- 35:38Speaker 3: this was his fifth win. It wasn't like it was
- 35:41Speaker 3: some you know, huge win. It wasn't like a major
- 35:44Speaker 3: championship career change or anything like. He's already had bigger
- 35:47Speaker 3: wins than the one he just had, and so I
- 35:49Speaker 3: think in that regard, he's good to go defending champ.
- 35:54Speaker 3: I think he's probably the more likely to get ownership,
- 35:57Speaker 3: but also the more likely to just continue to play
- 35:59Speaker 3: really really well. Do you have any any kind of
- 36:01Speaker 3: additional thoughts there.
- 36:03Speaker 1: I definitely think they both get to twenty and it's like,
- 36:06Speaker 1: you know, if not really close, because at the end
- 36:08Speaker 1: of the day, this is an example I just threw
- 36:10Speaker 1: up on the screen with like some of the guys
- 36:11Speaker 1: we're seeing from the Bomber narrative and also some of
- 36:13Speaker 1: the ones get you know, clicked all the time, and
- 36:16Speaker 1: this is putting got Her Up in second. If I
- 36:19Speaker 1: just pull Pottgeiter and Xander, who I think are just
- 36:22Speaker 1: I'm just picking two like semi popular options, you now
- 36:26Speaker 1: get down to penge Reid, who you know, like everyone
- 36:32Speaker 1: fits Chakar let's fill it out with it. If it
- 36:34Speaker 1: actually is Chakar, we'll see. But there's Penge, there's Reed,
- 36:37Speaker 1: and there's Tom Kim. All those guys could get love
- 36:40Speaker 1: at that range. To me, this is way more of
- 36:42Speaker 1: like what the standard chalk build looks like. It projects
- 36:45Speaker 1: out well, it's pretty easy to get to this and
- 36:48Speaker 1: feel comfortable and play. Got her up and Clark and
- 36:52Speaker 1: I think like there's still gonna be Look, Ludwig has
- 36:55Speaker 1: not showed up on Sunday's spoiler alert. Shane Lowry has
- 36:59Speaker 1: not showed up on Sundays either. Contention scores. You know this,
- 37:02Speaker 1: but it's been crazy to see how that plays out,
- 37:04Speaker 1: but just noting it like Xander, I get it. So
- 37:07Speaker 1: I could see Fits coming down. I could see Rom
- 37:11Speaker 1: coming down. I see both these coming down. I see
- 37:12Speaker 1: him lower than Rory and him slightly like somewhere in
- 37:15Speaker 1: this reign. I like what you said, fifteen to twenty,
- 37:17Speaker 1: just below fifteen. If Scott He's gonna be below fifteen,
- 37:21Speaker 1: then I gotta think Rom's below fifteen. So that's the
- 37:24Speaker 1: case there. But I could see even like Fits coming
- 37:26Speaker 1: down some because it's Xander's got good history and obviously
- 37:30Speaker 1: projects well better than you know Fitzpatrick. All of that,
- 37:34Speaker 1: people will play Ludvig, but maybe not as much the other.
- 37:37Speaker 1: The one thing I will say though, is Fleetwood is
- 37:39Speaker 1: another interesting wrinkle. But by the way, this could be
- 37:43Speaker 1: this only because people always love Fleetwood. He's projected very
- 37:48Speaker 1: well at other sites and things like that, so I
- 37:50Speaker 1: think like there's a potential that you see Fleetwood be
- 37:54Speaker 1: in some of these builds too, And then people do
- 37:55Speaker 1: make the decision to say, I'm not going to got
- 37:57Speaker 1: her up off the win and I know he won
- 37:59Speaker 1: here last year, but whatever. But remember god Arp won
- 38:00Speaker 1: the Scottish Open this exact tournament last year. Nobody wanted
- 38:04Speaker 1: to play him at the Open because well, now it's
- 38:05Speaker 1: a major, there's no way he's gonna come through the
- 38:07Speaker 1: next week. And then he crushed it again at the
- 38:09Speaker 1: Open and was needed. So this is I don't know,
- 38:12Speaker 1: this is like a couple different chalk versions, but to me,
- 38:14Speaker 1: the constants are somewhere in this, like trio of the
- 38:19Speaker 1: upper sevens and lower eights yep, mixed with the nine
- 38:22Speaker 1: k guys pick your poison, and then some sort of
- 38:24Speaker 1: landing spot of Chakara Kim whatever. It just tells us
- 38:29Speaker 1: that what we already know the AK range overlooked outside
- 38:32Speaker 1: of maybe adding like min Wu and Hatten in there
- 38:34Speaker 1: a little bit. But that makes me think too, And
- 38:37Speaker 1: I will bring this up because it's a Fleetwood point.
- 38:39Speaker 1: Fleetwood's fine and ninety four, but we've seen where Fleetwood's
- 38:42Speaker 1: been priced in this range before at majors, and people
- 38:46Speaker 1: are like, there's no way people skip over Fleetwood, and
- 38:48Speaker 1: they don't. But then when he comes in at like
- 38:51Speaker 1: twelve or thirteen, they're like, oh, eh, he didn't get
- 38:54Speaker 1: as much as I thought. It's because they just couldn't play,
- 38:56Speaker 1: Like I don't know if maybe this number is right,
- 38:59Speaker 1: maybe comes up a little down a little I'm not
- 39:00Speaker 1: sure what you have him at, but it could be
- 39:03Speaker 1: more like twelve to fifteen for Hatten, and he just
- 39:06Speaker 1: gets stuck in the middle because you know, not a
- 39:08Speaker 1: lot of people are gonna flip what are you gonna
- 39:10Speaker 1: flip the bill to? Like, not a lot of people
- 39:11Speaker 1: are gonna want I don't know, Chikara and Fleetwood becomes Hatton,
- 39:15Speaker 1: and you know you can find the hundred bucks. I
- 39:19Speaker 1: guess to go to somebody else, but I don't know,
- 39:21Speaker 1: Like I just don't see a lot of people landing
- 39:22Speaker 1: on this over the Fleetwood version. What do you think?
- 39:24Speaker 3: Yeah, So the first thing I'll say is I don't
- 39:26Speaker 3: expect Wyndham and got Her Up to get to twenty percent.
- 39:29Speaker 3: I think got Her Up has a much better chance
- 39:30Speaker 3: to get to twenty. But like, I'll be surprised if
- 39:32Speaker 3: Windham's even at fifteen. And the main reason why I
- 39:36Speaker 3: think that actually isn't the the post win ownership discount.
- 39:40Speaker 3: It's that I just expect so much ownership to go
- 39:42Speaker 3: to that trio of Xander, Oberg and Tommy, and there's
- 39:45Speaker 3: just not enough to go around where all of those
- 39:47Speaker 3: guys get to twenty. All of that said, like, I
- 39:51Speaker 3: think what we're seeing is okay. We know that people
- 39:53Speaker 3: can try to get to Scouty and Rory. We know
- 39:55Speaker 3: there are a lot of guys in this nine K
- 39:57Speaker 3: range that you can kind of pick and choose from.
- 39:59Speaker 3: But the constant for both of us is that Nikolai, Alex, Fitzpatrick,
- 40:04Speaker 3: and Rayton are going to be popular. Those three they
- 40:08Speaker 3: fit any type of build, Like, even if you start
- 40:10Speaker 3: with Rory, you can get two or three of those guys.
- 40:12Speaker 2: Even if you start with Scottie.
- 40:14Speaker 3: You can get one or two of those guys if
- 40:16Speaker 3: you're willing to dive into the six K range after that.
- 40:18Speaker 3: So I think those three are kind of the quote
- 40:22Speaker 3: unquote chalk build. And then from there it's just okay, well,
- 40:25Speaker 3: who do I surround these guys with? Do I go
- 40:28Speaker 3: with a more balanced nine K range lineup? Do I
- 40:31Speaker 3: try to get up to one of the studs. And
- 40:32Speaker 3: we'll see different ways of that, but these three are
- 40:35Speaker 3: kind of the centerpiece to any type of lineup.
- 40:37Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess that could be right, Like I said,
- 40:39Speaker 1: maybe it's more like fifteen to twenty now that you
- 40:41Speaker 1: say it like that, because there is different combos. I
- 40:43Speaker 1: just pulled up another one here of Xander, Tommy and Pockeater,
- 40:47Speaker 1: like again, just using some of the popular options that
- 40:50Speaker 1: don't go to those two, and because there is so
- 40:52Speaker 1: many other nine K guys that will pull a little
- 40:54Speaker 1: from them. So I think just building the best versions
- 40:56Speaker 1: of those. But then to your point, what's the Rory
- 40:58Speaker 1: version look like? Oh wait, I still have seven K
- 41:01Speaker 1: so I didn't even Oh and then some I'll say
- 41:03Speaker 1: whatever whatever, But I didn't even have to pull pot Eater.
- 41:06Speaker 1: And it's like I still have seventy two hundred. I
- 41:10Speaker 1: can get to whoever they choose here. Let's say it's
- 41:13Speaker 1: Rasmus or something or yeah, I know, yes, I Mayo
- 41:15Speaker 1: mentioned Perez and I saw him get a little bit
- 41:18Speaker 1: of love in some other places. If it's like these two,
- 41:20Speaker 1: it projects only like eight points less, but that's not
- 41:23Speaker 1: gonna matter. It's a medium. But it still just shows
- 41:25Speaker 1: you the idea of Okay, do you want Fleetwood, sorry
- 41:30Speaker 1: Xander Fleetwood and pot Gater, or do you want Rory,
- 41:34Speaker 1: Rasmus and Perez. It's still keeping the constant of these
- 41:38Speaker 1: three being in the mix.
- 41:40Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 41:40Speaker 3: The next thing I'll say here is like one of
- 41:42Speaker 3: my main kind of ideas I guess for ownership this
- 41:48Speaker 3: week was that this is the type of tournament where
- 41:52Speaker 3: people are always gonna ask themselves, Okay, well what happened
- 41:55Speaker 3: last year?
- 41:56Speaker 2: And what happened last year?
- 41:57Speaker 3: We saw kind of the introduction to writing, and we
- 42:00Speaker 3: saw Marco Penge up in contention, and we know that
- 42:04Speaker 3: this is a bomber's course. I think a lot of
- 42:06Speaker 3: people are going to ask who is this year's Marco Penge?
- 42:10Speaker 3: And when they asked that question, who are they going
- 42:13Speaker 3: to land on and I went through like every single
- 42:16Speaker 3: Deep World Tour guy, and I will say it's kind
- 42:19Speaker 3: of hard to find this year's Penge. There isn't a
- 42:21Speaker 3: guy who's been consistently good in and around contention who's
- 42:26Speaker 3: super super long on the Deep World Tour. The reason
- 42:29Speaker 3: that Jaikara is so popular, or is such a like
- 42:33Speaker 3: popular guy to at least talk about this week is
- 42:35Speaker 3: because he's got two wins and nine top twenty fives
- 42:41Speaker 3: this year already, including a top twenty top twenty one
- 42:45Speaker 3: finish at the Puerto Rico Open in March. He's won
- 42:49Speaker 3: two of his last three starts. He's somewhat long off
- 42:52Speaker 3: the tee, but not like a Bomber. I think he's
- 42:54Speaker 3: definitely the closest to this year's Penge, which is why
- 42:57Speaker 3: he's probably the most likely to get some ownership. But
- 42:59Speaker 3: then you've like Aora, who has had some really good performances.
- 43:05Speaker 2: He's also got some.
- 43:06Speaker 3: Really really bad performances, so like crazy volatile player, he
- 43:09Speaker 3: is long off the team. Maybe he's this year's Pinge.
- 43:13Speaker 3: Then you've got Duplessis, whose same idea, like he's not
- 43:16Speaker 3: as long but also has some really good finishes some
- 43:21Speaker 3: really bad finishes, so like he could wreck your lineup,
- 43:23Speaker 3: but he could also be the guy who ends up
- 43:25Speaker 3: in contention from the Deeper World Tour. Then you have
- 43:28Speaker 3: two other like really really long guys who haven't played
- 43:31Speaker 3: as well this year, and one of the reasons why
- 43:32Speaker 3: they haven't played as well because their iron game sucks.
- 43:35Speaker 2: And that's Alejandro del Rey and then linn Berg.
