0:04All systems gone. Clear for lift up.
0:36What's up everyone? Tyler Tamboline here
0:37aka Totag and Tambo. Back for another
0:40edition of Leverage Lane here on the
0:41Ship Nation YouTube station. Got my guy
0:43Alex Blickl here with me as always. And
0:45we're starting a little bit early. Alex,
0:47you say, you know, if you're early,
0:48you're on time. If you're on time,
0:49you're late. We always try and start at
0:50least before on time, but we got a
0:52little early this week. So, I'm excited
0:54to get it rolling. got a baseball slate
0:55coming up, I believe 12:10 Eastern time.
0:58So, I'll let people get through that. If
0:59you guys have your questions, you can
1:01throw them in the chat. But, we are
1:02going to be breaking down all things for
1:04the final Rocket Classic in Detroit, and
1:06that's going to be the setup there. So,
1:08um I guess the final Rocket Classic, and
1:10it's also in Detroit, but there's been
1:12some major course changes. We will talk
1:14about the um course fit, the weather.
1:16We'll talk about how this sets up now
1:18with the new course changes that I just
1:19talked about. And then we'll also talk
1:20about the chalk builds, how you can
1:22leverage that this week. A little bit of
1:24FGWC recap right quick and then go from
1:27there. But Alex, you missed last week. I
1:28was traveling out to the 3M. There's
1:30definitely some, you know, conversation
1:32to be had there quick, but I will say
1:34the big takeaway for me. We got to play
1:35the course on Monday in the same
1:38conditions.
1:39>> These guys, look, it's spoiler alert,
1:40they're good. These guys are good. It's
1:42like a saying all that stuff. The ball,
1:43you can't find it. If it goes in the
1:45rough, there's going to be balls. If
1:46there was a tournament there, thankfully
1:47there isn't next year because it
1:48wouldn't be looking for our balls that
1:50we lost on Monday on this course because
1:52the rough is it's that's and this is a
1:54course they're shooting 24 under. Man,
1:55you're a golfer. You know what this is,
1:57but man, it is crazy difficult on these
1:59courses and and we were with a scratch
2:00golfer and there's still he had some
2:02amazing shots and then some really bad
2:04ones, too. So, it's crazy how good these
2:06guys are.
2:07>> Yeah, it really is. And uh it's it's
2:09funny like one of the things that I
2:11always look at is course rating and
2:13slope. Like if if you play a lot of
2:16golf, if you keep a handicap, you know
2:17about course rating and slope.
2:18Essentially, it measures like how
2:20difficult the golf course is. And some
2:22of the courses on tour that we think of
2:24is like these birdie fests. When you
2:26actually go play those courses, the
2:28first thing you'll notice is, "Oh my
2:29god, this rating and slope is like the
2:31highest I've ever seen. It's it's such a
2:33long course. Like how are they shooting
2:34these kinds of scores?" It's cuz they're
2:36that damn good. And yeah, the the
2:38courses that actually do challenge them,
2:40think about how tough they have to be uh
2:43in comparison to the ones that we think
2:44of as like Birdie Fests that are
2:46actually like, oh, it's a course rating
2:47of 78. So, like, you know, a scratch
2:49golfer is going to shoot six over or
2:51something like that, right? So, yeah,
2:52it's it's incredible how good they are.
2:54And uh I'm glad you had a a fun
2:56experience. I know it wasn't the the
2:58outcome you you totally wanted, but I we
3:00we talk about it all the time, and I've
3:02told you this many times, ju just
3:03getting there is such a ridiculously
3:05cool accomplishment. So hopefully uh you
3:08still feel really proud of that. And it
3:09it's kind of the same I think as winning
3:11tickets, right? It's like you're only
3:13going to all you can control is how many
3:15chances you give yourself and then once
3:17you get there you kind of just have to
3:18hope things break your way.
3:19>> That's the key, right? It's not I loved
3:20it. The winner Woodward was just an
3:22awesome dude Matt and he had said even
3:23in his little interview after the win,
3:25he had three entries going in and he was
3:27he was up there. He looked like a huge
3:29um opportunity to win and then Saturday
3:31had these really low scores and he was
3:32like, "Oh shit." and then people caught
3:33up to him and so he really had to sweat
3:35Sunday but ultimately in the end he came
3:37through which was awesome to see but he
3:38said like this doesn't define me like
3:40it's a it's a win it's huge he's very
3:42thankful and excited and happy and was
3:44just a really modest down to earth guy
3:45but he said like you know if he didn't
3:47win he's played poker for years like
3:49this is your ups and downs you just have
3:50to keep putting yourself in the position
3:51to make that happen and you know back in
3:532024 I came 47th I look at it as like to
3:56yo 18th is quite an accomplishment and
3:58also I was with you on the Doug Gim hey
4:00hate came out of the spa on Friday
4:02morning. I'm thinking, "Oh, I'm all
4:04good." My VIP rep is like, "Oh, man. It
4:06looks like you'll at least get a five of
4:07six." And then next hole is hole 17 for
4:10Doug Gim and he makes that double. And
4:11it was just really, really bad after
4:13that. I I could have made it without Max
4:16McGrevy. He was in there and he missed
4:18the cut at one off the the line at two
4:19under. But
4:21>> I thought I had Gim. And Gim was a
4:22separator, right? Only six people in the
4:24tournament had him of the 50. And so I
4:27had a crazy run out. But I will say
4:29this, the Sunday I got Alex was insane
4:32because I have a four a four or six. I'm
4:34thinking it's like a minash at best. I
4:36got the Bez with the all four under 70.
4:39I got the Zack Blair um all four under
4:4270. He needed like a birdie at the end
4:44and he almost had an eagle try. He never
4:46even goes for it any of the days. The
4:47last day he goes for it and sticks it. I
4:49was like, "Okay, that's amazing." And
4:51then McNeely had the low Saturday and
4:53then the and the really low or sorry the
4:55low Sunday. So that helped. And then
4:57lastly was the winner, Quivven. So I did
4:58have the winner on the lineup, which was
5:00nice. Um, just didn't quite fully get
5:02there, but best live final, maybe second
5:04best live final I've ever been at. There
5:06was one other, but uh, you know, it
5:07doesn't really matter. Just noting it.
5:08This was a great experience all around.
5:10Like you said, it's fun just to be
5:11there. So I'll have a bigger recap over
5:13on DFS mastermind. You guys go
5:15dfsmastermind.com. I always recap my
5:17live final events with pictures and
5:18breakdowns of the lineups and theory and
5:20how I played it and whatever. But I felt
5:22really good about how I played. I was
5:23never moving off Doug Gim with my
5:25process. And people again, it's not
5:26about the pick and the play, it was the
5:28process. I was on him and that's what
5:30happens, man. I know he hurt you as
5:31well.
5:32>> Yeah, it was brutal. It It made it even
5:35more brutal. Like he made a 19footer or
5:36something on his first hole on Friday to
5:38get to three under. It's like, all
5:39right, he's there. All we need him to do
5:42is play even par the rest of the day on
5:43a really, really easy golf course in
5:46perfect scoring conditions. And he just
5:48had one of his worst ball striking
5:50rounds in years. Uh it was uh it was
5:52actually like his short game in putting
5:54that actually kept him at three under
5:56late in the round and then and then yeah
5:58the water ball in 17 was just a a real
6:01kick in the dick if you will. So that
6:03was uh that was not fun but still really
6:05good week and uh yeah lots of really
6:07exciting things. It's also I think like
6:09uh this is the part of the year where we
6:11might start to see some week one NFL
6:13tickets in the lobby uh sometime soon.
6:16So also keep your eye out for that. And
6:18uh it's yet another reason to be just as
6:20into MLB DFS this time of year as uh as
6:23PGA.
6:23>> Yeah, I didn't see it yet. I've been
6:25waiting all weekend because I got to
6:26assume like August 1. I mean, NFL
6:27pricing is coming soon. We always get it
6:29super early. That's why everybody
6:30complains about week one because like
6:31all the pricing, it's been out for a
6:32month and blah blah blah, but it's
6:33coming soon, but they got to get those
6:34tournaments out there. So, I'm expecting
6:36a very big um start to the year. Also,
6:39they teased the fantasy football world
6:41championship while we were there, just
6:42just of note. So that is um going to be
6:45in Miami this year in South Beach and
6:48it's going to be I think they said the
6:49biggest prize pool ever. So there's
6:51still again people talk about DFS and
6:52grow like football's never going away
6:54and it's actually only getting bigger.
6:55So I'm excited about that one. Let's
6:57talk about these course changes. We're
6:58going to skip the topic of the week for
7:00this one. You know we recaped some. I
7:01I'll go more into it on DFS mastermind.
7:03You guys have questions throw them out
7:04there. But I will say let's talk about
7:05these course changes. $16 million put
7:08into changing this course. This was why
7:10I said what I mentioned earlier, like
7:12you said, very easy golf course to your
7:13point for the pros, not as easy as you
7:16think, but also be like, well, score
7:17there's the scores aren't going to be um
7:19as low this year. Well, no [ __ ] They
7:21literally took away par fives and stuff,
7:22but it's the scoring. And again, from an
7:24Eagles perspective, yeah, you might lose
7:26some Eagles out there, things like that.
7:28But I just mean in general, they're
7:29still going to beat the course up for
7:31what the par number has been moved to.
7:33And I honestly don't know what your
7:35thoughts are, but I just don't know if
7:37they can make these courses, you know,
7:39as hard as people say or think they can.
7:41We've seen this before just too many
7:42times like, "Oh, they made all these
7:44changes. This should be a real
7:45challenge." And it's like, nope, they
7:46just destroy it. So, any thoughts from
7:48you on this? And I I'm sure you've got a
7:50lot. So, I'll let you go into it.
