Boris’s Week 11 DFS Writeup

After my first article or so this year, I got a question about the difficulty level increasing, at least in cash games, as the season goes on. It does indeed increase because the DFS sites, especially DraftKings, make pricing much more difficult. So what players are forced to do is

YES, I am indeed super-duper nervous about my Wolven Sort's match with Wake Forest.  Thanks for asking! Texas A&M (-2.5) at Ole Miss (7:00, ESPN) Everyone in the mee-jia is 100% on board with Jimbo Fisher's Bonfire Cult.  Not that I want to be the side backing Lane Kiffin, but here we

This looks like a chalky week in DFS cash games. As a reminder, chalk = highly owned. It also looks like a week where RB will make or break you. If you have watched Beautiful Mind, (wait...is that the right movie? Whatever) or read anything about Game Theory, then know it

My lineups across 3 sites: DK Lamar Booker Zeke Renfrow Cooks Hollywood Arnold Allen 49ers SD Lamar Ekeler Patterson Hollywood Thielen Renfrow Kelce Moore FD Allen Booker Zeke Renfrow Allen Cooks Arnold Hill 49ers I cashed on DK and SD. Fuck Fanduel. Honestly I don't know why I play on that site...never really works out for me.    The Curse? I did tell the Bills and Bills's fans to beware of the #ManningCastCurse. I considered Allen on DK and SD but ultimately was

Phew! Needed that one! My cash game lineups across the sites: DK Hurts Herbert Mitchell Chase AJ Brown Beasley Arnold Godwin 49ers SD Brady Herbert Mitchell Kupp AJ Brown Beasley Arnold Godwin FD Burrow Herbert Chubb Diggs Smith Chase Pitts Mitchell Football Team I cashed on DK and SD, but not on FD. On DK the cash line was a little higher than normal at 141.42. I was able to identify some players who had enough upside, which, as you'll see

Happy Spooky SZN! Halloween hasn't fallen on a Sunday since 2010. Back then the Rams were in St. Louis, the Raiders were in Oakland, the Chargers were in San Diego, the Bills were 0 - 7, Calvin Megatron Johnson still played, and Brett Favre was still a thing. There were

Apparently...it was the worst.   My lineups across three sites: DK   Hurts Henderson McKissic Adams Bateman St. Brown Seals-Jones DHop Patriots SD   Fraudgers Henry Swift Adams St. Brown DHop Kelce Kupp FD   Hurts Henry McKissic Cooks St. Brown Bateman Seals-Jones DHop Bucs Cashed nowhere with those three. I did have a decent day with gpp but just didn't have the right combo of players. For example, I didn't have a single Evans/Chase/Kupp lineup, which would have been nice. I actually had a lot of

Wanted to update everyone on something I mentioned in my DFS Preview article from 7 weeks ago: Lineup Trains. There are websites and companies out there, such as: DFS Army, Awesomo, EliteSports, Fantasypoints, Yahoo, ESPN, and several others on YouTube, Discord, and Patreon, among others, that people pay money to

Good gracious, I know everyone is as excite as I am for LOLFins/Jaguras tomorrow.  Imagine the maelstrom that Fair London's ticket scalpers must be enduring. Until then, here is how we pass the time: Alabama (-17) at Mississippi State (7:00, ESPN) Oh, you poor Cowbells.  Be afraid.  Be very afriad. NC State (-3) at

Boris’s Week Six DFS Writeup

Prelude The pay line in cash games was absurd last week. This happens a few times a year and is a major factor into the average pay line. It usually happens when chalk players like Henry and Mattison (over 60% owned last week) go bananas. This is why we want players
