    Link to the pat mayo listener league.

    15 in, no rake, great payout structure and fills fast.

    I've avoided playing that myself, its good that its rake free but I presume anyone playing it would obviously be listening to his show and be clued up to the game somewhat, so the field would be potentially a shark fest, maybe I'm overthinking it though.

    Gonna give a bash at entering 20 teams in the $3 this week. No fantasy national sub yet so will have to rely on the old fashioned excel to generate teams. How many players would ye typically have in your pool for entering 20 teams? And for your main fancies how many teams would ye usually put these in?

    Ya I know what you mean alright, I just take it as he is popular and there usually is enough people in the world to make.this things profitable,

    But ya I guess yiu don't get the complete duds. You might in other tournaments,

    It actually kinda depends how heavy you are on your core guys, like if you were 100 on 3 dudes you would end up scattering a lot of picks around in the other positions.

    That's been hyper aggressive and something I wouldn't do although I tend to nudge quite high on a few guys most weeks.

    But if you have a core 6 8 guys you want to be trying to match the field owned percentage on them or getting above it.

    You can actually look at what the big players do in the milly and a few other tournaments in the links I posted above on fantasy labs, to get an idea what the big boys are at.

    Once you aren't spreading around your picks too much and being underweight on everyone you should be fine though.

    It's hard to give and exact number as everyone is different in how much varience they want in there lives, I tend towards the more aggressive side personally.

    How long is a piece of string basically, totally player dependant on what you want to do! I'd suggest less is more tbh.

    I was guilty of trying to get too many players in my teams to cover all angles but it doesn't really work out. Your best bet imo as Mick already suggested would be to pick a core group of players, maybe 3 or 4 that you really fancy and work them in to most of your 20 teams, the popular players most weeks would range from 20-25%(approx) ownership, so the key thing would be to make sure you have them in more teams than their ownership, so that if they play well you have the upper hand on the field, up to yourself how agressive you wanna get, it's risk reward just like a driveable par 4! If you put a player in 60-70 or even 100% of teams and he misses the cut then that amount of teams are immediately fcked!

    Personally this week I'm entering 40 teams again 20 x $4 and 20 x $2 contests, I have 32 players in total, it's hard to get too aggressive this week imo as the field is so stacked, so I have 4 core players in 35% of my teams, that's as risky as I'm prepared to go! I've a couple of low priced guys in approx 20% of teams, Most of my other players are either good players who are slightly above their ownershiip projection or else low priced guys spread around as I'm not comfortable having such donkeys in too many teams!

    It would be nice to have everyone covered but unfortunately you have to fade big names as you can't get them all in! Notable absentees for me this week are.... Brooks, Simpson, Rory, Rose, Cantlay, Tiger among others!
    Ya I know what you mean alright, I just take it as he is popular and there usually is enough people in the world to make.this things profitable,

    Don't mind me, I just stuck 1 team in for a laugh!


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,989 ✭✭✭Potential Underachiever


    Might I also add, I have chosen the $2 and $4 contests this week due to their field size, I'm trying to play with smaller fields, think there's like 9k in these, very hard in the bigger ones with 100k in them to make a decent cash imo.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,750 ✭✭✭redzerdrog


    Still getting the hang of this so a couple $5 single entry tourney for me

    After playing Henley pretty much every week from the restart im dropping him this week, its just his long irons arent great and he is back on a bad enough putting surface for him. Not loving it but dropped a lot of shares of him from the PGA because of that also, was high on him last week.

    Im also pretty much all in on bryson this week, he just gains so much OTT and on the green, his irons from where they will be hitting on par 3s is very good (16 holes over a tournament if he makes the cut) 3 par 5s which will put him in similar ranges and a driveable par 4.

    8 holes where you might consider him the best in the field.

    Has yet to get hot with his irons this year since the restart at least and it should happen for an upper tier player eventually

    Also number 1 in birdie or better conversion rate, now thats still a putting stat (high variance stat) but one I think helps show the psychology side of putting

    Ive come back and forth on lots of guys, i'll be heavy enough on day, wolf.

