I agree with everything above. Winning these GPP's in DFS is about fading the big names and nailing someone or a few guys that aren't popular. How much advise do you need to hear someone say take Gurley, Rodgers, A Brown, Kamara, Drees....yada yada yada.
All these tout shows talk about how they love everyone because these guys are playing 100's of lineups. I like the single entry tourneys myself.
It took me 18 months to figure it out...18 months !
I cannot compete with PC whizz kids multi entering 150 line ups in everything over 5 bucks.
I also only play single entry..cause cant compete,stop looking at them huge 1st place payouts in the big gpps,youve no chance unless you are using a core of players and filling in around them...obvs having to use some sort of software.
So,I only played single entry for a year & a half,with little success,about 4 weeks ago,I did something I dont usually do and I looked through the entries in one tournament I was in.
There was a train of 35-40 identical line ups in a SINGLE ENTRY gpp..thought fuck this you cannot get away from the multi accounters,line up sharers.
I stopped playing..3 days later I was thinking about it and went back and looked at the line up they was using,all complete chalk.
Thats when it clicked..get off the chalk...so I dont mind the line up sellers,the line up sharers etc etc.
I can beat 40 people by only beating one line up
Look how far this line up won by last monday !...get off the chalk.
I am terrible at NFL dfs,but its a very small sample..whereas bases is everynight for 6 months a year.