- 43:38Speaker 3: So they like, as I was going through this kind
- 43:41Speaker 3: of list of saying, all right, who's this year's pinge
- 43:44Speaker 3: that people are gonna play at a much higher rate
- 43:46Speaker 3: than projection models are going to tell them to play,
- 43:48Speaker 3: It's like I'll project them at fifteen percent when everyone
- 43:50Speaker 3: else is projecting them at five percent. We don't really
- 43:53Speaker 3: see who that guy's going to be. Chakr is probably
- 43:55Speaker 3: my best guess, maybe Ayora next, But there aren't There
- 44:00Speaker 3: definitely isn't like a clear one to one for who
- 44:02Speaker 3: this year's panges And that was kind of disappointing on
- 44:05Speaker 3: mine because I wanted to have that kind of like
- 44:08Speaker 3: ownership advantage and now it's a lot tougher to actually find.
- 44:10Speaker 1: Well also too, I find like sometimes that's the thing
- 44:13Speaker 1: is everybody's looking for, like this year someone and what
- 44:16Speaker 1: if it's not any of them, Like what if the
- 44:17Speaker 1: board is like a balanced build that's like not including
- 44:20Speaker 1: those guys or whatever. And I also wanted to see too,
- 44:22Speaker 1: like another just a funny example, like where's it at here?
- 44:26Speaker 1: I had it up earlier. I'm just trying to find
- 44:28Speaker 1: it again. Three strokes and he blew the field out there.
- 44:34Speaker 1: It looks like outside of Yeah, so Chakar just crushed
- 44:38Speaker 1: it at this Italia event at the end of June,
- 44:41Speaker 1: right he ended up winning, and he shot sixty six
- 44:43Speaker 1: sixty five, sixty five sixty four. Matt Wallace came in second.
- 44:48Speaker 1: Neeman was there, but like Aora was fifth at that event,
- 44:51Speaker 1: right behind him, like few strokes back. Then you go
- 44:54Speaker 1: to the event before that in June, the Kalim Open,
- 44:57Speaker 1: which Chakara won, Lindell and third place right behind him,
- 45:01Speaker 1: like three strokes back Aora again, a Or is the
- 45:04Speaker 1: same price bombs it if we're playing bombers here, and
- 45:07Speaker 1: he might be one third of his ownership. And it's
- 45:09Speaker 1: just an example where if you see that or it
- 45:11Speaker 1: lands in some lineups, I'm fine with it. It's if
- 45:13Speaker 1: it doesn't work out, it doesn't work out, but just noting,
- 45:15Speaker 1: then I think that's where things get so confused. And
- 45:18Speaker 1: then and then also I'll use your example from last week.
- 45:20Speaker 1: I thought it was a really good one. I heard
- 45:21Speaker 1: people comment on it as well. Was like the Novak
- 45:25Speaker 1: thing that you talked about. It's like, yes, a game
- 45:28Speaker 1: might be better, but is that like, yes, Chakara closed
- 45:31Speaker 1: on those two events and won, but Aora came third
- 45:34Speaker 1: and fifth in those events. It's like, could he have
- 45:36Speaker 1: won those Yes, it's like very possible that he could
- 45:38Speaker 1: have done that. It's so on. So maybe the one
- 45:40Speaker 1: that he lost by eight strike Chaikaa blew at the
- 45:42Speaker 1: field in the most recent one by eight strokes. I think,
- 45:44Speaker 1: so my point being, you know, maybe you wouldn't have
- 45:47Speaker 1: won that one, but he's just he's right, there's my point.
- 45:49Speaker 1: Still playing some really good golf, but people just so automatic,
- 45:53Speaker 1: right to go to the well two wins, like that's who,
- 45:55Speaker 1: here's what the guy's third and fifth, because like we
- 45:57Speaker 1: always say, you you never remember the guys that finished
- 45:59Speaker 1: third and fifth, But in pgad Fast, we kind of
- 46:02Speaker 1: want the guys that nobody's remembering because like, well kind
- 46:04Speaker 1: of remembering that he did finish almost identical to him.
- 46:07Speaker 1: He costs almost the same and if I need leverage
- 46:10Speaker 1: in my lineup, that might be a good spot where
- 46:12Speaker 1: I could go to and get pretty much the same
- 46:14Speaker 1: situation for a little bit less money. They're actually funny enough.
- 46:19Speaker 1: I think they're teeing off together. I think you're in
- 46:22Speaker 1: the same group.
- 46:24Speaker 3: That is interesting on Lin Dell for for a moment,
- 46:28Speaker 3: like he's probably been the most consistent performer on the
- 46:32Speaker 3: on the dep World Tour this year, or at least
- 46:34Speaker 3: one of the most consistent, but he's not long. In fact,
- 46:38Speaker 3: he's like he will he will lose considerable strokes in
- 46:41Speaker 3: driving distance to this field. So I don't think there's
- 46:45Speaker 3: any chance that he's the guy who gets steamed and
- 46:48Speaker 3: is popular, But that might make him, you know, one
- 46:50Speaker 3: of the best contrarian options if if you still want
- 46:52Speaker 3: to go to a deeper World Tour guy. I stump
- 46:56Speaker 3: was in here asking like how many euros is too
- 46:58Speaker 3: many euros? I think if you're asking, like, are you
- 47:01Speaker 3: counting you know, Oberg and Rory and Tommy as as
- 47:06Speaker 3: heroes that you can play or are you talking about
- 47:08Speaker 3: like deeper World Tour guys because they're I think you
- 47:10Speaker 3: definitely want to want to limit yourself because I don't again, like,
- 47:14Speaker 3: I don't see anyone at the same class of where
- 47:18Speaker 3: Penge was last year at this time in the season
- 47:21Speaker 3: where Righting was. Like it fast forward a year from now,
- 47:24Speaker 3: I don't see any of these guys having as successful
- 47:27Speaker 3: of a year as Wrighton has had on the PGA Tour.
- 47:30Speaker 3: And so maybe that'll be wrong, maybe I'll be proven
- 47:32Speaker 3: wrong obviously, but I don't think that they are quite
- 47:36Speaker 3: as prepared as as those two were a year ago today.
- 47:40Speaker 1: Yeah, one thing I don't think enough gets talked about
- 47:43Speaker 1: enough too, is like this, and I know statues brought up.
- 47:45Speaker 1: I've talked about it for years, but like the fields,
- 47:47Speaker 1: we know the fields are weaker. I'm just saying, like
- 47:49Speaker 1: this matters when you translate. It's like, okay, they're playing
- 47:51Speaker 1: in field rating and owgr like aside, I know we
- 47:54Speaker 1: can make fun of that for days. My point being like,
- 47:56Speaker 1: it's not at least they're how their apples are. It's
- 47:59Speaker 1: they may not be the best tasting apples, the ones
- 48:01Speaker 1: we would enjoy, but we're like, okay, it's apples to
- 48:03Speaker 1: apples on their website to at least consider this and
- 48:07Speaker 1: it will show you that the field ratings are right
- 48:09Speaker 1: on there, and then you can go to like, okay,
- 48:11Speaker 1: but what are we up against this week? I mean
- 48:13Speaker 1: literally like Scottie Rory, Fitzpatrick, god her Up, et cetera. Yes,
- 48:18Speaker 1: you need some of these value plays to make it
- 48:19Speaker 1: all work. But I think people just translating like second
- 48:22Speaker 1: place in this tournament means they're gonna come over and
- 48:23Speaker 1: do well at this one. Will some of them be
- 48:26Speaker 1: up there? Yes, but some of the times you are
- 48:27Speaker 1: picking like a needle in a haystack, you named off
- 48:29Speaker 1: like ten that it could be the next guy. And
- 48:32Speaker 1: that's the other thing as well. So it's tricky from
- 48:34Speaker 1: that perspective when you think about it.
- 48:36Speaker 3: Man, imagine telling someone two months ago that Wyndham Clark
- 48:39Speaker 3: would be fifth in the world right now.
- 48:41Speaker 1: Well, that's that's what I mean.
- 48:43Speaker 2: Like, that's crazy.
- 48:45Speaker 1: Come on, that's just you know Michael Block stuff, Like
- 48:49Speaker 1: you know, you just see like him going on about
- 48:51Speaker 1: did you see the one recently where you made the
- 48:53Speaker 1: par and went like so crazy about it. It's like, dude,
- 48:56Speaker 1: you made a par It's like you're not even doing
- 48:58Speaker 1: anything and it becomes like a big talking.
- 48:59Speaker 2: Point and so I can't stand that guy.
- 49:02Speaker 1: Oh I can't either. How did this go? By the way,
- 49:04Speaker 1: I know what happened with the result, but how what
- 49:06Speaker 1: he said? We need an update on the bet? How
- 49:08Speaker 1: did it end out? Did you have to?
- 49:10Speaker 3: It ended with with Stump sending me some money and
- 49:12Speaker 3: that money will go into an open Qualify Open Championship
- 49:18Speaker 3: giveaway and and uh, I know cat guys doing a
- 49:21Speaker 3: giveaway as well, so like that that money will be
- 49:24Speaker 3: in there.
- 49:25Speaker 2: Cabusa is doing it as well.
- 49:26Speaker 3: Rhodomania on Draftking, So yeah, there's gonna be a lot
- 49:30Speaker 3: of money in the in the Open Championship giveaway, in
- 49:33Speaker 3: the in the Black discord.
- 49:34Speaker 1: I think, uh, Rhodomania another one. I wouldn't say underrated.
- 49:37Speaker 1: A lot of people knew Rodomania's but man, what a
- 49:39Speaker 1: good player as well, and I think made it through
- 49:43Speaker 1: with at least one, if not multiples to the Fantasy
- 49:45Speaker 1: Golf World Championship as well. I gotta, I gotta look.
- 49:47Speaker 1: But it was a crazy battle down the stretch. There
- 49:49Speaker 1: was a lot of money shifting, and then of course
- 49:51Speaker 1: with the ten points at the end of you know,
- 49:54Speaker 1: up or down however it shakes out. That was another
- 49:56Speaker 1: thing also.
- 49:57Speaker 2: I can't.
- 49:57Speaker 3: I honestly can't remember the last time that, like I
- 49:59Speaker 3: was in con tension for a takedown or for a
- 50:02Speaker 3: ticket and a satellite, and he wasn't one of the
- 50:04Speaker 3: guys I was battling.
- 50:05Speaker 2: He's just he's always around leader boards.
- 50:07Speaker 1: It's crazy, especially in the satellites. Rhodomania, I think, can't
- 50:11Speaker 1: Fade Me got in another one that's just always right
- 50:13Speaker 1: there in those like I just I think that's a tell. Also,
- 50:17Speaker 1: by the way, it's I know it's like a bias
- 50:18Speaker 1: because we're good at them as well. But if you're
- 50:20Speaker 1: good at satellites, I think you're good all around. Like
- 50:24Speaker 1: if you have high success in satellites, I mean, obviously
- 50:27Speaker 1: it's correlated, but I'm just saying because then you get
- 50:28Speaker 1: into the next tournament and all that. But I will
- 50:30Speaker 1: say I think the best of the more unknown players,
- 50:36Speaker 1: like again, like obviously you're gonna find mock Lovin and
- 50:38Speaker 1: Uticautan guys like that and all the satellites. But I'm
- 50:40Speaker 1: talking about like the can't Fade Me is the Rodomania's yourself.
- 50:43Speaker 1: There's tons of others I'm just noting, but those that
- 50:45Speaker 1: compete and contend in satellites often typically are really good
- 50:50Speaker 1: DFS players that I would focus on and see how
- 50:52Speaker 1: they play a satellite and review that, because that's not
- 50:55Speaker 1: like almost nothing else. You can say, oh, I know
- 50:57Speaker 1: this poker player is amazing. I might be able to
- 51:00Speaker 1: review if they do content somewhere of like showing me
- 51:02Speaker 1: their hand history review. But you could watch them all
- 51:05Speaker 1: day and only get to see the hands that they
- 51:07Speaker 1: show or that have to be turned over, versus in
- 51:10Speaker 1: the you know, in DFS you can go see like
- 51:13Speaker 1: exactly what somebody played and figure it out. And even
- 51:16Speaker 1: with the sites, you can go back and look and
- 51:18Speaker 1: do reviews and be able to see what people are
- 51:21Speaker 1: doing if you weren't in the contest, Like how often
- 51:24Speaker 1: are you gonna get that opportunity to be able to
- 51:26Speaker 1: put the time in? So I think that's incredible as well.