    Quite like Byeung An, just wish his long irons where better this season but they have been good on previous years and his putting is trending very well, also he has had an outlier number of big numbers recently if you look back through his score cards, which is something i like, 1 its not normal for any tour professional and 2 has made him look worse from a glance then i feel he's been playing.

    Adam Schenk Im rounding out a few teams with, mainly based on his longer irons (when i say long irons i mean distance from green as opposed to clubs)

    Also have some straka, stallings and a touch of hoge down here

    Gulp!!


    My core consists of Bryson, Day, Wolff and Finau! So we are both fcked!


    When you say all in on Bryson, how much exactly? you going 100, how many teams ye got etc.... I've had Staka a fair bit the last few comps, missing the cut last week hurt me! So I've ditched him! I'm liking Burns and Davis from the lower range!

    Ha! Bryson, Wolff and Finau here also!
    Not settling on Tony yet.
    Any thoughts on a pivot to Tiger? He played well T2G at PGA.

    I'm not interested in Tiger myself, from fantasy national Finau is projecting very popular with people, looking like twice as much ownership as Tiger so I guess if you wanted to make a contrarion move then Tiger would be the better play, go with your gut, you can have all the stats and info you like but that doesn't mean Finau won't go out and play like a 24 handicapper, if it was that predictable then the likes of Pat Mayo would clean up every week!

    I also like Reed as a pivot!

    Think Ive about 28 teams this week and Bryson heading 26 of them. Just really feel he gets a hard time on american coverage, including podcasts and he is nearly always undervalued or owned.

    2 weeks since the restart i didnt play him once he won at a very high% other he missed the cut, so anytime i have played him he has pretty much payed off

    All in the 5 dollar, in the 20 3 dollar, 3 in mayos, couple in the 25 and a satellite team.

    Probably my last week putting in any real effort while the fedex is on absolutely hate playing the really small field eveents although maybe if they have captains for them it might be worth it0

    I probably never play Tiger as he is never priced low enough to justify his current body and is always over owned as he is so popular, just think its the way to go.

    Not to put you off or say its a bad play, but honestly its much easier for me just to take him off the table nearly every week

    I like your style, very ballsy! I haven't the bottle to go all out attack like you have there, hope it pays off for you.

    I like Bryson in a pantomime villain sort of way, he's something different than the majority of pros, I'm all for it, I like Reed too! Would be too boring if they were all just golf robots.

    Shame this is the last comp with a cut for a few weeks alright, I'm sure I will still play teams the next couple of weeks but yea it will not be as appealing.

    I wouldn't do it most weeks just but I will on occasion if I really fancy one of the top 10k guys, its kind of a mini tournament in itself and if your pick is the highest finisher its a big part of the battle.

    Now thats kind of obvious and easy say but I feel there is much to like about Bryson this week hopefully the irons get hot and not the putter going cold just really like his putting stroke from a repeatable standpoint.

    All that being said I may when I look later move some shares to DJ as its hard to pass up a low owned guy who could go out and win, he has played some good golf recently outside of the 2 weeks I reckon he just gave up.

    Hate seeing Day is going to be the monster chalk this week, really hate playing such high chalk but not sure what to do about that now, just hope people are put off by it a little considering its kinda been on the cards all week

    Ah ya I'll throw in a few teams next week or 2 no doubt but it'll be very few

    The FedEx Cup playoffs begin this week on the PGA Tour as the boys head to TPC Boston for the Northern Trust. There are now 124 players in this field (V.Taylor WD), and the T65 and ties will make the weekend. FedEx Cup points are needed for the bubble boys as only the top 70 in the FedEx Cup standings will get to play next week at the BMW Championship. If you’re betting on the golf action this week or playing DFS on DraftKings or FanDuel, then these key stats are a critical starting point for your research. I’ve only included the players in this week’s field for reference. As always, all of the stats are courtesy our friends at Fantasy National Golf Club.