7:52>> Yeah, I'm I'm trying to think of where I
7:53want to start. Uh I I think the first
7:55place to start is we should recognize
7:58that the test that the course presents
8:01these players doesn't change just
8:03because you take a 540 yard par five and
8:06turn it into a 500 yard par4. I guess
8:09the scores aren't going to be quite as
8:10low. So you know uh in the past let's
8:13say 26 under one now it would be 18
8:16under because you're taking two par
8:18fives a day and and turning them into
8:20par fours. that's still a pretty low
8:22score um for for a winning score, but
8:25more importantly, it's the fact that the
8:27way the golfers are being tested is the
8:29exact same from that change. So, uh
8:32there are other changes that I do think
8:33will be a little bit meaningful. It
8:35seems like the green complexes are a
8:37little bit more challenging um both from
8:39around the green standpoint and then
8:41also making putts. Uh the I think the
8:44the biggest point that I want to make is
8:47Donald Ross courses are unique. He has a
8:49very kind of unique style uh of golf
8:52course. I actually played a couple
8:54Donald Ross courses like uh kind of
8:57consistently in college and I did not
9:00like either one of them. Like I you know
9:02they just weren't tailored for my game.
9:04I struggled to kind of understand the
9:06best way to approach them because they
9:08definitely require more strategy than
9:09just go out there and hit good golf
9:11shots. Uh, so one of the splits that I'm
9:14looking at this week because I actually
9:15found it to be really predictive is
9:17performance on other Donald Ross
9:19courses. And that includes a bunch of
9:21major championship like one-off courses,
9:23but then it's also here and Sedgefield.
9:26And interestingly, like one of the
9:28things you'll notice when you kind of
9:30read about the course changes this week
9:32is that a lot of it was restoring the
9:35initial Donald Ross plan, the initial
9:37Donald Ross design, especially around
9:38the green and uh you know, with fairway
9:40bunkers off the tea that actually are in
9:43play for some guys, maybe not the
9:44longest guys. So, we'll talk more about
9:46distance in a minute, but interestingly,
9:50historically, you have been you've been
9:53better off predicting performance here
9:55at the Rocket Classic by looking at
9:58performance at Sedgefield for the Windom
10:01than looking at past performance at the
10:03Rocket Classic itself. Because what
10:05little like Ross characteristics there
10:07were are more prevalent at Sedgefield
10:10than they have been here. that probably
10:12will change moving forward because now a
10:13lot of the Ross like design has been
10:15restored but I found that to be really
10:18really interesting. Uh so you know
10:20Donald Ross specialist is something that
10:21I'm really looking at this week. Uh same
10:23with easy conditions and same with
10:25treelined courses. Uh the other point I
10:28want to make about treeline courses. Um
10:31Ron uh PJs splits 101 had some really
10:34cool pictures just kind of following
10:36some guys around in practice rounds this
10:38week and there was one really really
10:40good one that I think tells the the
10:41story of why treeine courses can be
10:43predictive because it's not like there
10:45are a million trees here. It's not like
10:47when you miss you're always going to be
10:49missing in trees and chipping out
10:50sideways like you do at RBC's Heritage
10:53for example. But one of the kind of
10:56obstacles that trees present you and and
10:59this picture was of Cam Young and you
11:00can just see like he's hitting through
11:02this chute of trees, the other thing
11:04that trees do is that they force you to
11:07play specific shot shapes off TE's and
11:10you can't just hit like a banana cut or
11:12a banana draw when you want to because
11:14the ball can't fly through trees
11:15obviously. And so I thought that that
11:16was a really cool thing that again
11:18showed a lot of predictive value here.
11:20But at the end of the day, uh I do
11:22expect distance to continue to be really
11:24predictive. This has always been a
11:25bombers course. I think the changes were
11:29kind of made trying to prevent that from
11:32being the case, but the rough is not
11:33that bad. Uh it sounds like it's patchy.
11:36It sounds like uh you know one of the
11:38kind of biggest potential avenues for
11:41making uh this more of an accuracy
11:44course than a bombers course was if the
11:46greens were really really firm which is
11:47often the case when you renovate greens
11:49and you put new greens in but all
11:52reports are that they're actually pretty
11:54soft uh surprisingly and so I do expect
11:57this to be a bombers course once again
11:59uh especially if there are certain
12:02fairway bunkers that were put in place
12:03where they're saying okay Now, now it's
12:06going to make guys be strategic or play
12:08around these bunkers and oops, you know,
12:10the top 10% of distance guys can still
12:12just carry those bunkers and take them
12:13out of play. Like that could actually
12:14mean that distance is going to be more
12:16predictive now than it's been in the
12:18past here. So, I definitely want to lean
12:21uh on bombers as much as I can while
12:23looking at guys who play well on Donald
12:25Ross courses, while looking at guys who
12:26play well on treeine courses. And easy
12:29conditions are another split that's been
12:31really, really predictive here in the
12:33past. And again, just because the scores
12:35aren't going to reflect such easy
12:36conditions now because you have some
12:38parfs and a par fours like the golf
12:39course, the test is the same. So, I do
12:41expect easy conditions to continue to be
12:43really predictive.
12:44>> One thing I want to ask is Ron post a
12:45ton of great stuff and you know when I
12:47was there a couple years ago, we get to
12:48meet Ron at the Fantasy Golf World
12:49Championship when it was in um Detroit
12:51for the Rocket Mortgage Classic at the
12:52time in 2024 and he was going through
12:54some stuff then and showing it all to
12:56us. But this time around, he did mention
12:58that point you talked about on the
13:00greens being softer, especially for new
13:01greens. um and renovated and everything
13:04put in. But he also, it was either him
13:06or somebody else that mentioned they
13:07watered them Tuesday night. How how
13:09quick can those greens in your opinion
13:11go from people saying they're softer to
13:14being the firmness we expected versus,
13:16you know, over the next two days?
13:18Because this was like Wednesday morning
13:19when that got posted uh or sorry,
13:21Tuesday morning, I think it was from
13:22Monday night he was saying, and then
13:23Tuesday morning that report was posted.
13:26Well, now they're going to golf tomorrow
13:27morning, another, you know, another day
13:28from now. So, how quick can those things
13:30tighten up and firm up?
13:32they can, but I would be I'd be really
13:35surprised if they don't continue to
13:36water throughout the week. Uh, and then
13:39on Saturday overnight, so before
13:41Saturday, it looks like the they're
13:43going to get some storms. So, at most
13:44you're probably going to get Thursday
13:46and Friday without any water.
13:48>> Like I said, I think they're going to be
13:49watering each day. So, um, I would
13:51expect them to be soft throughout. And
13:53the other thing is like
13:55it's important to remember that the
13:58difference between like really soft and
14:01kind of neutral or even a little bit
14:03firm greens isn't that much. Where you
14:07actually get like a big effect is when
14:09you get to like, you know, Bay Hill at
14:11its firmst where balls are taking a huge
14:14first bounce, especially if they're
14:16coming out of the rough with no spin,
14:17like they're just going to topple
14:18forward. Uh I I think it's an extremely
14:21low chance that we we see anything like
14:23that here this week.
14:24>> All right. As far as the weather goes
14:26this week, I mean it ties to it a little
14:27bit because you just mentioned the
14:28storms and that on the weekend, but you
14:30know, potential all these other factors,
14:31but coming in, don't really see much. Is
14:33there anything that you wanted to key in
14:34on with the weather before we get to
14:36start looking at the the chalk build?
14:39>> No, I it doesn't look like it's going to
14:41be uh too interesting. you know, uh,
14:45light winds, gusts under 20 miles per
14:47hour each of the first two days, maybe
14:49even less the second day. So, uh, it
14:51doesn't seem to me like weather is going
14:53to be part of the story at all this
14:55week.
14:55>> Yeah. So, we're going to bring it up in
14:56a minute. We are going to go to the
14:57Stone 2.0 over at Shipment Nation. This
14:59will be the rough draft. We'll break it
15:00down. I got the optimal up and then
15:02we'll look down from there at what we're
15:03doing. Before I get into that, I do want
15:05to remind everybody, so just under I
15:07think it's just over three weeks, I
15:08should say now that, you know, shout out
15:09to the big guy in the sky. We've got the
15:11big guy event in Las Vegas celebrating
15:14James Degenerate75. Many of you know him
15:16as we will be in Las Vegas for f the
15:18weekend of this, but the event is
15:21Friday, August 21st, 7:30 to 10:30 p.m.
15:24You can go to shipnation.comthe,
15:27it's the bigguy event with dashes
15:29the-bux
15:32totagambo, the links there, or DM me if
15:35you want details on how to get down to
15:36this thing. But um it's going to be a
15:38good time. We've got the whole Detroit
15:39ballroom rented out. So that's on the
15:4112th floor. We've had some gettogethers
15:42in the past when James was here with us,
15:44but this will just really be a night to
15:46celebrate and remember him. The entire
15:48DFS community or any fantasy sports
15:50players out there, anyone who wants to
15:51sort of come celebrate and remember
15:53James are welcome to the event. It's not
15:54just for Shipet Nation or anything like
15:56that. It's put on for everybody. There's
15:58drinks, there's appetizers, there's uh,
16:00you know, memorial video, maybe some
16:02games or a signature drink with
16:04ranchwaters and all the stuff that the
16:06big guy would want. His his mom's going
16:07to be there. There's just a lot of
16:09different things that uh you know, you
16:10should be a part of it if you can be. I
16:12know not everybody can make it, but be
16:14sure to go check out the the site or
16:15just hit me up directly and we'll go
16:17from there. If you guys want to join
16:19Shipment Nation, you can get in right
16:20now. $49 for your first month. Get the
16:23rest of sort of golf through the
16:24playoffs. We've got all the baseball
16:26going on. Um NBA or sorry, um NFL just
16:29around the corner, but I will say uh
16:32Jordan did mention it. So, I saw it in
16:33MLB they do got the 44 44 mega tickets.