- 51:28Speaker 3: Yeah, I think this this point about satellite is a
- 51:30Speaker 3: really good when status alluding to it in the in
- 51:34Speaker 3: the chat, but like read it, yeah satellite or the
- 51:38Speaker 3: ultimate Barbier approach, But I was I was actually referring
- 51:40Speaker 3: to his next one that's second and last pays the same,
- 51:43Speaker 3: where like when you're playing a satellite, there is no.
- 51:49Speaker 2: There's no urge whatsoever to just.
- 51:52Speaker 3: Give yourself a better chance at at cashing it and
- 51:54Speaker 3: playing it safe, like you you absolutely have to go
- 51:58Speaker 3: for first place. And I think that that just puts
- 52:01Speaker 3: you in a mindset more often where you're accustomed to
- 52:04Speaker 3: making that type of high risk hygh reward decision all
- 52:06Speaker 3: the time that it's then easier to do in the
- 52:08Speaker 3: actual contest where you should still be playing it that way.
- 52:12Speaker 3: But you do have, you know, that little voice in
- 52:14Speaker 3: your head that's saying, well, I you know, especially like
- 52:16Speaker 3: if you win a ticket right like now you're playing
- 52:19Speaker 3: at stakes that you're not accustomed to and am in cash,
- 52:22Speaker 3: will like it'll give you more money than you would
- 52:24Speaker 3: invest for the rest of the month outside of that contest.
- 52:28Speaker 3: It's therefore like very tempting to play a little bit
- 52:32Speaker 3: for the men cash you know you shouldn't. The more
- 52:34Speaker 3: you're playing satellites, the more you're getting accustomed to that
- 52:37Speaker 3: type of strategy, the less likely you are to then
- 52:39Speaker 3: go make the mistake when you're actually in that contest
- 52:42Speaker 3: or in any other you know, single entury, major contest, whatever.
- 52:45Speaker 3: So I think it does does a really nice job
- 52:48Speaker 3: of kind of preparing you for that. Also shout out
- 52:50Speaker 3: to cat Guy and Lassachusetts Stump as well. All these
- 52:54Speaker 3: guys have kind of been in these satellites all the time,
- 52:57Speaker 3: and certainly I would like to think that that's part
- 52:59Speaker 3: of our m fluence, right Like they're in the discord,
- 53:01Speaker 3: they're watching Leverage Lane each and every week, they're hearing
- 53:04Speaker 3: us talk about it. But I also think they all
- 53:06Speaker 3: have done a really good job of not just like
- 53:09Speaker 3: earlier we talked about how like you can kind of
- 53:11Speaker 3: borrow someone else's strategy, and they might borrow elements of
- 53:14Speaker 3: a strategy, but then they're also kind of really coming
- 53:16Speaker 3: up with their own process, their own lanes, and I
- 53:19Speaker 3: think that that kind of like harmony between the two
- 53:22Speaker 3: is what really kind of helps people become a next
- 53:25Speaker 3: level DFS player.
- 53:26Speaker 1: Yeah, that's why I pulled up a DFS Master running
- 53:28Speaker 1: in just because the I've talked about this for years
- 53:30Speaker 1: and I know that people that follow me know this,
- 53:32Speaker 1: But the Secrets of Satellites and Qualifiers is in the
- 53:34Speaker 1: foundational part one course with the ten different events, and
- 53:37Speaker 1: this is kind of the look of it for those
- 53:38Speaker 1: who haven't seen it, Like you can favorite the courses,
- 53:41Speaker 1: you can sort up by Sport and see what courses
- 53:43Speaker 1: are out there. You can go to the interviews with
- 53:46Speaker 1: all the top players. My guy blickels on there will
- 53:48Speaker 1: be having another one soon. But you got shaloub Hamhawk,
- 53:51Speaker 1: em Bellman, the Mehit, might get my friend Jamie Beckler.
- 53:54Speaker 1: There's a bunch of different interviews on there and you
- 53:56Speaker 1: can go check those out case studies for different topics.
- 54:00Speaker 1: If you go to like PGA, you could see where
- 54:02Speaker 1: my optimizer process is on there and using the sims
- 54:05Speaker 1: and all of that type of thing. But realistically just
- 54:06Speaker 1: going back to it the secrets of satellites is part
- 54:09Speaker 1: of that. And and Stump said it as well. If
- 54:12Speaker 1: you're getting a lot of seconds to fifth, you're you're fine.
- 54:14Speaker 1: I know it's not fine on the on the financial
- 54:16Speaker 1: side in the ledger doesn't look fine, But I'm saying
- 54:18Speaker 1: you're probably playing to win. It's unfortunate, but it's the
- 54:20Speaker 1: way it goes. But you you falling in that first
- 54:23Speaker 1: to fifth is no different what I just talked about
- 54:25Speaker 1: with Aura up top, like didd Aora want to win
- 54:28Speaker 1: those tournaments instead of Chakara winning twice, of course played
- 54:31Speaker 1: to win. Probably did everything just fine. It just didn't
- 54:33Speaker 1: do as good as Chakara did, and it's not their day,
- 54:35Speaker 1: and if they keep playing that way, they'll find their day.
- 54:38Speaker 1: But it's the same setup is if it's just like
- 54:40Speaker 1: in a top heavy tournament, if you finished third for
- 54:42Speaker 1: ten K and seconds twenty and first is fifty or
- 54:45Speaker 1: one hundred, it's like, damn, I can't believe I was
- 54:47Speaker 1: literally like one point two points off from one hundred K.
- 54:50Speaker 1: But it's like you had no control over the finale
- 54:53Speaker 1: of that event, and you put yourself in the prime position.
- 54:56Speaker 1: It just didn't go your way this time, and other
- 54:59Speaker 1: crazy sh it can happen to in other places. I
- 55:01Speaker 1: go back to my Masters, where you know, I was
- 55:03Speaker 1: hoping to have a shot at the Millie and it's
- 55:04Speaker 1: like that one falls apart completely, and then later in
- 55:06Speaker 1: the day you're winning. You're bouncing back and forth between
- 55:08Speaker 1: one hundred and two hundred K and winning one hundred
- 55:10Speaker 1: and forty thousand dollars. It's like, well, that's better than
- 55:13Speaker 1: second place in the damn Millie. Like if I had
- 55:14Speaker 1: have woke up today and said this is where I stand?
- 55:17Speaker 1: Who said that too? Somebody else said? The Rory documentary
- 55:21Speaker 1: recently on Amazon about getting the monkey off his back
- 55:23Speaker 1: with the first Masters he won two years ago. He said,
- 55:26Speaker 1: you know, Harry Diamond, his caddy really dialed him back
- 55:29Speaker 1: in before that playoff, all because he missed the short putt.
- 55:31Speaker 1: Now he's got face Rosie in the playoff, and he says, buddy,
- 55:35Speaker 1: if we go back to Thursday morning and I say,
- 55:37Speaker 1: you're right here in a playoff to win your green
- 55:39Speaker 1: jacket and complete the career Grand Slam, you say, let's
- 55:42Speaker 1: do it, baby, Like, let's go now you're worried about,
- 55:44Speaker 1: like I gotta deal with this, And maybe he wasn't,
- 55:46Speaker 1: but it's like that will help him calm the nerves.
- 55:48Speaker 1: It's the same thing as anything. It's like, you know,
- 55:50Speaker 1: you just you'll take the spot that you're in second
- 55:53Speaker 1: and fifth. It sucks you want the ticket, you get
- 55:55Speaker 1: nothing for it, but man, you've put yourself in that position.
- 55:57Speaker 1: And trust me, the best satellite players will tell you.
- 55:59Speaker 1: I know, al I've've got a million of them. The
- 56:02Speaker 1: second places. Don't even talk about them no more, like
- 56:03Speaker 1: it's no point. They're all the time. It's just frustrating
- 56:06Speaker 1: what it happens. It's like part of the game.
- 56:08Speaker 3: It's especially painful when like it's not you know, second
- 56:12Speaker 3: of eleven, it's second of seventy two or second of
- 56:15Speaker 3: one hundred and thirty seven.
- 56:17Speaker 2: But yeah, and I'm like Stump knows this too.
- 56:20Speaker 3: But I think, like personally, I've I've even asked myself, like,
- 56:25Speaker 3: do I want to just play satellites, like literally get
- 56:27Speaker 3: rid of the traditional defense, just play satellites and then
- 56:29Speaker 3: get in the big ones. I think from like a
- 56:32Speaker 3: pure financial standpoint, it probably would be better because the obviously,
- 56:37Speaker 3: like the expected value is going to be higher when
- 56:40Speaker 3: it's a when it's a winner take all, which is
- 56:42Speaker 3: what the satellites are, and then it unlocks, like you know,
- 56:45Speaker 3: just a massive ceiling when you get into those megas
- 56:47Speaker 3: and stuff like that. But I think it would be
- 56:49Speaker 3: really difficult, just like mentally, because you do want to
- 56:53Speaker 3: be rewarded when you have like, for example, you know
- 56:56Speaker 3: this this past Saturday Sunday, or actually two Saturdays ago,
- 57:01Speaker 3: two Saturdays ago, and then this past Saturday.
- 57:06Speaker 2: You know, I.
- 57:06Speaker 3: Probably made it a total of around ten thousand dollars
- 57:08Speaker 3: on the PGA Showdown contest. I would have lost money
- 57:13Speaker 3: if all I was doing was playing satellites because I
- 57:15Speaker 3: didn't quite get there, but I had really really good days,
- 57:18Speaker 3: so like that would be really really tough to deal
- 57:20Speaker 3: with emotionally and psychologically, and so I think like I'm
- 57:25Speaker 3: almost playing traditional defess at this point just for peace
- 57:28Speaker 3: of mind, which is a weird thing to say.
- 57:30Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a lot more topics we could talk about
- 57:31Speaker 1: on it, because I have some thoughts on this one too,
- 57:34Speaker 1: but I'm not going to get into all them. But yeah,
- 57:36Speaker 1: you know, that's a good point from stats as they
- 57:38Speaker 1: often overlay don't feel boosting ev I think there's some
- 57:41Speaker 1: other internals on that. I talk about that in the
- 57:43Speaker 1: Secret of Satellites. But going back to it, this is
- 57:45Speaker 1: the other chalk build I found again, same three guys
- 57:48Speaker 1: writing Holguard Fitzpatrick. I just can't get away from seeing
- 57:52Speaker 1: how they'll be popular. But this was with Fleetwood, Clark, Chakara, Kim,
- 57:57Speaker 1: whoever you want to go to at seventy six hundred. Obviously,
- 57:59Speaker 1: if you from Fleetwood down to god Her up, that
- 58:02Speaker 1: becomes seventy seven hundred and could be even more guys there.
- 58:04Speaker 1: So I guess that's my point. So let's talk about
- 58:06Speaker 1: how to leverage this as we round this thing out.
- 58:08Speaker 1: What's some of your thoughts on how you want to
- 58:11Speaker 1: leverage this type of build, or at least knowing that A.
- 58:15Speaker 1: It seems like the top is going to be left
- 58:16Speaker 1: alone for the most part, and B six k's will
- 58:20Speaker 1: be really spread out. No matter what anyone tells you.
- 58:22Speaker 1: What will Lindell maybe be more popular than other six
- 58:25Speaker 1: K guys, yes, or a Delray or something. A Bomber probably,
- 58:28Speaker 1: but it's like we're still talking like four to six
- 58:30Speaker 1: percent on these guys. And you go up the middle
- 58:32Speaker 1: here and right, and Fitzpatrick and Hogard are just in
- 58:36Speaker 1: all those builds. Yeah, I think.
- 58:40Speaker 3: The very first thing that I'll say is at basically
- 58:43Speaker 3: any price range, but especially in the value range and
- 58:46Speaker 3: like the AK range, I feel like I can find
- 58:51Speaker 3: a really good course fit at much lower ownership than
- 58:54Speaker 3: the actual chalk And so that's the first thought I
- 58:57Speaker 3: have here, is like, not even a let's leverage this
- 58:59Speaker 3: from a construct standpoint, but just let's play any construction
- 59:02Speaker 3: we want and just go play the guys who fit
- 59:04Speaker 3: this golf course was basically just means bombers. I always loved,
- 59:08Speaker 3: by the way, when when bombers is the course fit,
- 59:11Speaker 3: because when bombers are the course fit, you get the
- 59:14Speaker 3: like just cherry on top. Bonus of those are also
- 59:16Speaker 3: the guys who tend to make birdies and eagles that
- 59:19Speaker 3: are really high rate, and so you're getting better DraftKings
- 59:22Speaker 3: scoring and better course fit all in one. And uh
- 59:26Speaker 3: and so like that's my first thought is just I
- 59:28Speaker 3: don't even really need to think about roster construction this week.
