In this episode, Andrew breaks down the mechanics of how SaberSim works.

Watch on YouTube: https://youtube.com/live/-_CzDyj72LQ

00:00 Intro
01:30 How does the builder work?
05:36 If you make a projection change to certain players do the live sims see how close you came to your projections or the original projections that SaberSim had for that player?
07:41 If you enter tons of contests MME, SE, etc. Is there potential value in doing 2 different contest lineup builds then running sims?
09:40 Would I give myself a better shot if I sacrifice a bit of ROI and play a less chalky lineup?
13:52 When we run contest sims it uses the specific contest ownership bucket correct?
15:45 Would you please show a build for both multipliers and also satellites?
19:43 Is there a cap on ownership per player you have for NFL/NBA?
21:55 Does increasing the team total on the Team Stacks tab give more opportunities or overall projections to the players on that team?
26:45 How likely are dupes between two guys using Contest Sims in SaberSim for the same NBA 150 max contest?
29:08 Can you do a short explanation of what is a good ROI number?
30:27 Since we are trying to top optimal using the optimizer does it matter if I look at the top 10 the same way as I chose just 1 instead?

In this episode: Andrew shares advice on maximizing your edge with NBA late swap.

Watch on YouTube: https://youtube.com/live/ph73mrCei2E

00:00 Intro
01:20 If you build NBA lineups at 6:30 for a 7:00 slate and at 6:50 there is a projection change do you have to do a full rebuild to factor the change or can you remove the saved lineups, hit refresh, and then save in autofill again to account for the change?
06:52 When Late Swapping, what's the easiest way to preserve specific lineups from the original set from being late swapped?
08:42 My normal NBA Classic slate is 3 20-max contests and a couple of SE contests. One single build, auto-fill unique. Usually just Min Uniques for adjustments. For the most part, my post-contest ROI for the 20-Max is usually near the top, but struggle a little bit more in the SE's. It's still positive but seems to be lacking. Any suggestions?
10:45 Are SaberSim field lineups the product of SaberSim ownership percentages or are ownership projections a product of the field lineups?
12:35 I noticed lineups ( i.e. giant squid in last Sunday's million maker) with negative ROI are taking down contests. However, the poker player in tells me to ignore that and it should even out. Would it be the same approach?

In this episode, Andrew breaks down how different minimum salary settings can influence your DFS lineup strategy.

Watch on YouTube: https://youtube.com/live/9exPbplVWvM

00:00 Intro
04:50 What's the best way to set a geomean on the Starter plan?
06:25 When looking at min salary on any sports, what's the difference when using the default vs 0 min salary?
13:22 In my pre-lock build I usually have a few rules, for example, a minimum projection rule. After the first game's lock, how does that min projection rule work when I swap?
14:25 If fewer duplicates mean a better chance of 1st place finish/or top positions being hit - does it make sense to have geometric mean greater than 25 as a rule for all sports main slate/showdown every single time?
17:30 How do I review my lineups from NFL week 10?
19:10 Whenever I run my builds for NBA my initial builds typically come back with anywhere from 80 to 100% exposure to some of the cheaper high-value guys on the slate. Is there a rule to set to avoid this?

In this episode, Andrew explores strategies for reducing duplicates.

Watch on YouTube: https://youtube.com/live/dHLWonhssU4

00:00 Intro
02:18 Would you recommend sorting by minutes played for a filter?
03:54 Does the post-contest sim win rate count for solo binks only or any 1st place?
04:25 Can you cover what adjustments the sim will make for the cup in the NBA this week?
06:25 In the process of increasing min uniques does that also reduce duplicates?
11:25 Is it possible to download the field lineups (Low Stakes 20-Max, Flagship MME, etc)?
11:50 If you upload NBA projections for a late swap build after lock. Do players that have already locked use the uploaded projections or the live SaberSim projections?
12:55 How do I get more of a player in my overall lineup pool?
14:30 I added showdown contests on DraftKings NFL and then imported lineups again to SaberSim and this obviously overwrote my existing contests build info. Is there a better way to import new contests?
16:24 Can you explain the new "Generate Field from Ownership" feature?
18:48 If updated projections/ownership come in before lock do I need to rebuild or can I just run new sims?
21:05 Can I upload custom projections without it overwriting the current custom projections?
22:42 Almost none of the millionaire maker winners this year had a positive sim ROI. If you go down to the top 20 spots, it’s about 50%. Is it worth using a Roi filter?
24:30 Do you recommend changing the salary min max for NFL main slates, or showdown?
29:35 We can see a player's overall portfolio exposure. Is there any way to see which contest each player is in?