16:36There is a few satellites now, but it's
16:38not posted yet for NFL, but that will be
16:40obviously week one that we see that. The
16:42question is, do we see like a $10 and a
16:44$100? Do we see a $25 as usual and cut
16:46it off? Do we see the big $5 with like
16:48800 million people? Probably. So, that
16:50probably makes it up. So, maybe it's
16:51like the $5, the $20, and the 444. But
16:54that's just something to keep in the
16:56back of your mind like Alex said, if
16:57you're you're checking that stuff out.
16:59This is the optimal that I have right
17:02now. Anyway, Alex, again, the rough
17:03draft, ownership's not final, nothing
17:05like that. But you you see got her up
17:07sew you see Spawn who's definitely
17:09popping as a guy in the 8K range this
17:11week. I'm not sure if Davis Thompson
17:13will get as much love, but he'll get
17:15some this week for sure. And then Sunj
17:17is a projections popper. Um I'm the
17:20biggest Sunj fan of his all of probably
17:22anyone. I know why he wore the Sunj him
17:25Melbourne sweater last week on Thursday
17:27because I don't know if he was getting
17:28to I mean this guy just doesn't have it
17:30still right now. Maybe this will be the
17:32week and because he it looks like the
17:34week on paper. Everyone's saying it's
17:35going to be his week on paper. I thought
17:37it was funny in your Discord. I think it
17:39was Donnie Donnie being the man. He
17:41posted like, "Wow, Sunday stuff is
17:43improving. His iron game is really
17:44improving. Check it out." And he has the
17:45chart. It's like
17:47>> red 130th, red 120th, red 114th, red
17:51107. It's like he's But he's improving
17:53though. Give me your thoughts on this
17:54lineup. And you can give the Sunj jabs
17:56as well if you want. Yeah, I think uh I
17:59think this is definitely the the type of
18:01structure that we're going to see. Uh I
18:03think ownership's going to be pretty
18:04balanced up top. So like uh I do think
18:06Cam might separate a little bit, but
18:08then all of Xander, Godup, Seiwoo,
18:10Windham, uh Kantlay, Ben Griffin, Jake
18:13Knap, JJ Spawn, and then a little bit of
18:15Ryan Gerard. Like I think all of these
18:16guys are going to get a decent amount.
18:19And so we'll probably see most lineups
18:21have minimum two, probably three, maybe
18:25even four of those guys. Uh and and then
18:29uh you know based on how many of those
18:31guys you get a secondary level of chalk
18:33like in the in the lower 8ks where
18:35you've got a hoygard Thor Bj Bjornson
18:38Bridgemond Keegan Davis Thompson as you
18:40mentioned Jackson Suber Cory Connors and
18:42then down in the values uh I think we'll
18:44see Kohl's and Meisner probably get uh
18:46maybe like the the two most popular down
18:48here. Some on Michael Kim, some on
18:50Jordan Smith, some on Sun JM. So yeah,
18:53pretty much in lock step with you. Um,
18:56but I will say like this is such a
18:58surprisingly strong field and and I
19:01think the fact that there's no Scotty
19:03has helped pricing where it it at least
19:06doesn't seem like anyone is massively
19:08underpriced or massively overpriced to
19:10that point. And so I think uh it's going
19:12to be a week where for the most part
19:15like
19:17you don't have to spend a ton of time
19:19thinking about ownership this week
19:21because as long as you're in certain
19:23sections of the pricing down the board
19:25like the the highest for example that I
19:28have under $8,500 is ash at 14.9% in
19:33single entries. So you're just not
19:35running into the kind of chalk that
19:36we've seen in past weeks.
19:38>> Yeah. Like I just threw up another
19:39version of it because you that was too
19:40that I saw as well like Meisner and Cole
19:42look like they'll pick up some steam and
19:44and that's just people like to play
19:45Meisner. The the other thing is there's
19:47some like weird pricing factor. So
19:49anyway, like just to finalize it, I do
19:50think Sunj's popping enough in the
19:52projections that we can move them up
19:53some like our ownership will come up on
19:54them for sure. Meisner and Cole are guys
19:56in there. Like you say, we'll be a
19:57little bit more spread out even up top.
19:59But just noting it, this type of build
20:02seems pretty common. And I know like you
20:03can get to three 9ks instead of JJ
20:05Spawn. Sure. You can do the Cam Young
20:07and then skip over the 9Ks or even play
20:10them. But I love what you said like the
20:11the other thing too is like I don't know
20:14how to explain like last week the field
20:16was
20:18buoied or I I guess it was like pushed
20:20because of Scotty Sheffler. Like you you
20:22added Scotty to the mix, but after that
20:24it was like the I think it was like
20:26Brian Kersner. This these people tried
20:27to like make fun of him and said like he
20:28said this event sucks and they're like
20:30well this event doesn't suck. It's got
20:31Scotty Sheffller and Tony Fee now. And I
20:33was like okay you just put your own foot
20:34in your mouth when you said that. He was
20:36not even being that harsh on them, but
20:38Kersner, but they were like saying he
20:40was saying, but it kind of was a rough
20:42field after Scotty. Like it was awesome.
20:44Like I I'm telling you how I was there.
20:45It was phenomenal to be there for
20:46Kovven's first win. The the atmosphere
20:48was electric. Like when it was Scotty
20:50and Hideki on Saturday, yes, Hideki
20:52would have been the guy I would have
20:52said, by the way, not Tony Fen now, but
20:54just noting it. Nothing against Tony,
20:55but that was part of it. But there was a
20:58lot of good DFS plays, meaning guys that
21:00we know and play every week and we're
21:02like trying to talk about. That's what I
21:04feel about this event. It's It's a
21:05little stronger up top with like yes, no
21:07Scotty, but Cam Young, X, Scott, Siwu,
21:10Quan, Clark, all like yes, much much
21:12better that way, but I'm seeing the the
21:15part that makes it more fun to me from a
21:17DFS perspective is okay. Well, what
21:20about like Deki did play good last week,
21:22can't Lacier, what about Nap incredible
21:24Sunday watching that round spawn? Okay,
21:27like him. Batia, he's exciting. Hoggar
21:29like oh wait, Thor is here still. And
21:31boom, I can do that for the 7K range,
21:33too. And then you even get into the
21:35sixes. And I'm not saying a lot of
21:36people are going to end up there because
21:37the standard um roster construction, but
21:40don't tell me people aren't thinking
21:41about playing some, you know, Chris
21:43Kirk, some Lee Hajes, some Mau people
21:45like Max McGrevy. Um there's a bunch of
21:48other names down here. Sergeant, uh you
21:50know, the the the conversation around
21:51him and Kven, right, being the two
21:53prospects. And then, you know, you got
21:54Stout out there and other guys, too. But
21:55just Poey and and then the other thing
21:58too is some of the pricing. So Bez was
22:02like 80 something last week. 8 Y
22:05>> 700. Was he? No, he was 7,900 I guess.
22:07Sorry. 7,900. Yeah.
22:08>> But he had a decent week and he drops to
22:1173 and some other guys around him were
22:13are higher now. Meisner, you know,
22:15missed the cut as this. Kohl's decent
22:17week and he's down. Graser insane Sunday
22:20down to 7,300. Neargard down from 77. So
22:23like it still changed some of the
22:25pricing around. And then guys like Doug
22:26Gim who missed the cut.
22:28>> Kefir missed the cut. a lot of missed
22:30the cut guys. Suber missed the cut.
22:32Pearson Cudy missed the cut. Brennan
22:34screwed people on Sunday. All their
22:35prices are down, too. So, I don't know.
22:37I think it's a really fun DFS slate and
22:39I think this is going to be good to talk
22:41about. Is there anything else with the
22:42chalk build or any of those comments
22:43that you want to sort of run through
22:44before we hop in, but I do see that like
22:47maybe we look at quickly a Cam Young
22:48version. Anything else you see?
22:51Not really. I think uh
22:55because again like ownership can be so
22:59spread out once you get past like JJ
23:02Spawn and and Ryan Gerard kind of where
23:04the the one thing I I do think is worth
23:06looking at is let's see what a build
23:08looks like if you try and get four of
23:10those top guys in instead of just three.
23:12So like what if you started with spawn
23:15nap uh Kentlay as the most expensive and
23:18then uh like Ben Griffin or Hideki or
23:22someone like that. What what does that
23:23leave for those final two spots?
23:25>> I'm going to go spawn nap can't lay
23:28Henley in a second. I just want to show
23:29something quickly though for um those
23:32looking at this like again I don't know
23:33I think we said it was spawn this is
23:35with a 6K guy but this is with Young and
23:38Godup by the way. Right. So, just of
23:40note, all I was trying to show is we'd
23:41said, what's his name? Cole. I won't
23:43even round it out, but you you can also
23:44go like if you put the Cam Young version
23:47in here and say, "Okay, I'm not going to
23:48play Spawn because he's going to be so
23:50popular." Well, even if you do like the
23:52Sunj Meisner Cole thing we did at the
23:54bottom, you're still in that mid and and
23:56I know nobody might want to l I think
23:58the chalk version of this was people
23:59said Keegan Bradley, right? And it's
24:01very close to the number. But just to
24:03note it, this is not that different from
24:05the build we just looked at. It's just a
24:06different version of it, right?
24:08>> Yeah.
24:09>> All right. All right. So, let's go back.
24:10Let's go. Clark, Kantlay, would you say
24:13God got her up? Nap or nap?
24:16Any of those uh top four guys.
24:21>> It's probably I mean just for what
24:23people can fit though,
24:25it's probably this, right? This I guess
24:28this would be the version of it and I'll
24:29let you play with it, but like Clark.
24:32>> Yeah. I mean, that's breakdown of it.
24:34And I'm going to put Novak because
24:36people love Novak at these. Well, they
24:38loved him at the John Deere Classic.
24:39Maybe they'll hate him here, but he's
24:40$7,100. So, and it looks like they will
24:43from an ownership perspective, but just
24:44to give you an idea, that's close, but
24:47then you will have to dip into the sixes
24:49if you're doing more than that with
24:50these AK guys.