- 59:31Speaker 3: I can just lean into that and play a pretty
- 59:32Speaker 3: contrarian lineup that way.
- 59:34Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think from like just a range perspective too,
- 59:37Speaker 1: Like I guess we didn't talk about it a ton
- 59:39Speaker 1: with like the Scott. The Scotti lineup is seventy two
- 59:42Speaker 1: hundred left and again you can build so many lineups
- 59:45Speaker 1: the way you just talked about not even need these
- 59:47Speaker 1: guys up top. But my point being seventy two hundred
- 59:50Speaker 1: per it's I guess it's like, yeah, there's a bunch
- 59:53Speaker 1: of combos still, because like pick your poison, it's how
- 59:56Speaker 1: you aggress the do you want to go down low?
- 59:57Speaker 1: And who are you comfortable with? For somebody that said, well,
- 1:00:00Speaker 1: I'm going, you know, way off the board down here,
- 1:00:02Speaker 1: I'm not way off the board, but I'm gonna go
- 1:00:04Speaker 1: extra aggressive. I'm gonna go with Lindell del Rey. Well,
- 1:00:09Speaker 1: now they've got seventy six hundred left, they've got two
- 1:00:12Speaker 1: six k guys. You know, I get it. But it's
- 1:00:14Speaker 1: like that is one thought process, but it'll be different
- 1:00:17Speaker 1: for sure, because even if you again I don't think
- 1:00:19Speaker 1: you would. I I probably wouldn't. But even if you did,
- 1:00:21Speaker 1: land on like writing, it's I don't want to be
- 1:00:25Speaker 1: filling it out like right in Shikara and the same
- 1:00:27Speaker 1: thing everybody else has because I'm already different enough. But
- 1:00:30Speaker 1: I mean saying I could because I'm already different enough.
- 1:00:32Speaker 1: But at the same time, you just box yourself into
- 1:00:34Speaker 1: those three v three situations you've talked about so many times,
- 1:00:37Speaker 1: and I think people don't really recognize that as a
- 1:00:39Speaker 1: thing where it's like, yeah, we're not saying you're gonna
- 1:00:41Speaker 1: be duped. We're saying you're gonna be really restricted to
- 1:00:44Speaker 1: Like there's only so many Scotty Lindell type lineups and
- 1:00:47Speaker 1: they're all gonna fall into kind of that same bucket.
- 1:00:49Speaker 1: So how could you build differently with Scotty if you're
- 1:00:52Speaker 1: going that route. The same thing is to be said
- 1:00:55Speaker 1: for Rory. It's a whoops, I favored him instead but
- 1:00:58Speaker 1: Rory is seventy six hundred left. It's like a totally
- 1:01:02Speaker 1: different story. Because this is what I'll show you is
- 1:01:04Speaker 1: when you go right back down, I'm just gonna use
- 1:01:05Speaker 1: the same example and you go to Lindell and del Rey,
- 1:01:11Speaker 1: it's you now have eighty three hundred. Like that's a
- 1:01:14Speaker 1: way where you can get completely different where the Scotty
- 1:01:16Speaker 1: one is probably more boxed in. How many of the
- 1:01:18Speaker 1: Roys are doing this? And then wait a minute, are
- 1:01:20Speaker 1: some of these gonna get really aggressive and say, well
- 1:01:23Speaker 1: I want Rory and got her Up? And I still
- 1:01:26Speaker 1: might want another man, Like can can I get more
- 1:01:28Speaker 1: into this? I don't know, Oh wow, I could take
- 1:01:30Speaker 1: on extra risk, And like how many people are gonna
- 1:01:33Speaker 1: start with? I guess I'll do it a better way
- 1:01:34Speaker 1: now I know the real numbers. How many people are
- 1:01:36Speaker 1: gonna start with got her Up? Clark? Like we said,
- 1:01:39Speaker 1: not a huge percentage, but a percentage versus how many
- 1:01:41Speaker 1: you are gonna have those as number two and three
- 1:01:44Speaker 1: into the build. And yes you're taking on more risk,
- 1:01:47Speaker 1: but it's just to see when you look at the numbers,
- 1:01:49Speaker 1: I'm just gonna make up a random.
- 1:01:51Speaker 3: I'm thinking also, if they're if they're two and three
- 1:01:54Speaker 3: in the build, it's almost always gonna be Xander, Oberger,
- 1:01:57Speaker 3: Tommy who's first, and not Rory.
- 1:02:00Speaker 1: Right, That's what I'm saying. Yeah, you've you've made it
- 1:02:02Speaker 1: a little bit more succinct at the end there. But
- 1:02:04Speaker 1: I guess my point is most these sixty four hundred
- 1:02:06Speaker 1: dollars golfers are forty to fifty points. I'm not gonna
- 1:02:09Speaker 1: fill it out, but I'm saying you're still getting to
- 1:02:11Speaker 1: like three sixty five to three seventy five. It's not
- 1:02:14Speaker 1: very far from the three eighty five we started at
- 1:02:16Speaker 1: with the ultra chalk build. Yet you're doing multiple things.
- 1:02:19Speaker 1: You're skipping the seven k eight K range altogether, you're
- 1:02:23Speaker 1: using got her up as a second golfer in but
- 1:02:27Speaker 1: not with a Oberg or Fleetwood or Xander on top,
- 1:02:30Speaker 1: with a Rory on top, and then you can start
- 1:02:33Speaker 1: to make moves from there, and then of course like this,
- 1:02:35Speaker 1: I think it's fine. So I think in reality there's
- 1:02:38Speaker 1: a bunch of different ways that you can do it.
- 1:02:40Speaker 1: But right out of the gate, the first thought for
- 1:02:42Speaker 1: me is using more of these guys up top, especially
- 1:02:45Speaker 1: if we think their ownership is coming down some I'll
- 1:02:47Speaker 1: be very interested to see tomorrow when we do the
- 1:02:52Speaker 1: final draft of the Stone, where I want to see
- 1:02:55Speaker 1: what the optimal percentages are where we're using like the
- 1:02:57Speaker 1: simulation driven data, mixing it and trying to see he
- 1:03:00Speaker 1: sort of what this looks like over ten thousand sims,
- 1:03:02Speaker 1: to see what the optimal rate is for these golfers,
- 1:03:05Speaker 1: because we've seen times where like I'm sure you've seen
- 1:03:08Speaker 1: this a ton Scotty has all the win equity, and
- 1:03:10Speaker 1: I mean, actually it was your original point of the
- 1:03:11Speaker 1: season the first time I and only time I think
- 1:03:13Speaker 1: that I disagree with you fully on something and it
- 1:03:15Speaker 1: didn't work out in my favor. I'll tell you that much.
- 1:03:17Speaker 1: But my point being, Scotty has massive win equity. But
- 1:03:21Speaker 1: then you see his optimal rate and it's worse than
- 1:03:24Speaker 1: the guys below him, because it's like, well, yeah, but
- 1:03:26Speaker 1: you can't really build good lineups with him. He's just
- 1:03:28Speaker 1: way more likely to win. So and then people assume
- 1:03:32Speaker 1: that it's like it's just so many myths around that,
- 1:03:34Speaker 1: like if you have the way, you gotta have the winner.
- 1:03:35Speaker 1: Not always the case, especially when they're fourteen k if
- 1:03:39Speaker 1: if Scotty's fourteen k he's got to win. It's like
- 1:03:41Speaker 1: the contred to that. It's like, well, yeah, but you don't. Actually,
- 1:03:43Speaker 1: we've seen it where Scotty's been on winning lineups and
- 1:03:45Speaker 1: all these guys fail and still Scotty shows up like
- 1:03:48Speaker 1: eight and does quite well. So it's like it's all
- 1:03:50Speaker 1: dependent or more of the value plays come through that
- 1:03:53Speaker 1: to nothing. People confuse, They're like, how did Scotty come
- 1:03:56Speaker 1: t ten but he showed up on the winner? That's crazy.
- 1:03:59Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, they probably had the winner or second
- 1:04:01Speaker 1: place or something up the middle, but it's like the
- 1:04:03Speaker 1: balanced version with the winner or the second place didn't
- 1:04:06Speaker 1: have a good build and have the other plays come
- 1:04:09Speaker 1: through or end up having a good build I should say,
- 1:04:11Speaker 1: results wise, but it's like all the values crushed. So
- 1:04:14Speaker 1: it's like, well Scotty was tenth ten of the values
- 1:04:17Speaker 1: finished in the top twenty, and it's like, well, those
- 1:04:19Speaker 1: all fit well with Scotty builds. So it's like that's
- 1:04:21Speaker 1: why it matters so much what everybody else is doing
- 1:04:23Speaker 1: and what you think about the rest of the board.
- 1:04:25Speaker 1: The Chess Master example again of like what are my
- 1:04:28Speaker 1: moves thinking ahead versus what's my move right now? Yes,
- 1:04:32Speaker 1: you do have to make the move right now, but
- 1:04:34Speaker 1: you should be thinking ahead about what's gonna be happening
- 1:04:37Speaker 1: and how it would all play out. So that to
- 1:04:38Speaker 1: me ties in as well, same reason that a birdie
- 1:04:40Speaker 1: fest high variance you can take on less chalk because
- 1:04:44Speaker 1: it's gonna be higher variance and three em open as
- 1:04:46Speaker 1: an example, a ton of water out there. You know,
- 1:04:49Speaker 1: That's why Alex said earlier the course a little bit
- 1:04:51Speaker 1: harder for him, and you know, Pat made the joke
- 1:04:52Speaker 1: will bring extra balls. I guess that's true. But the
- 1:04:55Speaker 1: other side, or the flip side to it is also
- 1:04:58Speaker 1: that there's gonna be a bunch of birdies and munch
- 1:05:00Speaker 1: of scoring out there, and they're all getting to play
- 1:05:01Speaker 1: the same thirty six holes before the cut. So it's
- 1:05:04Speaker 1: like there's those guys can come through with the variants
- 1:05:06Speaker 1: and being able to score and it just happens, And
- 1:05:09Speaker 1: so sometimes those builds can come through in your favor.
- 1:05:12Speaker 1: Was there anything Alex with the eight K range outside
- 1:05:16Speaker 1: of I think what I noticed for sure this show
- 1:05:18Speaker 1: is like the whole guard thing unavoidable that's gonna hit
- 1:05:21Speaker 1: with ownership whether we like it or not, It's gonna
- 1:05:23Speaker 1: fall in place. Because there's gonna be some people to
- 1:05:25Speaker 1: play just him and none of the other two. They're
- 1:05:27Speaker 1: gonna play all three, They're gonna play two of them.
- 1:05:30Speaker 1: He's gonna be in the mix. But I do think
- 1:05:32Speaker 1: there's a chance that Hatten and min Wu the two
- 1:05:35Speaker 1: that I think would be the most likely to be
- 1:05:37Speaker 1: popular after that, maybe Kidiamic as the bomber angle, but
- 1:05:40Speaker 1: just noting it, I think they're gonna be more held
- 1:05:42Speaker 1: in check than we think because you just don't see
- 1:05:44Speaker 1: a lot of lineups with the eight K guys. Do
- 1:05:45Speaker 1: you think there's any validity this week to that balance build,
- 1:05:48Speaker 1: being that it's still a tough field, tricky track overseas,
- 1:05:52Speaker 1: you know, different factors anything else with the AK guys.
- 1:05:55Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a good question. I was actually gonna go
- 1:05:58Speaker 3: on a kind of a different min Wu Tang, but.
- 1:06:01Speaker 1: We'll do that next.
- 1:06:04Speaker 2: Yeah, I do think there's a chance there.
- 1:06:06Speaker 3: I would say, like the entire uper eight K range
- 1:06:10Speaker 3: has a fairly wide range of outcomes ownership wise, where
- 1:06:14Speaker 3: I think all of them could really get squeezed. Like
- 1:06:16Speaker 3: we already talked about how much ownership competition there is
- 1:06:20Speaker 3: between like Wyndham got her up, Tommy Oberg, Shotley, and Fitzpatrick.
