00:00 Intro
01:25 Can you talk about the "sim win rate" in the post lock sims?
10:56 I know variance is very high in DFS, but I have been following the profit plan since starting in October. I had 2 nice wins then profiting around 3.5k. Since then I have lost about 2.5k. Is this normal and I should just stick to my process and follow the profit plan?
13:40 What does your setup look like for single entry contests?
15:42 If I then go to the favorites build will portfolio Plus still run based on my new lineup pool and we'll still use a contest sim to take the beat 40-60 lineups out if my favorites pool?