24:52>> Yeah. So I I think what would happen is
24:53I think a lot of people would go from
24:55Clark there down to Hideki so that they
24:58can get up to Meisner or Kohl's as that
25:01last guy in um but but yeah so
25:04essentially like the the main point here
25:05is just this isn't difficult to do,
25:07right? Like you can do this while still
25:09playing some of the most popular uh
25:11quote unquote highest probability cheap
25:13guys. And so I I do think that we're
25:15going to see lineups like this as well.
25:17So, I just think it's an important point
25:19to make that like
25:22it just because we said, "Hey, the the
25:23most common lineup is going to have two
25:24or three of those top guys." Like, if
25:26your thought is, "Oh, I'm going to get
25:27four of those top guys instead." You
25:29that's that's not separating you in any
25:31way. So, I think this is the kind of
25:32lineup that we we also need to kind of
25:35keep in mind and try to uh leverage off
25:37of. And so, um so yeah, again, like I
25:40don't think um I don't think this is
25:42really a week where like roser
25:44construction is the way to get
25:45different. It's like you you actually
25:47have to do it by uh the the players that
25:50you use.
25:51>> Yeah, I think that's a key component
25:52there too because the other thing is so
25:53this just shows and I think now people
25:55have seen it enough. It's up on the
25:56screen or we talked through it. I mean
25:57this one was finished out on Kantlay
25:59Hideki. Uh it could have been I guess it
26:02could be Henley Hideki or it could be
26:04like Clark Ben Griffin. Whatever you
26:06guys decide but that's like you say
26:07you're not really getting that. Well
26:08technically I went to 38K. Like you kind
26:10of did but you kind of didn't. And so
26:12like if I'm going AK, one of my quick
26:14ones just, you know, early on, I would
26:15say for sure, actually, I'll wait
26:17because I'm going to save it, but I'll
26:18keep going through it with you here. My
26:20my takeaway though would be that none of
26:21these lineups are seeing the 6K range.
26:24Even if you do go all the way up to who,
26:27you know, is probably the most owned
26:28just because he's easy to fit in many
26:29ways. But Cam Young, uh, I don't know,
26:31you you could see like some of these, if
26:33somebody picks like a Godup, I showed
26:34you how easy it was to still get these
26:36two. You could actually see where God
26:37got her up is higher owned than Young or
26:40something just because he fits starting
26:43the build plus going into the build. If
26:45I don't know if people I don't think
26:48Quinn's going to stay, but if Clark gets
26:49love, you know what's he right now?
26:52Yeah, I don't know. I think I think it's
26:54about that. Yeah, I think it's between
26:55these two and it just depends on if more
26:57people decide to go with the balance
26:58version than the one we talked about.
27:00And then keep in mind like Alex always
27:01talks about if you're starting it with
27:04God up a lot more of those lineups are
27:06going to have JJ spawn
27:08>> because it we just showed you that's
27:10what oh I don't if you don't even above
27:11you can fit the 8K and then the more
27:13popular AK guys get pushed into more of
27:15those lineups. If you start with these
27:16two it's less likely that there's an 8K
27:19guy at all. So to Al to Alex's point,
27:21you can look at a bunch of different
27:22angles, but I think there's something to
27:23be said for this week for the new
27:26course, everything we talked about so
27:27far on the show, the new course, the
27:29roster construction thing we just
27:30mentioned, all these factors, the
27:32pricing, the DFS darlings of like
27:33there's so many of them in the field,
27:35all of that. to think about that. I
27:37don't know if just skill stacking but
27:38almost like what you think how the field
27:40is going to play because if you if you
27:43get it right there might only be a
27:45smaller pool like like for example and I
27:47know a lot of guys bomb it for sure but
27:48if you want I'm just going with the
27:49easiest one if you said okay I'm going
27:50to stick with bombers no matter what
27:52anyone says then and you've got all good
27:55good lineups with um the bombers you can
27:57make your pool that much smaller that
27:59much quicker to work off of if if that's
28:01what you decide if you said to your
28:03point on the splits yeah I like all
28:04these splits these three stand out and
28:07it'd be nice to have somebody who's good
28:08in all three of the splits that you
28:10mentioned, but you someone might say,
28:12you know what, Alex really hit home with
28:14me when he talked about the treelined
28:15setup here. So, I'm going to find guys
28:17within the treeline splits that also
28:20have good projections that also have
28:22good this and I'm going to stick with
28:23that. And then if that's right, and
28:25these trees do become a factor, I'm just
28:26throwing things out there, but you get
28:27what I'm saying. To me, that's where you
28:29get different. It might still not be in
28:31the end, it's always the picks in the
28:33result. Like I say, the the the picks
28:35are a result of the process, though. And
28:37the process to me would be how I just
28:38explained it. If you're right, you could
28:41be all the way right because you've
28:42already brought your player pool size
28:43down a ton. And I've talked about that
28:45for years about building in sets. That's
28:47how I look at it. You get to shrink your
28:49player pool immediately if you go with
28:51that angle. And I don't think this is a
28:53bad week to do that because this is a
28:55week where there's a lot of unknowns
28:57beyond that. And then there's a lot of
28:58names. So people can get overwhelmed
29:00with that, right? Like, well, I I like
29:02this guy. I like this guy. I heard this
29:03guy. It's a lot of that, too.
29:05>> Yeah. I think one of the most important
29:07points that you made there was like you
29:09want that to work directionally in your
29:11favor where it's not dependent on that
29:14thesis playing out exactly that way.
29:16It's like this lineup is good
29:18regardless. And if the the treeine
29:21splits end up being a really big piece
29:24of this or if Donald Ross courses end up
29:26being like even more predictive in than
29:27they were in the in the past here, my
29:30lineup goes from being good to even
29:32better and I'm not counting on that
29:35being the thing that makes it a good
29:37lineup. It's already a good lineup.
29:38That's just the thing that could take it
29:40over the top. So, I think that's a
29:41that's a really good way of putting
29:43that.
29:43>> Such a huge factor and and that's why we
29:45talk about this all the time, but like
29:46this is what DFS Mastermind is all
29:48about. That's the foundation. So, Alex
29:50and I got two things going on
29:51separately. And this is one of them.
29:52Like DFS mastermind, you can go there,
29:55you can join it, you can just get the
29:56modules for less than 50 bucks if you
29:58want to go start off. If you want all of
30:00the courses and the entire setup, you
30:02can get it for 4.97. You can use the 47
30:04bucks towards that. But that's the once
30:06a month round table Q&A, the Discord,
30:09all the pro interviews, the podcast
30:11feed, etc., etc. But the idea behind
30:13this is to teach what you just talked
30:14about. How it's not That's why I would
30:16say it's not the picks and the plays.
30:17It's it's not who you play, it's how you
30:19play them. That's the thought process
30:21around that.
30:22>> But then you take something like you do
30:24in your Discord with the splits and your
30:26your site that's up now that people can
30:28check out like that. That's kind of the
30:29setup where you can then say, "Okay, I
30:32learned the concept from mastermind, but
30:35now I'm going to go apply it via the
30:36other stuff." if a lot of people that
30:38you know just have splits or just have
30:39something they're just kind of guessing
30:40on stuff but they're not thinking about
30:42the roster construction in a different
30:43way to what you just pointed out there.
30:45So it's kind of like you got to combine
30:47those two to be able to get yourself to
30:49where you're like I'm playing a really
30:50good lineup but it also is going to be
30:52even better if this happens or I'm
30:54playing it because of this but it's
30:55actually good even if that doesn't
30:57happen. And and that's where people are
30:58like well if I hadn't have known that I
30:59would have done this or if I you just
31:01you might not think like that yet. And
31:03you'd be surprised, man, how many people
31:04I got to meet at the fantasy golf world
31:06championship that were, you know, first
31:07time at a live final. They just start
31:09explaining their process and telling
31:11you. And I'll tell you what, the most
31:12common thing that was said was, "People
31:16don't like to pay tuition, but in this
31:18game, you have to." And that was
31:20basically the words one guy used that
31:21others echoed it in a different way. But
31:23they said like, "Man, I I just lost a
31:25bunch of money and I I wanted to, you
31:26know, I learned the game, but I I paid
31:27for Discords. I paid for places that I
31:29could learn and I I play I paid to try
31:31and figure this game out just like I
31:33would anything else. If I was learning
31:34golf, I would go get a golf instructor
31:36and pay them money. If I want to, you
31:38know, learn how to drive a car, I go buy
31:40driving school classes and then I go be
31:42able to drive a vehicle and take it on
31:43the road. Like you you pay for that
31:46extra that you can sort of learn from
31:47others mistakes and get better and then
31:49you can start to learn how to apply it.
31:51And then that's the process of like
31:53playing a little bit smaller, playing
31:54satellites, things like that. But
31:56anything you want to add when it comes
31:57to that stuff? I know you're doing a ton
31:58of new and good things around DFS and
32:01analytics and all this stuff right now.
32:03>> Yeah, I I think it's a it's a cool point
32:06that you made there and it's it's true
32:07and I would say like it's true no matter
32:09who you are. like even you know my
32:12myself even you uh we are constantly
32:14looking for new ways to get better at
32:17this game to learn more to get new
32:19information right and so uh whether
32:21that's subscribing to uh a site or
32:24whether it's you know I'm paying $100 a
32:27month for you know a powerful claude
32:30subscription so I can go and do this
32:31research myself and then put it in the
32:33Discord and so now instead of paying
32:35$100 a month for Claude to do that you
32:38just go pay for my Discord instead and
32:40stuff like that, right? And so, oh yeah,
32:41um uh quick shout out, new site is up,
32:44blickanalytics.com,
32:46blanalytics.com.