- 1:06:24Speaker 3: I'll throw Fitzpatrick in there too, where like maybe everyone
- 1:06:27Speaker 3: just decides, yeah, I just need as much of the
- 1:06:29Speaker 3: nine K range as I can get that chooses not
- 1:06:32Speaker 3: to pay up for one of the top three uh
- 1:06:34Speaker 3: And therefore, like this entire uper eight k range just
- 1:06:37Speaker 3: all comes in way lower than expected. So JT's lower
- 1:06:39Speaker 3: than expected, Patton's lower than expected. I think Hobland has
- 1:06:44Speaker 3: a chance to get higher than expected. I think kant
- 1:06:47Speaker 3: Ley has a chance to steam, Kidi Yama probably has
- 1:06:51Speaker 3: a chance to steam. And then I do think min
- 1:06:53Speaker 3: Wu has a chance to steam, just because everyone knows
- 1:06:55Speaker 3: that min Wu is a bomber, which is actually kind
- 1:06:58Speaker 3: of the next point that I wanted to get to
- 1:07:00Speaker 3: a bout min Wou because it's I think it's a
- 1:07:02Speaker 3: pretty interesting one.
- 1:07:03Speaker 1: We'll go there in one second. And because min Wu
- 1:07:05Speaker 1: came up in this comment. But Scooter's back and says
- 1:07:07Speaker 1: Hatton might be getting too much attention to Moonlok. That's
- 1:07:09Speaker 1: why I said held in check, Like I think the
- 1:07:11Speaker 1: number could end up being accurate as opposed to steaming.
- 1:07:14Speaker 1: Maybe he doesn't moonlock because he's the one guy in
- 1:07:17Speaker 1: there that people just can't move off of and I
- 1:07:19Speaker 1: don't know, like we'll get to the min with things. Says,
- 1:07:21Speaker 1: I can see min Wu slipping. Definitely think that's something
- 1:07:23Speaker 1: in hand projecting, like he's talking about handbuilds, but not
- 1:07:26Speaker 1: in projection builds. True. But then to Jordan's point, like
- 1:07:29Speaker 1: he says, he seems to fit everything. He fit almost
- 1:07:31Speaker 1: nothing that we built. Could he fit everything? Yes, that's
- 1:07:33Speaker 1: why it's always tricky to see. But when we were
- 1:07:36Speaker 1: looking at it from almost every angle, none of those
- 1:07:38Speaker 1: went with Hatton. It's not to say that when someone says, Okay,
- 1:07:42Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Rory and skip the nine K range,
- 1:07:44Speaker 1: we'll fine. Yeah, they're probably picking Hatton and they're making
- 1:07:46Speaker 1: your choices. So I look, I think the ownership numbers
- 1:07:49Speaker 1: close to right. Well, I don't what do you have
- 1:07:50Speaker 1: him at right now? Just using the early.
- 1:07:52Speaker 2: Numbers for Hatton?
- 1:07:55Speaker 3: Yeah, fourteen right for Hatton, I have a fifteen percent
- 1:07:59Speaker 3: of out of it you're asking about, Yeah, sorry.
- 1:08:01Speaker 1: Hatton, Yeah, okay, so we're more close. But I think
- 1:08:03Speaker 1: that's all I'm saying is and we've seen this before
- 1:08:05Speaker 1: where it's like, oh, Fleetwood fits everything at a major
- 1:08:08Speaker 1: at eighty six hundred, everyone's gonna be on him, and
- 1:08:09Speaker 1: then he just locks in it like fifteen sixteen percent.
- 1:08:12Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, he's still definitely owned, but it's like
- 1:08:14Speaker 1: he didn't get to the twenty plus that you were thinking,
- 1:08:16Speaker 1: and I just don't see that being the case here.
- 1:08:18Speaker 1: I also think before the Minmu thing, it's like pretty
- 1:08:20Speaker 1: interesting because you mentioned Hobland's name.
- 1:08:22Speaker 3: Like.
- 1:08:24Speaker 1: Fleetwood got her up. Clark could be a start, but
- 1:08:27Speaker 1: this is where I know. It's like it doesn't have
- 1:08:29Speaker 1: the same win equity technically on paper, but does Like,
- 1:08:32Speaker 1: first of all, Tommy's win equity is always a disaster.
- 1:08:35Speaker 1: What what win equity? Like the guy won the FedEx
- 1:08:37Speaker 1: Cup with thirty guys, I think he's a phenomenal player,
- 1:08:39Speaker 1: probably a way better human being. I mean him and
- 1:08:41Speaker 1: his son and things like that, just hanging out and
- 1:08:43Speaker 1: chat like a great person. We're not talking about that here.
- 1:08:45Speaker 1: My point being like Hobland just won, McIntyre's won this tournament.
- 1:08:49Speaker 1: Hatton's maybe under priced, but like how many people are
- 1:08:52Speaker 1: gonna start with Hobland McIntyre Hatton? And then again, just
- 1:08:56Speaker 1: don't go play the same three dudes that everyone else
- 1:08:58Speaker 1: is playing, And you could have a pretty good lie.
- 1:09:00Speaker 1: I'm still I think if the Rory and the Scotti's
- 1:09:03Speaker 1: or the pieces that go with them don't come through
- 1:09:05Speaker 1: as much as everybody else think it's going to happen.
- 1:09:07Speaker 1: So just my two cents, well, let's do the minmu rant.
- 1:09:11Speaker 3: I wouldn't really call it a rant, but I think
- 1:09:13Speaker 3: it's really interesting that. Like, so his his stroke skin
- 1:09:19Speaker 3: driving distance estimate.
- 1:09:20Speaker 2: For me is now not great.
- 1:09:24Speaker 3: He's at point one point nine for context, Like that's
- 1:09:28Speaker 3: less than Pearson Coodie. That's way below Michael Brannan, way
- 1:09:32Speaker 3: below got her up. It's slightly ahead of Wyndham Clark,
- 1:09:35Speaker 3: who hit such a big cut that he you know,
- 1:09:37Speaker 3: costs himself probably ten to fifteen yards. It's in line
- 1:09:41Speaker 3: with Oberg and Shoffley. So but if you look at
- 1:09:46Speaker 3: his ball speed, his ball speed's way above that. And
- 1:09:48Speaker 3: I think two things are going on. Number one, he
- 1:09:51Speaker 3: has really increased his spin rate off the tee. It
- 1:09:55Speaker 3: is not clear if that's just he's hitting a lot
- 1:09:58Speaker 3: of mini drivers and the mini spins more and he's
- 1:10:01Speaker 3: doing this specifically so that he can be a little
- 1:10:03Speaker 3: bit more accurate, or if that's the driver spinning more
- 1:10:07Speaker 3: and again, like he's doing this to be more accurate,
- 1:10:10Speaker 3: where now he gets on a course where you can
- 1:10:12Speaker 3: it's a little bit more for giving off the tee
- 1:10:14Speaker 3: distance is so rewarded. Can he come in this week
- 1:10:17Speaker 3: and like if it's if it's the mini driver that's
- 1:10:19Speaker 3: causing the extra spin, Now he just hits the big driver,
- 1:10:23Speaker 3: spins the ball less and gains you know, zero point
- 1:10:26Speaker 3: three to three per round instead of point one to
- 1:10:29Speaker 3: nine per round. And it doesn't seem like that's a
- 1:10:32Speaker 3: big difference, but it actually is a big difference when
- 1:10:34Speaker 3: you add it up throughout the week and when you
- 1:10:36Speaker 3: consider like how advantageous distance is at this golf course.
- 1:10:40Speaker 3: So it's just one of those things where like as
- 1:10:45Speaker 3: as much time and effort as I put into projection models,
- 1:10:49Speaker 3: I think this is one of those like very clear
- 1:10:51Speaker 3: instances where you really have to deviate from the projections.
- 1:10:53Speaker 3: Just think about it from a golf perspective and and
- 1:10:56Speaker 3: kind of think through, well, what does that do for
- 1:10:58Speaker 3: his actual range of outcomes if he does, you know,
- 1:11:01Speaker 3: add let's say twenty yards this week, knowing that he
- 1:11:05Speaker 3: can and he doesn't have to care so much about
- 1:11:07Speaker 3: keeping the ball in play, so on and so forth.
- 1:11:10Speaker 3: So I just thought it was like an interesting kind
- 1:11:12Speaker 3: of projection discussion, but also specific to min Wu because
- 1:11:16Speaker 3: he doesn't project well. He doesn't have a good GPP score.
- 1:11:19Speaker 3: But if you think that his distance is being underrated
- 1:11:23Speaker 3: by the model, that could turn him into one of
- 1:11:25Speaker 3: the better plays this week.
- 1:11:27Speaker 1: Yeah, I forgot the super conversation room last week and
- 1:11:31Speaker 1: then Super end up having a good week. Right, So
- 1:11:33Speaker 1: of course the first the week before it was harmon.
- 1:11:35Speaker 1: Last week people were tagging me on the super stuff.
- 1:11:38Speaker 1: I'm like, buddy, it's just points being alex analytics. We'll
- 1:11:42Speaker 1: call it. Is this you're analyzing it, explaining why it's
- 1:11:45Speaker 1: nobody's gonna be right all the time or understand. Otherwise
- 1:11:47Speaker 1: you'd literally just print. You'd be able to just bet
- 1:11:49Speaker 1: and win all the money. It's like, it's so easy
- 1:11:51Speaker 1: if that was the case. But I think that was
- 1:11:53Speaker 1: a conversation people brought up. Maybe that's this week's min Wu.
- 1:11:55Speaker 1: But I have some other thoughts all the well.
- 1:11:57Speaker 2: Also, like the super conversation, I don't think you can have.
- 1:12:01Speaker 3: It's it's wrong to have like a super conversation and
- 1:12:05Speaker 3: then a Novak conversation and then a Coaven conversation, you
- 1:12:09Speaker 3: need to have them all together, right, Like they were
- 1:12:11Speaker 3: all huge chalk. We're kind of talking about them in
- 1:12:14Speaker 3: the context of their ownership, and like you can't simultaneously say, oh,
- 1:12:19Speaker 3: what a great call on fading Novak and fading Coven,
- 1:12:24Speaker 3: but then what a horrible call on Super Like they're
- 1:12:28Speaker 3: they're the same motivation, right, and so uh it just
- 1:12:32Speaker 3: it shows that, yeah, like if that kind of decision
- 1:12:36Speaker 3: is going to have really good outcomes and really bad outcomes,
- 1:12:38Speaker 3: and are you are you getting enough good outcomes to
- 1:12:42Speaker 3: justify the bad ones? And I think last week was
- 1:12:44Speaker 3: was absolutely one of those weeks where the good outcomes
- 1:12:48Speaker 3: made the bad outcome absolutely worthwhile. It was just I
- 1:12:51Speaker 3: didn't have good enough plays of my own to kind
- 1:12:54Speaker 3: of take advantage of those good fads.
- 1:12:56Speaker 1: Agreed, And I love the part you said, like you know,
- 1:12:58Speaker 1: you get two ou of the three nail it and
- 1:13:00Speaker 1: then like ones off and it's like, oh man, you loser,
- 1:13:02Speaker 1: Like you can't go one hundred percent all the time,
- 1:13:04Speaker 1: Like what's wrong with you? It's like that's that's how
- 1:13:06Speaker 1: it gets. That's why it's just not even worth getting
- 1:13:07Speaker 1: into the picks and plays side of it. But I
- 1:13:09Speaker 1: think what is interesting is like on the min Wu
- 1:13:11Speaker 1: front again, just like what is it really stemming from?
- 1:13:14Speaker 1: Like his recent form is sixty second miscut, miscut some
- 1:13:18Speaker 1: eighteenth places. Oh, but he won here back in twenty
- 1:13:21Speaker 1: twenty one, Like okay, I looked at it. First of all,
- 1:13:24Speaker 1: he lost stro he almost I think he barely gained
- 1:13:27Speaker 1: off the tee. He gained heavy with the putter and
- 1:13:30Speaker 1: around the green, which is fine, that's what it takes
- 1:13:32Speaker 1: to win a golf tournament. But if you look at
- 1:13:37Speaker 1: the last six five years plus since then, of like
- 1:13:40Speaker 1: when this was, he's gained with the putter like fifteen times.
- 1:13:44Speaker 1: That way, it's not gonna be like a common occurrence.
