00:00 Intro
01:30 For NFL specifically, what are some things that the sim/projections don’t account for maybe enough or might give too much weight to?
02:45 Say I wanna run the sim several times adjusting the sliders each run and I wanna batch all the positive ROI lineups from the runs together, would it be better to copy and paste those lineups on another workbook in Excel and save them as CSV to re-upload or just favorite them?
08:20 How would I do the multiple builds for the single-entry vs multi-entry while also making sure each lineup is still unique with no repeats?
12:42 Can you explain Portfolio EV?
14:42 When picking a lineup for Single Entry / High Stakes, is the best approach to play the highest ROI lineup for said contest type?
18:44 When I sort my Prizepicks by top prize, I just saw that you can rank ROI and uniques by each contest. would you recommend changing the ROI and min uniques?
20:50 After you adjust the sim sliders, does anything change with the projections? Are there any changes that you can see?
23:32 Before the new UI change I was doing very well with SaberSim. With the new UI, I am doing horrible. I used to manually enter the top lineups in a contest and then delete them and move on to the next. I am assuming that autofill is doing the same? But if so why is my process no longer profitable?
26:28 Is it worth using min uniques if you are an Ultimate and use exposures?
28:46 I am new to basketball DFS, what is a good video to watch to help get me started?
29:46 Is there a way to tweak a simulated lineup and then have SaberSim give the modified or adjusted lineup a SaberScore?