32:48That's where all this stuff is. And uh
32:51uh you what you'll see is like all of
32:53the analysis, all of my slate thoughts,
32:55stuff like that is in the Discord. And
32:57then all the projections, the ownership,
32:59the splits are now up on the site just
33:01so it's a lot easier for people to
33:03actually see those charts. And uh
33:04they're they're fancy. They're kind of
33:06cool. It's uh it's very very kind of uh
33:10just neat I guess uh that I'm I'm able
33:12to create this stuff on online now cuz
33:14you know like six months ago like I
33:17never ever ever would have come close to
33:18being able to build something like this.
33:20So uh AI is really cool and uh it's been
33:23it's been a lot of fun a lot very
33:24rewarding kind of learning about it but
33:26the coolest part of it is now I get to
33:28share that with all the subscribers.
33:30It's just uh it's been really really fun
33:31and can't wait to continue to do more
33:33especially into the NFL season. Yeah,
33:35the Blicky. Okay, Kyle, but uh Blick
33:38scored is the one. Whoever came up with
33:39that originally, I don't know who it
33:40was, but that's the way uh the way to go
33:42on that one. I love the point you made
33:44about like we pay too. I I love the
33:46claude actually that that exact example.
33:47It's like again lot everybody can go I
33:50use this all the time with our partner
33:51at Sabersim or other sites that people
33:54use and different factors where it's
33:55like you can go just pay for it and
33:56press buttons and hope it works out but
33:58it's like you pay a hundred bucks
34:00because you h you also have experience
34:02now with prompting it a ton and getting
34:04you know the right answers out of it and
34:05and finding out and knowing how to
34:07adjust. Anybody could do that, but it's
34:09way better for someone to have the
34:10foundation. Or if you're not going to go
34:13pay to get the foundation, skip over it
34:14and move over to just paying for
34:16somebody who is and who already has that
34:18experience and has done it. And that's
34:19kind of the difference with that. So, I
34:21I love that call out, man. That's just a
34:22good one. We're paying for a ton of
34:23stuff ourselves to get better and learn
34:25and focus and be able to create stuff
34:27and do different things. Lots of people
34:28can do the same. Let's look at how to
34:30leverage this build.
34:32>> Yeah.
34:32>> So, we talked about a couple of these
34:33different builds that we saw. I mean,
34:35you don't see a lot of 6K guys, if any.
34:39Is it because the 6K range is just too
34:41weak this week, if you will, or or is it
34:43because you just think it's just because
34:44it's so unnecessary and maybe people
34:46will just pick a handful? I just I don't
34:48see very many. Maybe, you know, maybe
34:51sub five is what we see across the
34:53board. Like, what 6K guys stand out to
34:55you, if any? Mao, maybe Chris?
34:57>> I think like Howong maybe, but it's it's
35:03not fun down here. And like there's a
35:05there's a very clear kind of massive
35:08drop off uh in in all of my projections
35:11once you get into that like
35:14six uh yeah that upper 6k range really.
35:17And so I'm uh I'm very much not
35:20intrigued by it kind of at all. And and
35:23yeah, it's uh it's a it's a tough one to
35:25get sold on. And I think what what I
35:28noticed too, by the way, is like there's
35:31not much temptation to go down there
35:33because if you just look in the upper or
35:38in the lower 7K range, like you can find
35:40guys who are projected a lot better at
35:43pretty good ownership, too. You don't
35:45need to go down. Like sometimes
35:48everyone who's worth a damn in the low
35:50sevens is like, okay, well, they're
35:52going to be 10% on, they're going to be
35:5315% on, something like that. And so if
35:55you actually want to find a good player
35:58down there or at least someone who's
35:59like intriguing with low ownership, you
36:01have to go into the 6ks be because
36:04that's just like that you have to do
36:06that to avoid ownership, let alone
36:08looking for someone who actually has
36:10some real upside. This week we we can
36:12find all like the really good ownership
36:14plays we want in those low sevens. So
36:16there's no reason to me to to go any
36:18lower.
36:19>> Yeah, I think I love all that and agree.
36:21One thing I'll add though, again, this
36:22is obviously more large field tournament
36:24where that, you know, you're taking on
36:25the risk, but I think most people are
36:28inclined to go Cam Young and skip the
36:30nines or Cam Young with God up or and
36:33that and then down from there or got her
36:36up and down or I I definitely think a
36:38lot of people just say, "Oh, well, if
36:40I'm not going to go Cam Young, let me
36:41just I heard them say people are going
36:43to play two two NK guys, I'm gonna play
36:45three or four." We saw that, too. It
36:46wasn't like that difference. So, I will
36:48say that yes, this will be a little bit
36:50uncomfortable, but you still have 6,800
36:53per player when you load up like Cam
36:55Young with 29ks. And maybe it's not
36:57Conter. I used a popular one. You could
36:59probably get that. I mean, I know you
37:00can mathematically, but I'm saying let
37:02let's say it's this is your guys. Well,
37:04your average is now the low sevens and
37:06you might have to pick your one sixk
37:08guy, but we already said they're all
37:09going to be sub 5% for the most part,
37:12very likely. And it's not like you're
37:13saying, "Well, now I got to pick a bunch
37:14of It's not like picking Scotty last
37:17week where he comes in second and still
37:18is nowhere. You know, he was in the live
37:20final. I know he won it for the guy, but
37:21I'm just saying he wasn't really needed
37:23in all those large field tournaments
37:24because he was 142 and you needed to
37:27make extra um room for him at the
37:29bottom. This is an example with like Cam
37:32Young 29ks where you don't even have to
37:34go into the sixes, but if you do, you
37:36can you can still play around with a ton
37:38of lowowned guys to no owned guys in the
37:40sevenk range that just and by that I
37:42mean sub five percenters. You could get
37:44three sub 5enters in this lineup, no
37:47problem.
37:47>> Yeah.
37:48>> Not have got her up, not have Spawn, not
37:51have Mac Meisner and Cole and Sunj, and
37:54still be just fine. And this is totally
37:56different. And you might only be picking
37:58like one guy down there. But let's say
38:00you had a splits guy who looks good.
38:02Alex, I'm just going to use a popular
38:03one. But let's say Chris Kirk looks
38:05fine. Well, you now have almost 7,200
38:06per. You can do There's so many guys
38:09from 7K.
38:11Let's go. If I can do it this way for
38:14you guys on the screen like all these
38:16guys are pretty much going to work and
38:19Sunj will get a boost.
38:23Potguider maybe Kohl's maybe Graserman
38:26maybe like yeah there'll be some late
38:27steam on a little of these guys but
38:28we're talking steam to 10% maybe or
38:31something 11 you know like that type of
38:32range. So anyway you don't have to take
38:34them there's 20 guys around them so you
38:36could fill this lineup out. So I think
38:37one of my first thoughts is and it
38:39didn't even need a 6K. I just showed it
38:41with a $6,900 version is to go with Cam
38:44Young and two 9K guys as a way to get
38:47different up top right out of the gate.
38:49What do you got?
38:50>> I I mean down in the in the low sevens
38:53like as I said there there are so many
38:55guys who really intrigue me. You can
38:56start with Billy Horchel as a pivot off
38:58JM like his irons are as hot as anyone's
39:01in the world right now coming off a 13th
39:03place finish where he actually drove the
39:05ball well too. Uh, all he needs to do is
39:07make some putts. And historically, like
39:09that's not uh that's not something that
39:11will hold Billy Horchel down for a
39:13while. Eventually, he's going to start
39:15making putts again. So, I like him quite
39:17a bit. Uh, I think uh Kevin U, Michael
39:20Kim, you mentioned Pot Gator, um,
39:23Grazerman, Wallace, Kefir, Cudy, like
39:26there are just there's so many options
39:28down here that I I think that's that's
39:30probably how I'm going to to play the
39:32slate, which doesn't mean that I'm not
39:34going to try to get different up top.
39:36But like, let's remember, um, like
39:39currently the lowest owned guy that I
39:42have over $8,600 is Jackson Quinn at
39:4614.2% 2% in single entries. There's also
39:48Russell Henley at 14.4%. Like those are
39:52good ownership numbers relative to some
39:54of the guys around them who are at like
39:5625%. Things of that nature. But like if
39:59you get a a another KON win at 14% like
40:03that alone is not going to win you the
40:05tournament. You still have to be really
40:06good elsewhere in your lineup. So uh I
40:10I'm mostly just going to say, all right,
40:12I've got my separators down in the 7K
40:14range. Now I can play whoever I want
40:17from the upper eightks and the nineks
40:19and the 10ks and I'll just choose the
40:21guys who I think are are you know the
40:23most likely to have some real success
40:25this week and not really worry about
40:26ownership up top.
40:28>> Yeah, I think that's key to remember is
40:29like you said you I just used an example
40:31to show you could almost fill out the
40:32previous two with a lineup but it wasn't
40:33quite but it's just to show like that
40:35almost hits it just by picking some of
40:37those guys and they all fit the mold of
40:39what we discussed there already. So I I
40:42think there's a lot of different ways
40:43that you can go with this one, but any
40:45other methods you're thinking on how to
40:46leverage the chalk? I used like the Camy
40:48Young 29K guys, you just gave another
40:50example. Is there any other thoughts to
40:53um getting different this week on on
40:54this slate with the the last rocket
40:56mortgage and all the changes to the
40:58course? No, I think that's it because
41:00again like
41:02it it's a week I think where you you do
41:04it with uh the guys you play and not
41:07some kind of roster construction because
41:08I I don't number one like I don't think
41:10there's going to be a So put it this way
41:14like we know that a lot of people are
41:17going to load up on the upper 8k to low
41:1910k range right in in a major
41:22championship if that were happening we
41:24could say okay one of the ways you can
41:25deviate is you can go pay up for Rory or
41:28pay up for ROM or pay up for Scotty and
41:30that alone will kind of put you in in
41:33your own range or you can go down to the
41:35the low 6ks in, you know, twice instead
41:38of the 7K range three times. We don't
41:41have that, right? It's a it's a very
41:42condensed pricing uh kind pricing pool,
41:46not just a uh it's not it's not just
41:50like one where you have all these guys
41:54available at at the eights and the tens.
