00:00 Intro
03:43 I want to try an approach where I am only using players in the starting lineups for the NBA slates. Is there a way to approach this besides waiting until the green light comes and checking each individual player's confirmed status for each individual team?
05:58 If I use direct fill to fill my lineups when filling my Single-Entry and 3-max contests, is the sim selecting entries that are designed for the correct strategy for those contests or is it just picking the highest-ranked lineup from my pool?
10:28 I tried to lock some players I thought would have a good week per the def they are going against, and I saw maybe break-even success.
14:20 When it comes to NFL, what is the number a player has to get to hit value how many fantasy points?
15:48 Why can’t I download my favorites CSV into DraftKings?
18:35 What is the best sorting metric I should use to rank any satellite contest?
21:05 How am I able to get multiple lineups from each build into the contests without having to do it manually?
21:50 Is it any different to sort by ROI than Win Rate?
23:23 When reviewing builds you've done late swaps on, does live sim ROI take over for Sim ROI?
25:46 What are the pros and cons of rerunning contest sims after adjusting min and max exposure?
27:24 Why does NFL DFS give you stacks that you exclude?
33:32 Is it a good idea to just roll with what SaberSim suggests via a build?
41:08 If I have 20 entries, how do I split them up into each contest?
43:15 Any specific guys you really like tonight on this Monday night 2-gamer?