- 1:13:46Speaker 1: He's not in his best form. So like somebody said
- 1:13:48Speaker 1: it here like uh, you know, chat let me know
- 1:13:50Speaker 1: if they already did. He says, can you guys go
- 1:13:52Speaker 1: over with the argument against I don't know, iwan eras
- 1:13:55Speaker 1: poos or peeze your puig, you know, whatever you want
- 1:13:58Speaker 1: to say. But he says, doesn't he fit the model
- 1:13:59Speaker 1: what we're looking for bomber putter? How is he different
- 1:14:01Speaker 1: than Nico and min Wu? I think that's like again,
- 1:14:03Speaker 1: if that's how you think about it and feel. I mean,
- 1:14:05Speaker 1: clearly his ownership is going to be less than those two.
- 1:14:08Speaker 1: He splits the difference on them, and I think it's
- 1:14:10Speaker 1: more than five because people are nut comfortable they want
- 1:14:12Speaker 1: him at seventy five hundred more than they want him
- 1:14:14Speaker 1: at eighty one hundred. That's that's the thing with him.
- 1:14:16Speaker 3: Yeah, I do think Poosia is a pretty good play.
- 1:14:19Speaker 3: I would say that, like, I'm not necessarily looking for
- 1:14:22Speaker 3: Bomber Putter. I'm looking for bomber irons more than than
- 1:14:26Speaker 3: Bomber Putter. And uh, and that is Pooja's weakness is
- 1:14:29Speaker 3: he's not a very good iron player.
- 1:14:30Speaker 2: His irons have been really bad of late.
- 1:14:32Speaker 1: So but neither is min Wu really right?
- 1:14:34Speaker 2: Like what correct? Yes?
- 1:14:36Speaker 3: So, so like that's that's probably the thing that keeps
- 1:14:39Speaker 3: me off when min Wu. But I would also say that,
- 1:14:41Speaker 3: like these guys that we're we're talking about right now,
- 1:14:43Speaker 3: min Wu, I saw someone say like Chakaro could be
- 1:14:47Speaker 3: this week's Super. I would also say, uh, like all
- 1:14:53Speaker 3: of these guys probably don't qualify as this week super
- 1:14:57Speaker 3: because I don't think that any of them are going
- 1:14:59Speaker 3: to get to that level of ownership. Certainly not like
- 1:15:03Speaker 3: this week in Novak, So I would say that Nikolai
- 1:15:07Speaker 3: and maybe Alex Fitzpatrick, maybe Tom Kim or more. Actually yeah,
- 1:15:12Speaker 3: I'll go Nikolai and Tom Kim. I think are are
- 1:15:16Speaker 3: the probably the best examples of this week's.
- 1:15:21Speaker 2: Uh super and Novak.
- 1:15:23Speaker 1: Yeah what let me look here at So like Tom Kim,
- 1:15:28Speaker 1: this has to be hilarious, but yeah, what's he gonna have.
- 1:15:30Speaker 1: It's like if the iron show up like they have been,
- 1:15:33Speaker 1: then good, but it's if he doesn't, it's like, man,
- 1:15:36Speaker 1: that's bad. And also his ownership is saying it's like
- 1:15:38Speaker 1: he's gonna be this you know, second coming of what
- 1:15:41Speaker 1: he was and we're gonna get more out of him,
- 1:15:43Speaker 1: and I just again that's just assumptions. But there's literally
- 1:15:47Speaker 1: a massive seven k range this week. It's not like
- 1:15:49Speaker 1: we're down to the twenty person seven k range. We
- 1:15:51Speaker 1: have like fifty golfers in there or something. And he's
- 1:15:53Speaker 1: you know, been fine, been really good here the last
- 1:15:56Speaker 1: four years. But it's you know, that's like saying men
- 1:15:58Speaker 1: who won here four years ago and then was here
- 1:16:00Speaker 1: for three years, So that could just flip on a
- 1:16:02Speaker 1: dime as well. So I don't know if you want
- 1:16:04Speaker 1: to add to the Tom Kim stuff, but just the
- 1:16:05Speaker 1: prime example.
- 1:16:07Speaker 3: Yeah, And I mean he's just like from a course
- 1:16:10Speaker 3: fit perspective, right, like, yeah, the history is good, but
- 1:16:13Speaker 3: distance is the separating skill. Like so so clearly here
- 1:16:17Speaker 3: and Tom Kim's gonna lose strokes with his distance to
- 1:16:20Speaker 3: this field, So I will I will bet against the
- 1:16:24Speaker 3: Irons remaining that hot. Now, the really strong iron play,
- 1:16:27Speaker 3: both historically and recently does make up for that lack
- 1:16:32Speaker 3: of distance to some degree, and it does mean Like
- 1:16:35Speaker 3: I'm certainly not saying that Tom Kim is like terrible
- 1:16:37Speaker 3: chalk and he's an auto fad or anything like that.
- 1:16:39Speaker 3: I just think he's probably the closest example to Super
- 1:16:43Speaker 3: last week, where like, yeah, there are things that point
- 1:16:45Speaker 3: to him being a pretty good play, but there's also
- 1:16:47Speaker 3: enough downside here where like it could go very poorly
- 1:16:50Speaker 3: for people. And That's what I'm trying to do, right,
- 1:16:53Speaker 3: I'm trying to take advantage of the field as a whole,
- 1:16:56Speaker 3: just being on a number of guys who really kind
- 1:16:59Speaker 3: of bust. And now I happen to get six for
- 1:17:01Speaker 3: six through the cut, five percent of the field has
- 1:17:04Speaker 3: six for six and that puts me in a really
- 1:17:06Speaker 3: good position, and I'm always gonna play that way rather
- 1:17:09Speaker 3: than trying to have the best six for six for
- 1:17:12Speaker 3: the week when twenty five percent or twenty percent of
- 1:17:14Speaker 3: the field also has six for six. Like, It's just
- 1:17:17Speaker 3: it's such a path of least resistance to try and
- 1:17:20Speaker 3: go for those takedowns by competing against five percent of
- 1:17:23Speaker 3: the field on the weekend rather than twenty five percent.
- 1:17:26Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what we want. I mean, it didn't fully
- 1:17:28Speaker 1: work a live worked out for the Fantasy Golf World
- 1:17:30Speaker 1: Championship side of things for you, But for the other side,
- 1:17:31Speaker 1: it didn't. Man, what a what a week? Like, we're
- 1:17:33Speaker 1: waiting for those five percent six of six weeks and
- 1:17:35Speaker 1: this could be another one. A lot of variants, a
- 1:17:36Speaker 1: lot of thoughts around that here. My dad just texted
- 1:17:40Speaker 1: me is one and done for the week? So we'll
- 1:17:41Speaker 1: use that for our one and done segment quick, He says,
- 1:17:44Speaker 1: I'll take Bobby Mack for the Mayo Cup, so he's
- 1:17:48Speaker 1: in on the Bobby Mack narrative in the history and
- 1:17:50Speaker 1: all that stuff. What's your thoughts on one and done
- 1:17:53Speaker 1: for this week?
- 1:17:54Speaker 2: Yeah, I think let's see it.
- 1:17:57Speaker 3: Even though this is an awesome field, like this this
- 1:18:00Speaker 3: is this is a week that is really really frustrating
- 1:18:03Speaker 3: from a one and done perspective because.
- 1:18:08Speaker 2: The payout kind of stinks.
- 1:18:10Speaker 3: But you have to have someone beat like all the
- 1:18:12Speaker 3: best players in the world, so very difficult in that regard.
- 1:18:15Speaker 3: I definitely think we want to lean into distance. We
- 1:18:17Speaker 3: got to find a bomber of some sort. Let's see
- 1:18:21Speaker 3: who we have, so like we we can't use Rory
- 1:18:24Speaker 3: or rom here, even that we have them available, saying
- 1:18:26Speaker 3: with Oberg kind of got to save those guys.
- 1:18:29Speaker 2: I think we could go to wind them, but that's.
- 1:18:32Speaker 3: A little bit tough because although like I think he
- 1:18:34Speaker 3: was so low owned at the US Open that we're
- 1:18:36Speaker 3: not really competing with people who had him there.
- 1:18:39Speaker 2: So I think Wyndham is a fine, fine play. Let's see, um.
- 1:18:45Speaker 1: Is the prize pool right, Like, it's like you're not
- 1:18:47Speaker 1: getting a ton of money for any of these guys,
- 1:18:51Speaker 1: like to burn them. I know, we only have so
- 1:18:52Speaker 1: many events left, but with playoff events and with the
- 1:18:55Speaker 1: Open and all these other factors, I guess like some
- 1:18:58Speaker 1: many will think like ram or Hatten, because if you're
- 1:19:01Speaker 1: not using them at the Open, this is your last
- 1:19:03Speaker 1: shot to use them. But what's the delta on like
- 1:19:06Speaker 1: their ownership versus that thought process versus the truth. You
- 1:19:10Speaker 1: can't really play them very many spots.
- 1:19:12Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think that they'll be that high because
- 1:19:14Speaker 3: I think number one, like Rom has Rum, has already
- 1:19:17Speaker 3: been used by fifty two percent of people in the PME,
- 1:19:20Speaker 3: and I think the vast majority of people who haven't
- 1:19:23Speaker 3: used him, if they are going to use him, they're
- 1:19:25Speaker 3: going to use him at a major championship. So I
- 1:19:27Speaker 3: don't think that he'll be super popular this week, which
- 1:19:30Speaker 3: does make him a bit of an intriguing idea because
- 1:19:32Speaker 3: you get the same thing like especially, I think you
- 1:19:35Speaker 3: want to use Rom this week if you just feel
- 1:19:37Speaker 3: like he doesn't.
- 1:19:39Speaker 2: He doesn't.
- 1:19:40Speaker 3: He's not in good enough form for you to to
- 1:19:43Speaker 3: really have faith in him at a major championship when
- 1:19:46Speaker 3: you're going for that huge prize school, So you're more
- 1:19:48Speaker 3: willing to burn him in a in a lower price
- 1:19:51Speaker 3: pool like this because you already know, Hey, i'd rather
- 1:19:54Speaker 3: play you know, Axander Schoffley or Tommy Fleetwood or Rory
- 1:19:59Speaker 3: or Scotty if you still have him. Only five percent
- 1:20:01Speaker 3: have Scottie remaining, so that's und likely. But I think
- 1:20:04Speaker 3: you get what I'm saying, right, He's like, you know,
- 1:20:05Speaker 3: maybe you already know you're not going to use him
- 1:20:07Speaker 3: in a major championship, so now you're you're de signing between.
- 1:20:10Speaker 2: Ram and Minwu Lee or Kirk Kidiyama or.
- 1:20:16Speaker 1: Getting the talent level. But like David said, like what
- 1:20:19Speaker 1: are you saving wrong for? It's like you're using him
- 1:20:21Speaker 1: this week or next and if you're not, we're like, again,
- 1:20:24Speaker 1: he's already so used, not like as much as you think.
- 1:20:27Speaker 1: He say he's like fifty percent remaining, but some of
- 1:20:30Speaker 1: those are saving him for that next week. And even
- 1:20:32Speaker 1: if he is like twenty percent this week, it's like
- 1:20:34Speaker 1: it is it the worst? I don't know, but it's
- 1:20:36Speaker 1: like you're still getting upper talent for event that you're
- 1:20:40Speaker 1: not getting upper money for anyway, And if you weren't
- 1:20:42Speaker 1: going to use him next week, it's worth using him
- 1:20:44Speaker 1: for that reasoning. So it's like, I actually have no
- 1:20:46Speaker 1: problem with Ram if we have.
- 1:20:47Speaker 2: Yeah, we do have him.
- 1:20:48Speaker 3: I think that's a good idea because the other thing
- 1:20:50Speaker 3: is like we're not in good shape obviously for.
- 1:20:53Speaker 2: One and done.
- 1:20:54Speaker 3: I think everyone who's been following along knows that we
- 1:20:56Speaker 3: have stunk it up this year and when it done.
- 1:20:59Speaker 3: So I don't think we want Rum in a major anyway,
- 1:21:02Speaker 3: because he's still gonna be like twenty to twenty five
- 1:21:05Speaker 3: percent per major championship. Actually, we're through three, so he's
- 1:21:10Speaker 3: probably gonna be I would say fifteen to twenty in
- 1:21:15Speaker 3: in the Open championship, given how how owned he's been
- 1:21:18Speaker 3: so far, So like, do we really want him in
- 1:21:22Speaker 3: the most point not to.