41:56Like there's there's no way around that,
41:57right? Like any lineup, even a super
41:59super balanced lineup is going to start
42:01in that upper 8K range. Even a quote
42:04unquote studs and duds lineup is going
42:05to start in that upper nine to 10k
42:08range. Like everything is just very
42:09similar to one another. So you can't you
42:12can't really deviate structure-wise this
42:14week. You have to do it through the
42:15players.
42:16>> Yeah. And I think we talked a lot about
42:17that that so we don't need to, you know,
42:18keep beating that one down. But to the
42:20point being of you you will find certain
42:22ranges like say like the 8K range is
42:24going overlooked as a whole. It's just,
42:26you know, it's so easy to get to Hideki
42:29and up and even if you include Nap and
42:30Spawn, like from Spawn up, it's easy to
42:33play three of those options together. We
42:34just showed multiple ways if even going
42:36to the very top where you could have
42:37like Cam Young, um, Clark and Kentlayer
42:40or Matsyama like we showed. So like you
42:42could definitely play three of these
42:43guys. So that's one thing. And then the
42:45other thing is that makes it so the you
42:48know 7200 and down range is kind of
42:52overlooked completely like almost all
42:54those guys because most people can
42:55easily land in a Meisner and above and
42:58whoever else you have fitting in there
42:59if it's you know Connors or Davis
43:01Thompson or whatever your chalk is there
43:03Cole we talked about Sunj at 7K flat
43:06fine he's like maybe the one down there
43:07but outside of that most will be sub 5%
43:10it gets really spread out so like Alex
43:12said you can just pick the plays that
43:14you like that fit whatever you're doing.
43:16But I would still be thinking of it,
43:17like I say, outside of that. For me,
43:18it's still the process of what what am I
43:20doing with my build and why and you
43:23know, how am I attacking this course and
43:24that to me makes it so that you land on
43:26your guys that fit that and it's not
43:29just the picks and plays, it's the picks
43:30and plays that go with the process
43:32you're using. So hopefully that helps.
43:34Um, let's talk a little bit about one
43:37and done. We we got to hit that quickly
43:38just because obviously one and done is
43:40rounding out the season. Many are just
43:41going down the stretch. You guys have
43:42your questions, you could throw them in
43:44there now, but what are you thinking for
43:45one and done as the season winds down?
43:47There's, you know, a lot of guys that
43:49people don't have remaining and now it's
43:51kind of like pure strategy time, right?
43:53There's only a few events left. If
43:55you're out of it, you can't just play
43:57the same guy everybody else is playing,
43:58but even if they are just the best on
44:00paper play.
44:01>> Yeah. Uh, I got news for you, by the
44:03way. We didn't have a leverage lane last
44:04week, but we had Jackson Quinn in our
44:07joint entry. So, last week we got a win.
44:10are all the way up to 416th place. So,
44:13we're making moves now.
44:16>> I just I sent my dad this morning in the
44:17mail one. Same one. We're 1900 and 2,000
44:21because we each have our own entry.
44:22>> Mhm.
44:24>> And uh what did he say for this week?
44:26He's He's using Jake Knap this week. He
44:28He likes Jake Knap. Yeah. I I don't even
44:32When does When does this uh end? Let me
44:35let me find this. So, dates it runs
44:38through the BMW. Okay. So,
44:41>> like the Rocket $10,000 purse, Windom 8
44:45and a half, FedEx St. Jude and BMW both
44:4820.
44:50We can we can get another Covenant type
44:52win. That'll help of course, but the
44:55position that we're in, we have to nail
44:58the FedEx St. Jude and the BMW. And we
45:00probably have to do that at fairly
45:02reasonable ownership. So the like the
45:05number one thing that I'm thinking of
45:07this week is let's just we we got to
45:10make sure that we have two really good
45:13options for those two weeks. So like I
45:16look at this board, we don't have Cam
45:18Left, we don't have Xander, we don't
45:19have Godup, we don't have Quaven, we
45:21don't have Henley, uh we don't have
45:23Hideki, we don't have Nikolai, Fowler.
45:26>> Who do we have?
45:27>> We've got Windham. We've got Seiwoo,
45:30Kentlay, Ben Griffin, JJ Spawn, Jake
45:33Knap, Ryan Gerard, Michael Thor,
45:35Bjornson. I'll I'll tell you right now,
45:36like my preference, I think, is Jake
45:38Knap. Uh his splits are really really
45:41good. Let me let me read them off. So,
45:43uh
45:453/10en of a stroke better in easy
45:47conditions. He gains strokes in five
45:49percentage points more of his rounds. In
45:52easy conditions, he has uh a 3.7
45:55percentage point boom boost. So, he's
45:58gaining at least I think that's 3.3
46:00strokes to the field. 3.7 percentage
46:02points more often in easy conditions
46:05than in all other conditions. And when
46:07you think of it, like how often you
46:09gaining 3.3 strokes in a round, right?
46:11It's it's not very often. So, 3.7% like
46:14that might be as high as a 25% boost or
46:16something like that. So, I I think this
46:18is a really really really good spot for
46:20Jake Knap coming off a very nice week
46:23for him. Uh so, yeah, I like that quite
46:25a bit. And yeah, exactly. How do we make
46:27up $13 million this week in one and
46:30done? And like I said, you you got to
46:32know the last two, right? When you're
46:33getting I think it's I think it's 4
46:35million uh for the winner in each of
46:37those weeks. So like eight in the last
46:40two is is not uh is not impossible.
46:43>> Yeah. Scooter said time machine heart
46:45went the other way. So give up. That's
46:47Cade said give up and try again next
46:49year. But I think it is interesting that
46:51you just look at um
46:54you know the setup of it and say, "Oh,
46:55it seems impossible." But it actually is
46:57possible. It's like there the big events
46:59exist to still make it happen. Is it
47:00likely? No. But is it possible? Yes.
47:02Kevin Garnett will tell you anything is
47:04possible. Alex now will tell you with
47:06LeBron showing up in Philly that
47:08anything is possible because now you got
47:10yourself a pretty stacked starting five
47:13over there for the 76ers this coming
47:15year.
47:15>> Um I think that's interesting. like
47:17obviously you know outside sports topic
47:19we're on a golf show but I will say
47:21really fun stuff going on in sports I'm
47:23getting all the football updates while
47:24we were live on this show it's you know
47:26Momes to Rice pass crossover like the
47:29you know stuff people are talking about
47:30so everyone's getting excited for
47:33football coming back and we will be here
47:34for leverage lane for that as well got a
47:37lot of other stuff coming. Nick says,
47:38"Maybe I'm the dumb one here, but I find
47:40it interesting that LeBen James,
47:42speaking of LeBron James, who we just
47:43talked about, misses his first cut by
47:45two strokes, drops to 7.3K, and now no
47:49one wants to play him, which is also
47:50funny because uh Quinn did not show up
47:54at his first event. Then he goes, I
47:56think it was T10 at the Isco and then
47:58goes on to win. So, not saying Ben
48:00Jane's going to hit that trajectory or
48:02that path, but it's funny about all this
48:04stuff. That's what I said earlier, like
48:06John Deere Classic. I'm not saying
48:07they're the exact same at all. I'm just
48:09because especially with the course
48:10changes, things just noting like these
48:11types of events, but like 50% of the
48:13field or something in these large field
48:15or the small field stuff wanted to play
48:16Andrew Novak in the fantasy golf world
48:18championship and now nobody wants him
48:20and he's at basically the same price.
48:22Like what do they want with him there
48:23that they don't want with him here? It's
48:24like, oh, but they just found out. Well,
48:26you'll you'll find out. All right. Is if
48:28you don't play him, then he comes back
48:29and crushes it again. Like anything can
48:30happen.
48:31>> Yeah. Yeah, I think with with someone
48:32like Ben James though, like we we should
48:34be reactionary because we have a small
48:37sample with him and so like each new
48:39data point is is a meaningful new data
48:42point, right? Like when when JJ Spawn
48:44has a really bad iron week, we don't
48:45say, "Oh, well now I don't really know
48:47if Spawn is a good iron player." Like,
48:48yeah, of course he's still a great iron
48:50player. With Ben James, now we have two
48:54very good iron performances in his last
48:56six, two neutral and two really bad iron
48:59performances. So, you know, as of last
49:02week, we were saying, "Oh, you know
49:03what? I think this guy's a really good
49:04ball striker. I think he's a great iron
49:06player." And now
49:08I I I'm not as confident. I'm not
49:10anywhere near as confident uh in his
49:12iron play moving forward as I was. So,
49:14yeah, I think it's it's not totally
49:17irrational to to kind of react to Ben
49:19James in that way. Whereas, like, let's
49:21say he had put up another good iron
49:23performance, drove it well, like he's
49:24he's driving it fairly well, but nothing
49:26special. He doesn't have distance, so
49:28maybe not the best fit. better fit last
49:30week I would say uh in that regard. But
49:33also like it looks like his around the
49:35green uh game is a is a real weakness.
49:37Maybe a better putter than we thought he
49:39was going to be. So like that that's a
49:42good thing. But like if if he had put up
49:44another really good iron performance
49:46last week and just couldn't make a putt,
49:48I would be much more inclined to agree
49:50and say, "Okay, yeah, I don't really
49:51care about the miscut. I'm I'm going
49:53right back to him." Because when he's
49:54when he's good, he seems to be uh quite
49:57good. So the upside's still there. I
49:58don't think he's a bad play in any way.
50:00I'm just saying like I I don't think
50:01it's totally irrational to not be on him
50:03after last week.