In this episode, Andrew highlights the key differences between the Starter and Ultimate plans and shares tips on building great lineups without running contest simulations.

Watch on YouTube: https://youtube.com/live/MQmVsaMjhJQ

00:00 Intro
01:50 Has anyone found a setting or a way to better maximize the best lineups without using contest sims in Ultimate?
08:28 Under the Starter plan, are there similar settings for multipliers and single entries in the new SaberSim?
13:45 Does upping Min Uniques still have value or increase the chance of big wins if on the ultimate plan?
16:39 I see many users in chat mention the use of separate builds for certain types of contests (MME, 20-max, SE, WTA). I’m confused on the impact or benefits of doing this in terms of lineup diversity vs maximizing ROI.
19:20 Can you share your Showdown strategy/approach for builds targeting 20max versus SATs?
24:46 Does the post-contest sim ROI take into account the diversity/overall portfolio of line-ups?
26:30 Is there a difference if you generate lineups with a 49k cap or if you generate with a 50k cap and delete the lineups over 49k?
29:00 What do you think about creating a custom field of 5k using the average of all the ownership buckets?
30:19 How would you configure the settings for the best lineup in a single-entry contest?

01:40 How I should approach the NBA late swap with the starter plan?
05:55 Is there a way to apply filters and multiple sorts in the app for lineups?
07:00 Why should I use uniques now if it just tanks my ROI most of the time?
11:00 If I have core players and I late swap that removes the exposures I have set if they haven't played. Should I lock players I want to keep?

In this episode, Andrew shares best practices for dominating FanDuel showdown contests.

Watch on YouTube: https://youtube.com/live/9pVacDG4Woo

00:00 Intro
05:17 How do you suggest we late swap in NBA with 15 between each game?
08:46 I noticed this week on NFL that my ROI & Uniques were good, but the Sim Avg Score was pretty poor across the board - not sure why this is and how to improve it.
10:50 What is a good "minimum volume" threshold for Ultimate members?
15:49 Let's say I run a Build along with running a Contest Sim and I send the lineups I like to favorites. Once I have all of those lineups in favorites, is it safe to re-run Sims, diversify, and fill my lineups with either Direct/Autofill?
18:25 Would you please explain percentiles more?
21:56 How can I be successful on FD showdowns?
22:54 Is unique random getting phased put, as I do not see as many examples of using it anymore or are there still any edges for still using it, like e.g. on auto-fill?
24:32 Can you explain in NBA why sims are giving us such crazy amounts of less than 10 percent owned players?
38:55 How do I use SaberSim for NBA single stats slates?
39:52 What do you think about maxing the min uniques that allow all lineups to be positive ROI and then sending those lineups to the Favorites tab. Then from the Favorites tab, run multiple contest sims to see if it remains positive no matter which sample of sims are used to determine how many min uniques to use?
41:59 Is it possible to select all of the different ownership fields at once to compare and contrast the different stakes?
44:15 How many lineups can I save in the favorites tab?

In this episode, Andrew discusses ways to add value to your NFL builds. 

Watch on YouTube: https://youtube.com/live/_CwUbdweOXc

00:00 Intro
01:45 What are some ways that you're adding value to your NFL builds after they run?
04:15 For multipliers (NFL - 3x and 5x) where you are trying to get approx. top 33% and 20%, should you be adjusting the number of "uniques" in your lineup pool or does such diversification have less of a role in these types of contests and could actually hurt your performance in the contests?
06:15 For 3 and 5 maxes what's the preferred build setting?
06:55 Please show us an MMA lineup build.
14:55 What is your take on fading high-owned plays that don't affect the overall portfolio projection much?
16:49 I saw an NBA video you did where you're looking for ways to get different with injury value. Do you do anything similar for NFL injury value?