- 1:21:23Speaker 1: Take, But that's a really good point because what again
- 1:21:25Speaker 1: people won't consider I don't think very often is like
- 1:21:28Speaker 1: that's it's not about rom and you're allowed to use him,
- 1:21:31Speaker 1: and that's like the last spot you can et cetera.
- 1:21:32Speaker 1: Siety like that's the obvious. It's again I don't think
- 1:21:35Speaker 1: people consider enough, even though it's like more common now,
- 1:21:37Speaker 1: But like the prize pool and what it's worth if
- 1:21:39Speaker 1: there's only one major left and again I know there's
- 1:21:42Speaker 1: some other big prize pools of the playoffs, and say like,
- 1:21:44Speaker 1: if there's only one big major event left with the
- 1:21:46Speaker 1: prize pool that big, I don't want a fifteen to
- 1:21:49Speaker 1: twenty percent guy at that. I want a separator if
- 1:21:51Speaker 1: I'm only if I need to get the money if
- 1:21:52Speaker 1: we're behind, which most people are including us. I want
- 1:21:55Speaker 1: to get the most money with a lower owned guy
- 1:21:58Speaker 1: next week that all those raw bust. And even if
- 1:22:01Speaker 1: we do get the same fifteen to twenty percent ownership
- 1:22:03Speaker 1: with him this week, it's he's probably got the best
- 1:22:06Speaker 1: shot out of the x amount of people. More like
- 1:22:08Speaker 1: happy that summer, saving him for next week, where we
- 1:22:10Speaker 1: would want to get unique next week to try and
- 1:22:12Speaker 1: pick up the most amount of money, like four million
- 1:22:14Speaker 1: plus at one to two percent ownership, to make upground
- 1:22:19Speaker 1: that others can't pick up on us, to even give
- 1:22:21Speaker 1: us a shot to cash and get into it and
- 1:22:22Speaker 1: see what we can do down the stretch. So I
- 1:22:24Speaker 1: think that's another really good point.
- 1:22:25Speaker 3: Also, I didn't even think of this, but now now
- 1:22:28Speaker 3: that I have, like, I love this thought. Is we
- 1:22:31Speaker 3: take herem'm here. Let's say he's five to ten percent
- 1:22:33Speaker 3: and he wins. That's awesome for us. Also it means
- 1:22:36Speaker 3: he's not gonna be fifteen percent next week. He's gonna
- 1:22:38Speaker 3: be thirty percent next week. Yeah, so he goes on
- 1:22:41Speaker 3: to next week and bust. Like, now we're in awesome
- 1:22:44Speaker 3: shape if we can double up with a win here
- 1:22:46Speaker 3: and a win there, like all of a sudden we're
- 1:22:47Speaker 3: right back in the mix. So yeah, I think this
- 1:22:49Speaker 3: is a this is the kind of the path because
- 1:22:52Speaker 3: it's it's it's it's actually like, it's not just about
- 1:22:55Speaker 3: this week, but it's also about making sure that he's
- 1:22:58Speaker 3: as owned as possible next week and then hopefully he
- 1:23:00Speaker 3: busts for all of those people when we're not using him.
- 1:23:03Speaker 2: I really like that thought. So yeah, let's lock and run.
- 1:23:06Speaker 1: Yeah, it helps us more than it hurts us, for sure,
- 1:23:08Speaker 1: and that's why it's a good game to play, whereas
- 1:23:10Speaker 1: like DFS, it's like we just need to figure it
- 1:23:11Speaker 1: out for this week and then same example, next week,
- 1:23:14Speaker 1: Ram will be more popular. We'll see when pricing comes
- 1:23:16Speaker 1: out what he's out. If he wins this week, we'll
- 1:23:17Speaker 1: be Yeah, yes, some of that carries over, but there's
- 1:23:20Speaker 1: also so many more decisions that go with it when
- 1:23:22Speaker 1: you've got a full lineup to build and roster construction
- 1:23:24Speaker 1: and salary constrained, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera, and
- 1:23:26Speaker 1: could be wave advantages and all these different things. So yeah,
- 1:23:28Speaker 1: we'll talk more on that next week. We'll have the
- 1:23:30Speaker 1: Open Show betting breakdown, any anything from the betting side
- 1:23:34Speaker 1: this week, and you need to go one hundred percent
- 1:23:36Speaker 1: whatever you bring because otherwise the people are coming for you.
- 1:23:39Speaker 2: Dude, I have no bets yet this week. It's it's
- 1:23:42Speaker 2: so weird. Yeah.
- 1:23:43Speaker 3: I ran my stuff, and I was so in lockstep
- 1:23:48Speaker 3: with the market except on one guy. I showed a
- 1:23:50Speaker 3: big edge on Scotti Scheffler. I don't want to bet
- 1:23:52Speaker 3: Scottie Scheffler, so I don't have anything at the moment.
- 1:23:56Speaker 3: I might end up just betting Scotty and trusting the numbers.
- 1:24:00Speaker 3: I'm gonna I will run things again. I'm hopeful that,
- 1:24:03Speaker 3: like you know, there are a lot of guys who
- 1:24:06Speaker 3: were just under the kind of typical edge that I
- 1:24:10Speaker 3: use whether or not to bet it, and maybe they'll
- 1:24:13Speaker 3: slip a little bit in the odds and I'll then
- 1:24:16Speaker 3: just get on those guys. So I am going to
- 1:24:17Speaker 3: look out for that. But I would also say I
- 1:24:20Speaker 3: think the larger point for the betting breakdown this week
- 1:24:25Speaker 3: is it's a phenomenal underdog week and just in general
- 1:24:29Speaker 3: props week. This is where last year we had our
- 1:24:33Speaker 3: biggest underdog week of the year because the wind was
- 1:24:38Speaker 3: very it was like twenty miles an hour. I can't
- 1:24:40Speaker 3: remember if it was Saturday or Sunday, but it sounds
- 1:24:45Speaker 3: like they reversed the nine. So last year was the
- 1:24:47Speaker 3: back nine, this year it'll be the front nine. But
- 1:24:50Speaker 3: there were two holes. It might have been like fifteen
- 1:24:53Speaker 3: and sixteen or fourteen and fifteen last year. I can't
- 1:24:55Speaker 3: remember exactly what it was. But one goes one direction,
- 1:24:57Speaker 3: the other goes the other direction. And we we knew
- 1:25:00Speaker 3: the wind was shifting one hundred and eighty degrees throughout
- 1:25:03Speaker 3: the day, and Underdog was pricing both holes like the
- 1:25:08Speaker 3: morning for the afternoon guys. And so the one hole
- 1:25:12Speaker 3: was playing like point two under par early and it
- 1:25:16Speaker 3: played point eight over par late. The other was playing
- 1:25:19Speaker 3: point nine over par early and played like I think
- 1:25:22Speaker 3: it was dead even par late. And so we just
- 1:25:25Speaker 3: had these like two holes that they massively, massively, massively mispriced.
- 1:25:30Speaker 3: We're probably not going to get such a perfect opportunity
- 1:25:33Speaker 3: this week and this year they've been doing like back nine,
- 1:25:36Speaker 3: front nine and you know, sixteen through eighteen rather than
- 1:25:40Speaker 3: specific holes like they did last year, maybe because we
- 1:25:43Speaker 3: took so much of their money when they did that.
- 1:25:45Speaker 3: But those kinds of opportunities are still going to come
- 1:25:47Speaker 3: up because when you get overseas, you just get more
- 1:25:50Speaker 3: of a of a weather kind of lens and angle
- 1:25:53Speaker 3: from week to week. And also you get those bigger
- 1:25:56Speaker 3: changes day to day like we almost saw at Chinnacock.
- 1:25:59Speaker 3: But the typically in a PGA Tour event we just
- 1:26:01Speaker 3: don't get. And so I'm very much looking forward to
- 1:26:04Speaker 3: this week from an underdog perspective. And uh and and
- 1:26:07Speaker 3: that makes me a little bit okay if I don't.
- 1:26:09Speaker 2: Have an outright this week.
- 1:26:11Speaker 1: Yeah, I like the Scottie six to one too, Just
- 1:26:13Speaker 1: like you said, somebody's just gotta drop that on him
- 1:26:15Speaker 1: and just see.
- 1:26:15Speaker 2: What I see him to six.
- 1:26:16Speaker 1: Now that's what I'm seeing.
- 1:26:18Speaker 3: Oh man, Okay, so he got he was already showing
- 1:26:20Speaker 3: an edge and now he got even better.
- 1:26:21Speaker 2: Maybe I will have to just bet Scotty.
- 1:26:24Speaker 1: Yeah looks good to me. So yeah, I'm fine with that.
- 1:26:26Speaker 1: I think good good with that. And then the other
- 1:26:30Speaker 1: thing is the.
- 1:26:32Speaker 3: I like the I like the comment from from Nick
- 1:26:36Speaker 3: and the chat. Adam Scott, by the way, was one
- 1:26:39Speaker 3: of the guys who was was close but not quite
- 1:26:41Speaker 3: a good enough bet to make.
- 1:26:43Speaker 1: Maybe that's what we do, We bet both Scotti's Adam Scott,
- 1:26:46Speaker 1: I thot Scotty. It's tough to like really add more
- 1:26:48Speaker 1: to your card. But it's just saying, maybe you get
- 1:26:50Speaker 1: a Adam Scott within each way in there as like
- 1:26:53Speaker 1: a little bonus, and maybe you pick him up both
- 1:26:55Speaker 1: and Scotty wins with Adam Scott right behind him. But
- 1:26:57Speaker 1: I think that's, yeah, a thought just for here. Let's
- 1:27:00Speaker 1: get to our lane for the week, our leverage lane.
- 1:27:03Speaker 1: I'll kick it off. I'm gonna run it back from
- 1:27:05Speaker 1: last week with the fade list. But I will tell
- 1:27:07Speaker 1: you right now, in my main I won't have Nico,
- 1:27:11Speaker 1: i won't have Fitzpatrick, I won't have Rton, and I
- 1:27:13Speaker 1: won't have Chakara. In my two hundred dollars singlentry, I'll
- 1:27:16Speaker 1: give you four this week. I'm gonna take all four
- 1:27:18Speaker 1: of those out. It's mainly just because there's so many
- 1:27:19Speaker 1: constructions I like better, and I also think I'm more
- 1:27:22Speaker 1: comfortable with some of those mid range seven gay guys.
- 1:27:25Speaker 1: We didn't talk about all them, but it's just like
- 1:27:27Speaker 1: noting it like there's just so many guys in the
- 1:27:29Speaker 1: upper sevens and lower sevens that aren't part of that
- 1:27:32Speaker 1: chalk crew that there's like just much better golfers. I'll
- 1:27:34Speaker 1: give you an example of last week instead. But like
- 1:27:36Speaker 1: last week, I remember there's a TWOV two and it
- 1:27:39Speaker 1: was like there was a week before last I can't remember,
- 1:27:42Speaker 1: but it was min Wu and Girard, so it might
- 1:27:43Speaker 1: have been two weeks ago, but it was Minmu and Gerard.
- 1:27:46Speaker 1: Or you could play Hideki and Lowry at the same money,
- 1:27:49Speaker 1: and I already knew about Lowry's Sunday fails, and I
- 1:27:51Speaker 1: was like, you know what, even still I would still
- 1:27:53Speaker 1: rather have Hideki and Lowry for the same money as
- 1:27:56Speaker 1: like Min Wu and Ryan Girard. And it ended up
- 1:27:58Speaker 1: beating it. And it was just you know, two percent
- 1:28:01Speaker 1: and three percent or something like that versus like ten
- 1:28:03Speaker 1: and twelve percent. It's like just such a massive gap.