50:04>> Yeah. I think that's what people like to
50:06do. I guess where I'm a little bit
50:07different is like the sample's just too
50:08small because it's like you said, it's
50:10true every piece of the sample is new
50:12data and that's why you're the the data
50:13analytics guy, but it's like uh you
50:15know, you're it is nice to get more
50:16data, but it's also like it's just so
50:19how do we know like if that I mean
50:21honestly that's what I hated. So, I we
50:23were, by the way, flabbergasted when
50:25Kven got the 32% in the Fantasy Golf
50:28World Championship. Like, there was no
50:29reason. There was so many guys around
50:31him above and below. None of the
50:33projection sites really had him popping
50:34that crazy. Uh, he'd burned people in
50:37the FGWC already. If there was any bias
50:39to that, it was like it was just so wild
50:41that he popped to 32% and of course goes
50:43on to win. So, I know some people were
50:44tilted from that perspective, but it's
50:46like the sample said like bad good, but
50:50we know his history's amazing and his
50:51upside looks like, you know, incredible
50:53long term. But I just thought it was
50:55like one of those things where you just
50:57never know with these new guys as
50:59they're coming out. And we see it all
51:00the time over the years playing DFS.
51:02typically not with the new guys and it's
51:04more with the mo one of the other most
51:06common things a DFS player will say to
51:07me is and I'm sure you've heard a
51:08billion times is like of course so and
51:11so goes off the week after I was on him
51:13and it's like that's the thing but a lot
51:15of the times the weeks are very similar
51:17it's like last week to this week might
51:18end up being very similar but it's like
51:20people will just move off uh you know
51:21this week I'm not build the exact lineup
51:24but I mean you could literally put out a
51:26lineup that has uh Pearson Cudy Kefir
51:30Suber Um, who else was the other guy
51:33said down there? A Mac Mees Meisner.
51:34>> Mhm.
51:35>> There was couple others, but my point
51:37being like all those guys that people
51:38wanted last week and now they're not
51:39that nobody really wants them this week.
51:41It's like they all some of them actually
51:43played good um in round two even last
51:45week. And like just have you you can't
51:46make on those types of courses like last
51:48week for them. Like I know I preface it
51:50saying how hard it is for these guys.
51:51It's not hard and you cannot have a bad
51:53day and you only get a speaking of
51:55samples size you only get two days to
51:56have it happen. It's like [ __ ] I I just
51:58couldn't afford a bad day today or else,
52:00you know, it would have been totally
52:01different. So, I don't know. I think
52:02there's a lot of fun stuff with this DFS
52:04week, so I'm excited from that
52:05perspective. One and done. I'm good with
52:08um Jake Knap. Anything for the betting
52:11breakdown this week before we get to our
52:12leverage lanes?
52:13>> Uh actually, I don't have any outrights
52:16yet. Um it's on my list of like first
52:18things to do this afternoon. It's it's
52:20been a very very very busy week. Um but
52:23uh I I there are a couple uh comments in
52:25here I want to highlight. First, uh,
52:26Aaron, I actually like ran through a
52:28list of guys in the in the low sevens
52:30and tried to try to answer your question
52:31without doing it directly. Um,
52:34>> Scooter had a made a really good point
52:36kind of, uh, on um on the the ball
52:40striking from Ben James and how the
52:42approach play was really bad primarily
52:44because he went in the water on 18. And
52:47I want to say two things here. First, I
52:49think it's a really good idea to to kind
52:52of evaluate, you know, in small samples
52:54like does this guy look this bad because
52:56he was just bad throughout or was it
52:59like one or two outlier swings? However,
53:04there are two things with with Ben James
53:05that I think are are important here. The
53:07first is that wasn't the only reason why
53:09his approach play looked really bad.
53:11Even on Friday, he lost over a full
53:13stroke with his irons. Even if you
53:15exclude that water ball in 18 that cost
53:17him 1.8 strokes.
53:19>> That's what I just had up. He lost 1.8
53:21on hole 18, but he also lost over two
53:23and a like almost two and a half strokes
53:25across the first three holes. They were
53:27rough.
53:27>> Yeah. Yeah. It was that was that was
53:29ugly. The second thing that I the second
53:31point I want to make here is
53:34we don't have enough of a Ben James
53:37sample to kind of know this at this
53:38point, but we don't always want to just
53:41throw out those quote unquote outliers
53:43because
53:45it is very important that we find
53:48players who are making the correct miss,
53:50right? Like we we talk about this a
53:52bunch. Gary Woodland had a very real
53:54chance to win last week except for the
53:56fact that he made the wrong miss twice
53:58on 18. and he came up short in the
54:00water. If if he just plays 18 well
54:03instead of as poorly as he did, he would
54:05have been right there with Kovven. So,
54:09we we want to like there's very real
54:12signal is essentially what I'm saying in
54:14finding the players who routinely make
54:17the wrong miss. Now, we don't know that
54:19that's Ben James yet. This is a very
54:20small sample because he's young. I do
54:22think like that's uh a little bit more
54:24likely than than most guys. Uh but yeah,
54:28it's it's not something that I
54:29automatically want to just toss out,
54:31especially for a young guy. Like this is
54:33a okay, was was he trying? In other
54:37words, like we don't know what was going
54:39through his head. Did he select a club
54:41that was meant to carry twothirds of the
54:45way into the green and he just hit it a
54:48little bit high on the face and it just
54:49didn't carry for that reason? Maybe he
54:51misjudged the wind. Or was he saying,
54:54"Oh, I want to try and go make Eagle."
54:55Because I think if I remember correctly,
54:56that was the front left pin that was
54:58actually like in a bit of a bowl and if
55:00you landed it kind of in that front
55:02third of the left side of the green, you
55:04could get the back stop and have like a
55:0515 20 footer for Eagle. Was he too
55:08aggressive trying to do that and then
55:10just came up a little bit short? And so,
55:11you know, because we don't have that
55:13information, we can't possibly know
55:14that. Uh, I think that's an important
55:16thing to just say like
55:19I don't want to toss that out. I I want
55:21to take note of the fact that he made a
55:23really really bad miss there and we'll
55:26see in time if that's a consistent flaw
55:29of his game or if that really was an
55:31outlier and we should be really
55:33confident about his approach game moving
55:34forward. So I just wanted to talk
55:36through that kind of thing because
55:36that's that's the sort of thing that I I
55:38think gets
55:39>> lost a little bit when we look at PGA
55:41analytics, right? It's like not not
55:44every outlier swing is the same. We can
55:46learn more from some than others and
55:48particularly we can learn from a large
55:51sample of whether guys are making that
55:53miss or not over and over.
55:55>> Yeah. And I'll say this a couple things.
55:57One, we had the swee on 18 for Saturday
55:59Sunday. So I didn't get to see it on
56:00Friday, but I will say the Gary Woodland
56:03on Saturday was very painful for more
56:06more for him obviously. You could see it
56:07right on his face because you know why?
56:08Because it was the massive drive. He was
56:10much closer than expected and I was like
56:12there's no way like he just went in the
56:13water. Nobody, barely anybody was going
56:15in it at that point. And he couldn't
56:17believe it. And it was the best drive of
56:19the day. It was just perfect right out
56:20there. It's like nobody's hitting from
56:22there. It's like half the distance
56:23between where the layup guys are and the
56:25and the drive guys are. And it's like he
56:27was right in the middle of it. He hated
56:28himself after that one. That one really
56:30stung. And then another note just goes
56:32back to you digging into the rounds. I
56:34think that's why this is so important.
56:35Not enough people do it. It's more
56:36showdown related. But on on Sunday,
56:39Davis Chatfield or whatever I forget
56:42that guy's name is, but anyway, he was
56:44almost 30% in the round four showdown
56:47contest. Hubard, who started the day
56:50like two strokes behind him at the exact
56:52same price, was uh I think 6% to 28% was
56:56the difference in the two of them,
56:57right? So like three guys had them
56:58versus that many. So my point being
57:00though if you looked at Hubard and what
57:02I saw in round three was like Chatfield
57:04was all putter short game like there was
57:06nothing really standing out but if you
57:07looked at Hubard he'd made seven birdies
57:12only one bogey he left the par five out
57:15there at the end and his approach looked
57:16horrible but when you actually dug in it
57:18was the one hole it was it was 18 where
57:20he went into the water and lost a stroke
57:21and a half basically and it was like
57:23that to me was where I'd been in this
57:25spot too many times I was like I could
57:26play the safe guy in Chadfield or I
57:28could just take Hubard at this, you
57:30know, no ownership because of one bad
57:32shot. And then I looked at the other
57:34rounds and in round two it wasn't too
57:36bad. He left some power fives out there,
57:38but he made birdies. In round one, he
57:39left some power fives out there, but his
57:40approach was strong throughout and just
57:42missing with the putter. That's the type
57:44of stuff where when you do those deep
57:45dives and dig in and then know how to
57:46actually apply it, know how to apply it,
57:49have the data to use it, you're good to
57:51go. That's kind of the combination that
57:53leads to DFS success, at least in my
57:54opinion. So, anything you want to add
57:56besides that, my friend? If not, let's
57:58get into our leverage lane for the week.
58:00I'll let you go first. I
58:02>> think it's time for leverage lane. Uh,
58:03let's see. Where do I want to go here?
58:06Um, I think I think my leverage lane is
58:08going to be hammering that low 7K range.
58:11And I I mentioned some of these names
58:13already, but Cody, Kefir, Wallace,
58:17Grazerman, Poter, Michael Kim, Kevin U.
58:20All of these guys are popping like crazy
58:22in the GPP scores. All of these guys uh
58:25project pretty well. And then I'll
58:27probably just say, okay, well, which of
58:29these guys also directionally benefit
58:31from the splits that I'm looking at this
58:33week? And I'm guessing that it's not
58:35going to be like all seven. And
58:36hopefully it's two or three of them. And
58:38it just like makes, you know, the the
58:40the lineup kind of builds itself pretty
58:42seamlessly. But but yeah, I think that
58:44to me is is the range that
58:47really stands out is like these are the
58:49these are the really really
58:50inefficiently owned players for their
58:52upside. And when you think about like
58:54surrounded by Meisner, who I do think is
58:56a good play. Kohl's obviously in really
58:59good form. Meisner has really good
59:00splits as well, but
59:03we're talking like a quarter of the
59:06ownership of those guys on a lot of the
59:08guys that I just named. And so I I think
59:10that's just really really inefficient.
