00:00 Intro
01:30 I was reviewing my lineups last night and noticed some very low projected players as the last fill-in for NFL showdown. Do I need to filter them post-build as well as pre-build?
04:45 Understanding the DFS Profit Plan
12:35 If we use our own custom projections/ownership for a sport like CFB, would you recommend creating a custom field based on that info to sim against?
16:45 Is there a simple way to explain what differences you think exist in a high-stakes field lineup set used to sim a contest vs a lower-stakes one?
20:10 Can you show that filter you use at the beginning of the show and explain what it does?
22:00 Why isn't information such as the SIM median, maximum, etc., available with the pre-lock SIM information?