- 1:28:06Speaker 1: A projection said, you have to play these guys, like
- 1:28:09Speaker 1: that's what I want to lead you to, and it
- 1:28:10Speaker 1: was just like sometimes you just want to go with
- 1:28:12Speaker 1: the better golfers. We've mentioned Fitzpatrick right, and they're having
- 1:28:16Speaker 1: phenomenal seasons, incredible golfers. Like again you're talking about all
- 1:28:19Speaker 1: these great golfers. But when you can split the difference
- 1:28:22Speaker 1: with you know, read Pene, Scott Lowry, Rye again pick
- 1:28:27Speaker 1: your poison. And I'm just saying it's like any of
- 1:28:29Speaker 1: those guys can show up overseas the what the what's
- 1:28:32Speaker 1: the story? Let's just use this one? And he didn't
- 1:28:34Speaker 1: no ownership this week? What is the story with uh
- 1:28:38Speaker 1: Aaron Rye? Well, what the hell's the difference between Aaron
- 1:28:41Speaker 1: Rye and Min Mouleie? You actually get a discount. He
- 1:28:43Speaker 1: won this thing in twenty twenty, and it's been at
- 1:28:46Speaker 1: this course since nineteen. It was the Aberdeen back then
- 1:28:48Speaker 1: versus the Genesis. I get it, But like he had
- 1:28:50Speaker 1: a fourth here two years ago, he had a win
- 1:28:52Speaker 1: recently and eleventh, thirtieth and nineteenth, what's the interest between
- 1:28:55Speaker 1: those two? And you get four hunderd bucks in your pocket?
- 1:28:57Speaker 1: Like it's the same thing.
- 1:28:58Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:28:59Speaker 1: I don't like the like for sure, but just noting it.
- 1:29:02Speaker 3: I don't like the lack of distance. But he's another
- 1:29:04Speaker 3: one of those guys where like, yeah, his iron play
- 1:29:06Speaker 3: does make up for that, and obviously he has the
- 1:29:08Speaker 3: awesome Contention performance score and the field is totally off
- 1:29:11Speaker 3: of him because.
- 1:29:12Speaker 2: Of that lack of distance.
- 1:29:13Speaker 3: Right, So one of the things we always talk about
- 1:29:15Speaker 3: is like, is what you're saying already priced in. Is
- 1:29:18Speaker 3: it priced into the ownership? Is it priced into the
- 1:29:21Speaker 3: actual price? And in Ry's case, it's not necessarily priced
- 1:29:25Speaker 3: into the price, but it is fully priced into the ownership.
- 1:29:28Speaker 3: So you know, the lack of distance certainly isn't an
- 1:29:34Speaker 3: end all be all for him. He can still play
- 1:29:35Speaker 3: really well. He's already Like the other thing is, you
- 1:29:37Speaker 3: know he's done that in the past. He gets on
- 1:29:39Speaker 3: golf courses that the like there's a huge distance signal
- 1:29:43Speaker 3: and he still plays well. Why because he ends up
- 1:29:47Speaker 3: like competitive with the field from one hundred and eighty
- 1:29:50Speaker 3: yards when they're hitting one hundred and forty yards and
- 1:29:52Speaker 3: he's just good enough from that range to stay in it.
- 1:29:54Speaker 2: And so so yeah, I like that call. And yeah,
- 1:29:57Speaker 2: I think it's uh, he.
- 1:29:58Speaker 1: Can make the four or five footers too, we know
- 1:30:00Speaker 1: needs to. It's not because you know, again that's more
- 1:30:01Speaker 1: of a skills that have been putting as a whole
- 1:30:03Speaker 1: if you look at his numbers. But I'm just saying
- 1:30:04Speaker 1: he's obviously very capable. He's decent around the greens. It's
- 1:30:07Speaker 1: like just an example. I'm not saying he's my guy.
- 1:30:09Speaker 1: I'm just saying for those out there thinking from different perspectives. Yeah,
- 1:30:12Speaker 1: outside of the distance and the course fit stuff, he's
- 1:30:15Speaker 1: still got enough that he can make up for it elsewhere.
- 1:30:17Speaker 1: But a lot of the stuff people are citing for
- 1:30:19Speaker 1: min Wus related to, like the other things and the
- 1:30:21Speaker 1: narratives and like those would all be fit by Ry
- 1:30:23Speaker 1: with way better form coming in.
- 1:30:25Speaker 3: So Brandon, my my lovage lane is very similar to yours,
- 1:30:28Speaker 3: and it works really well with yours.
- 1:30:30Speaker 2: Because mine is cheap bombers.
- 1:30:32Speaker 3: And so if you're not playing these the really popular
- 1:30:36Speaker 3: guys around eight K, one of the easy ways to
- 1:30:38Speaker 3: pivot is two cheap bombers and so it's a long
- 1:30:41Speaker 3: list like Adam Scott, Marco Pinch, Jake Knapp NAP's been
- 1:30:44Speaker 3: shouted out by Stump and two others I believe in
- 1:30:47Speaker 3: the chat so far today Coody Thorpe Bjornson Brennan, Rasmus
- 1:30:52Speaker 3: Hoygarden said, and Nikolai like there are lots of really
- 1:30:55Speaker 3: cheap guys who hit the ball along way. Grazerman is
- 1:30:59Speaker 3: another one some of the deep world tour guys that
- 1:31:01Speaker 3: we mentioned, Like, I think Ayura certainly fits that. Del
- 1:31:04Speaker 3: Ray Lindberg if you want to get really kind of
- 1:31:07Speaker 3: off off the board and risky with those guys, although
- 1:31:09Speaker 3: I would argue that maybe those guys are just as
- 1:31:12Speaker 3: risky or even less risky than Rasmus Hoyguard, who is
- 1:31:15Speaker 3: as bomb as boom or bust as like anyone could
- 1:31:19Speaker 3: possibly be in the history of PGA DFS is Rasmus Hoyguard.
- 1:31:24Speaker 3: But yeah, like I wouldn't necessarily go pot Geter because
- 1:31:28Speaker 3: I think he's going to get enough ownership that like,
- 1:31:31Speaker 3: no thanks, but like honestly, like you could go Keefer,
- 1:31:33Speaker 3: you could go Kevin.
- 1:31:34Speaker 2: You down here, there are lots of really good options.
- 1:31:36Speaker 3: Yes, PRIs Vencent's coming up too, He's coming up two
- 1:31:41Speaker 3: really good starts in a row. So like if there's
- 1:31:43Speaker 3: ever a time to play, yesper Like, if you remember
- 1:31:47Speaker 3: earlier in the season, this may have been a discussion
- 1:31:49Speaker 3: I had with Pat actually now that I'm thinking about.
- 1:31:51Speaker 3: But like, the only good event that he had at
- 1:31:55Speaker 3: one point this season was when he went over and
- 1:31:58Speaker 3: uh and played another deep World Tour event. So maybe
- 1:32:00Speaker 3: he just needs to get out of the US. But
- 1:32:03Speaker 3: now you know, he he played well with the at
- 1:32:07Speaker 3: the Byron Nelson then went up to Canada and got forth,
- 1:32:10Speaker 3: So maybe maybe like off of us. Soil really is
- 1:32:12Speaker 3: good for him and this could be good, but I
- 1:32:15Speaker 3: think more so for me rather than that is like, hey,
- 1:32:17Speaker 3: he's actually now strung together two really good tournaments in
- 1:32:19Speaker 3: a row.
- 1:32:20Speaker 2: The driving is certainly what we're looking for.
- 1:32:23Speaker 3: He's one of the longest guys in the field, and
- 1:32:27Speaker 3: this is a golf course that really.
- 1:32:28Speaker 2: Rewards that skill set.
- 1:32:29Speaker 3: So I actually think that he's a pretty good play
- 1:32:31Speaker 3: this week, regardless of ownership. So yeah, I think that's
- 1:32:34Speaker 3: gonna be my Leviage million. That opens the door, by
- 1:32:36Speaker 3: the way, for a potential Scottie lineup, a Rory lineup,
- 1:32:39Speaker 3: something like that. And I do think I will have
- 1:32:43Speaker 3: one of Scotty or Rory unless the unless my ownership
- 1:32:47Speaker 3: really changes, and I actually think that those two are
- 1:32:50Speaker 3: going to get more of the love and it's going
- 1:32:52Speaker 3: to be less of that kind of shoftly Obert Fleetwood
- 1:32:54Speaker 3: tier that currently I expect to get more than those
- 1:32:57Speaker 3: top two studs.
- 1:32:58Speaker 1: Yeah, I love that lane. You guys, we're gonna wrap this,
- 1:33:00Speaker 1: but you gave like a nice list there, but just
- 1:33:01Speaker 1: to show like this is this that I do like.
- 1:33:03Speaker 1: When I hear this stuff and think about it, it's
- 1:33:05Speaker 1: like Okay, well what does that do? Right? Let me
- 1:33:06Speaker 1: actually just not just talk about it. Let's be about
- 1:33:08Speaker 1: it for a second. And you put just two of
- 1:33:09Speaker 1: them in. I just threw a yes for and you
- 1:33:11Speaker 1: two that you talk about playing good lately can bombit
- 1:33:13Speaker 1: out there, have a good spot, like just go with
- 1:33:15Speaker 1: some of what most people would think, like, Okay, now
- 1:33:17Speaker 1: I've got nine thousand and seventy five Scotty seventy four hundred,
- 1:33:22Speaker 1: I'm gonna be able to touch right above and below
- 1:33:24Speaker 1: the instead of eating seventy nine, seventy nine and eight
- 1:33:26Speaker 1: or the seventy six hundred dollars chalk guys, I can
- 1:33:29Speaker 1: keep going with that mid range that I just talked
- 1:33:31Speaker 1: about and be fine. And I'm not even getting too aggressive.
- 1:33:33Speaker 1: I'm just using two. I can go rory eighty one hundred.
- 1:33:36Speaker 1: Now many would land on those same three dudes, but
- 1:33:39Speaker 1: I can also go just below them with some of
- 1:33:41Speaker 1: that crew we talked about, and wherever I land in
- 1:33:43Speaker 1: the upper eight K or maybe even get to a
- 1:33:45Speaker 1: nine K guy, it's possible, or go down to another
- 1:33:47Speaker 1: six K guy. And then if you just want to
- 1:33:49Speaker 1: build the mid range, it's like you can get all
- 1:33:51Speaker 1: the dudes that we talked about in there and just
- 1:33:53Speaker 1: see what that looks like. So there's just so many
- 1:33:55Speaker 1: ways to go with that build and none of it
- 1:33:58Speaker 1: requires Chakara right and Fitzpatrick Holguard And that's just using
- 1:34:04Speaker 1: four very popular names. But that goes back to the
- 1:34:06Speaker 1: earlier one we talked about with like Jackson, coyven, uh,
- 1:34:11Speaker 1: Super Jackson, Super and Novak. It's like, maybe you don't
- 1:34:14Speaker 1: get them all right, but most people have two to
- 1:34:16Speaker 1: three of them in their lineup, and you're you just
- 1:34:18Speaker 1: need like two or three of them to bust and
- 1:34:20Speaker 1: the other one can be fine. You might not need them.
- 1:34:24Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree.
- 1:34:24Speaker 3: I'm chuckling at this, at this comment from Monday Dynamo
- 1:34:28Speaker 3: where it's it's a little bit borderline with the joke,
- 1:34:31Speaker 3: but that that last line I was not expecting and
- 1:34:34Speaker 3: it made me laugh for sure.
- 1:34:35Speaker 1: Yeah, to help them find water. Yeah, he's on Sundays. Uh,
- 1:34:39Speaker 1: it's really bad for Lowry, But yeah, I think it's
- 1:34:41Speaker 1: a good version of leverage Lane Man. I like going
- 1:34:43Speaker 1: through it from this perspective. I think there's a lot
- 1:34:45Speaker 1: of good takeaways. Hopefully everybody enjoyed it. Let the people
- 1:34:48Speaker 1: know a little bit more about where they can find
- 1:34:50Speaker 1: you and then we'll get out of here for today.
- 1:34:52Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I actually do uh kind of the the big,
- 1:34:56Speaker 3: the big announcement here, which is for the rest of
- 1:34:58Speaker 3: the PGA season, all of my ownership and projections are
- 1:35:02Speaker 3: available now in my discord and so definitely find that.
- 1:35:05Speaker 3: And that's where it's going to be for this NFL
- 1:35:08Speaker 3: season and for NFL season like starting in September. That
- 1:35:12Speaker 3: means the prices are going to go up, but anyone
- 1:35:15Speaker 3: who's an existing subscriber will not see a price increase.
- 1:35:18Speaker 3: So I think this is the perfect time to get in.
- 1:35:20Speaker 3: You get in with leverage with promo code, leverage for
- 1:35:23Speaker 3: ten percent off. That promo code will last forever and
- 1:35:26Speaker 3: it will last on the current pricing, and you will
- 1:35:29Speaker 3: get all of the analysis, all of like the really
- 1:35:31Speaker 3: advanced kind of roster construction stuff, and now you will
- 1:35:36Speaker 3: get the ownership and projections perfect time. You get the Scottish,