59:12Certainly when you look at like the top
59:1410 odds for them like Meisner,
59:16Graserman, Wallace, Cody, Gim, Connors,
59:20Suber, like all these guys are separated
59:22by like a percentage point at most. So
59:25the fact that
59:27those uh those two Kohl's and Meisner
59:29are like two, three, four times as owned
59:32as the guys around them with the exact
59:34same top 10 odds to me just seems like a
59:36a really kind of inefficient way to
59:39build down there. And so I'm going to
59:40try and take advantage of that for my
59:41levers lane. Yeah, I typically am a
59:43cooty truther. I always get on that.
59:45Don't Don't do the deep dive on his
59:47Friday round to see if it was just one
59:49hole because it was definitely not just
59:51one hole. That's crazy how much uh red
59:53you see and how dark red that is for
59:54some of those holes. He played poorly,
59:56but it could just been a bad day for
59:57him. I like the upside long term and at
59:59a course like this could be even better,
1:00:00especially if the splits lean that way.
1:00:03For me, I was trying to think about how
1:00:04to say this a couple different ways. I
1:00:06definitely think there's something to be
1:00:07said that like, you know, just seeing
1:00:08again, everybody has different stuff
1:00:10like the win equity is up there, but
1:00:13there's still some down here. And then
1:00:15you got a lot of other stuff in here. I
1:00:16wouldn't build a complete 8K balance
1:00:18build at all here personally. So, I
1:00:20guess I'll say it the other way, but I
1:00:21wouldn't hate if you had two or three AK
1:00:24guys as opposed to most lineups having
1:00:25zero to one with just spawn or like
1:00:27spawn and and something else. So, I
1:00:29could say it that way, but the other way
1:00:30I'll say it, Alex, is that I think
1:00:32everybody has two of these guys. And so
1:00:34I'll say this either I I'm only going to
1:00:37go one 9K and above guy. So I I'll
1:00:40figure it out that way and then drop
1:00:41into that more balanced build. So I'm
1:00:42not going to get stuck with like the oh
1:00:44you've got the most obvious 58k guy
1:00:46build or whatever that people. I
1:00:47wouldn't do that at all. But I could do
1:00:49like sew and then drop down and and I
1:00:51don't have the other guys up there and
1:00:53it just goes that way. But another thing
1:00:54I'll say is if I'm going to play two
1:00:56guys up above, I'm going to play a combo
1:00:59of the two lowest owned. So whether it's
1:01:01something like a Henley Kantlay, um
1:01:04we'll see like Seiwoo versus all of
1:01:06those around him. He might not end up
1:01:07being the lowest, but I'm thinking if if
1:01:09he does come in where let's say I think
1:01:11Quivven ends up and and our ownership
1:01:12updates tonight and Quivven's lowest out
1:01:14of everybody up there because Clark gets
1:01:16a boost, Sew gets a projections boost,
1:01:18Xander's squeezed, but it's just the
1:01:20squeeze boost like he's still going to
1:01:22be at a big number. Well, then I would
1:01:23probably think about playing like you
1:01:25could do like a Quoven Henley or
1:01:27something and you know something like
1:01:28that's going to be completely unique
1:01:29where I'm not saying to go away from
1:01:31this upper range, but I'm saying it in a
1:01:34different way that that would still put
1:01:35me into the 8Ks where I'm going to have
1:01:37at least two 8Ks. So, the the best way
1:01:38to probably say it is 28K plus and most
1:01:42likely in those two AKs not going to
1:01:43include spawn for my main lineup when I
1:01:46do it. I've got a couple other guys in
1:01:47there that I like. So, not a full
1:01:49balance build, but a couple different
1:01:51ways that I'm thinking about it. If not,
1:01:52you don't like that way. The one I gave
1:01:54away earlier was in consideration as
1:01:55well where I said it's like Cam Young
1:01:5729Ks and then get different down low.
1:02:00That's another great way that I think
1:02:01you can go this week, too. So, there's a
1:02:03couple for you guys for this week. Alex,
1:02:04let the people know everything else
1:02:05you've got going on. You talked about
1:02:07blickanalytics.com and all that, but
1:02:09you've got tons of other stuff. It's
1:02:10been a busy couple of weeks for you, my
1:02:12friend. So, let them know where they can
1:02:13find you, what you've got going on, and
1:02:14then we'll get out of here. Yeah, I
1:02:16think I I mentioned it on Pat's show
1:02:18last week, but I I can't remember if
1:02:20I've mentioned it yet on Leverage Lane,
1:02:22but um now that all of the ownership
1:02:24projections, all of my projections, and
1:02:27all of my GPP scores are available
1:02:30through my Discord atlickytics.com,
1:02:33uh the price will go up for the NFL
1:02:35season, but anyone who gets in before
1:02:38September will be locked into the
1:02:40current price forever. So, use promo
1:02:42code leverage. You get 10% off and you
1:02:45get locked into the current price
1:02:47forever.
1:02:48It's it's a really good deal. And and I
1:02:50mean, we're just doing so many really
1:02:52exciting things over here in the Discord
1:02:53and I know you're in there, Pat's in
1:02:55there, and it's it's been a ton of fun.
1:02:57I I I've already teased it a little bit,
1:02:59but like the NFL roster construction
1:03:02data project that I did, like I I've
1:03:04already done this for MLB, and it's been
1:03:06it it's it's led to a really really good
1:03:09MLB season for me so far. And I know a
1:03:11lot of my subscribers have said the same
1:03:13thing, like as soon as the MLB roster
1:03:15construction data came out, like it was
1:03:17just kind of automatic, like they've had
1:03:19the the best uh MLB season of their
1:03:21lives. I expected similar results for
1:03:25the NFL roster construction analysis,
1:03:27which is like, hey, if we do this, it's
1:03:29a bit of an it's a bit of an advantage.
1:03:31If we do this, it's a bit of an
1:03:32advantage. And if we add up these subtle
1:03:34advantages, they can create a pretty
1:03:35good advantage for us. The NFL roster
1:03:38construction analysis showed like there
1:03:40are massive inefficiencies that people
1:03:42are doing. They're not building certain
1:03:44stacks anywhere near often enough.
1:03:46They're doing certain things way too
1:03:48often. We put these together. Like I
1:03:52can't wait for the NFL season. So trust
1:03:54me, you guys want that data. It's
1:03:56available exclusively in the Discord. So
1:03:58uh I'll see you in there. And and like I
1:04:00said, use promo code uh leverage for 10%
1:04:02off. that that discount is every single
1:04:06time it renews, you get that same 10%
1:04:09off and you're getting 10% off of the
1:04:11grandfathered in price. So, now's the
1:04:13best time to uh to get in there for
1:04:15sure.
1:04:16>> Yeah, you you want the data, you want
1:04:17that stuff. Like Alex said, I'm over in
1:04:18the Discord. It's a ton of cool uh
1:04:20information and specifically with NFL
1:04:22just getting us even more excited for
1:04:23that. Only part one's out. I've read it
1:04:25twice and it's a lot, but it's very good
1:04:27and I'm excited for part two. So, like I
1:04:29said before, guys, if you want to learn
1:04:30how to play the game first and get that
1:04:32down, mastermind is the place to go.
1:04:33It's onetime payment. There's no monthly
1:04:35or any recurring. You can pay less than
1:04:3650 bucks. Gets, you know, do what I've
1:04:38taken thousands of hours to learn and
1:04:40and learn it in a day and a nineto-ive
1:04:42shift, if you will, of like a Saturday.
1:04:43It's seven hours of courses that you can
1:04:45go through, but they're actual modules
1:04:46where it teaches you like each category.
1:04:48There's 20 categories to break it down.
1:04:50You can listen to it on podcast feed.
1:04:52It's less than 50 bucks. If you want
1:04:53shipnation, go to shipnation.com. You
1:04:55could still get the first month
1:04:57including Saber Sim for less than 50
1:04:59bucks as well. These are all small costs
1:05:01to pay as part of that tuition. I just
1:05:02talked about earlier hanging out with
1:05:03some of the best DFS players in the
1:05:05entire world at least with PGA DFS at
1:05:07Fantasy Golf World Championship. All
1:05:09saying the same thing that you pay for
1:05:11your education, you pay to get ahead.
1:05:13It's to skip steps. It's to learn
1:05:14things, learn how to apply them. Get
1:05:16with Alex, get with Shipment Nation, get
1:05:18the data, learn how to actually use that
1:05:20data to your advantage to create your
1:05:21own process and not just follow somebody
1:05:23else's picks and plays, and that's going
1:05:25to put you in the position to find more
1:05:27success. But even when you do come up
1:05:29short, like we talked about my fantasy
1:05:30golf world championship, we put a bow on
1:05:32it all here, 18th place. Yeah, I would
1:05:34much rather a podium finish, but it's
1:05:37you got to get in the event first. That
1:05:38takes a lot of the stuff to get there.
1:05:40And then you can only be putting
1:05:42yourselves in those positions. the more
1:05:43often you put yourself in there, the
1:05:44more the opportunity exists to give
1:05:46yourself a shot to hit one of those
1:05:47life-changing scores or the events that
1:05:49you want to see happen. So, check us
1:05:51out. We'll be back next week for the
1:05:53Windham, the final event before the
1:05:55playoffs, right? We've got that coming
1:05:57up. So, next week, same time, Wednesday,
1:05:5910:30 a.m. Eastern. That's going to do
1:06:00it for this week, guys, for Alex and for
1:06:02myself, Totag and Tambo. Good luck in
1:06:04your contest this week. Let's ship it.
1:06:10Heat. Heat.