    TPC Boston is and Arnold Palmer design that Gil Hanse redesigned (and made more difficult) a few years back. At around 7,342 yards, this par 71 is a bombers paradise with wide fairways, slightly larger than average greens, wind as it’s only real defense. Past champions over the last five years at TPC Boston include; Bryson Dechambeau (pre steroids), Justin Thomas and Rory Mcllroy. We’ve got 3 par 5’s with only really 2 that are “gettable”. The par 3’s play quite long and require shot distances over 200 yards for 3 of the 4. The greens are bent grass and very fast, similar to Augusta National. We’ve also seen a handful of players mention how tricky the greens can be to read, so experience at TPC Boston may be something to consider. At the end of the day, we’re looking heavily at driving distance, SG: Approach, and long term SG: Putting on bent grass.

    1. Strokes gained tee to green from last time they played at TPC Boston (2018 Dell): 1. Watson 2. Mitchell 3. Koepka 4. DJ 4. DeChambeau 5. Grillo 6. Ancer 7. Woodland 8. Rose 9. Finau 10. Cantlay

    2. Historical GIR leaders are TPC Boston (min 8 rounds): 1. List 2. Casey 3. Scott 4. Cantlay 5. DJ 6. McIIroy 7. Fowler 8. Berger 9. Woodland 10. Glover

    3. Strokes gained putting leaders last 50 rounds on Bent that also rank in the top 100 in ball striking: 1. Na 2. Spieth 3. Rose 4. Horschel 5. English 6. Fowler 7. Kisner 8. Hadwin 9. Day 10. DeChambeau

    4. If I make a custom model with courses that are 7200-7400 yards, bent greens, and extremely fast greens, your top 10 in total strokes gained are: 1. Rahm 2. Fowler 3. Cantlay 4. McIIroy 5. DeChambeau 6. DJ 7. Finau 8. Leishman 9. Matsuyama 10. Rose

    5. If I make another model with JUST strokes gained ball striking on courses that are 720-7400 yards, long rough, and average to difficult in scoring your top 10 are: 1. Cantlay 2. McIIroy 3. Casey 4. DJ 5. Scott 6. Bradley 7. Morikawa 8. Matsuyama 9. Rose 10. Woods



    6. Top 10 in opportunities gained the last 12 rounds: 1. Koepka 2. Wolff 3. Henley 4. Horschel 5. Palmer 6. List 7. Piercy 8. Moore 9. Davis 10. Norlander

    7. Strokes gained on the par 5’s will be the most important at TPC Boston this week, so top 10 in strokes gained on the par 5’s are: 1. McIIroy 2. Streelman 3. Day 4. Morikawa 5. Schauffele 6. JT 7. Rahm 8. DeChambeau 9. Cantlay 10. Reed

    8. Top 10 in GIR’s gained the last 12 rounds: 1. Henley 2. Oosthuizen 3. Wolff 4. Morikawa 5. Koepka 6. List 7. Schauffele 8. Redman 9. Day 10. Kokrak

    9. The two highest approach shot distribution buckets this week are 150-175 & 200+, so top 10 in proximity are: 1. Morikawa 2. HV3 3. Reavie 4. JT 5. Lowry 6. Matsuyama 7. Mickelson 8. Grillo 9. Kokrak 10. Scott

    10. Top 10 ‘values’ on DK compared to FanDuel pricing: 1. Fowler 2. Ancer 3. Im 4. Fleetwood 5. Kisner 6. Na 7. Horschel 8. Davis 9. Oosthuizen 10. Rose

    I'm going to drop wolf ive too much chalk, probably too much recency bias going on, 20% projected ownership is too much.

    Just too volatile and unpredictable at that ownership

    Edit: last post of the night: adding in a decent amount of dahmen


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,792 ✭✭✭CMcsporty


    Definitely keeping Wolff
    I don’t fully understood the hang up with ownership. If your team is below the salary cap by a couple of hundred At least - still have a strong chance of a unique lineup?

    Ya it's not all. About being unquie it's just hard to win big if you have all. The chalk without being perfect.

    Also. Its an issue of leverage on a volitile or unknown player (sample size still small) like as is said is he 3 times a better player then the ones around him on 5% or so.

    Like. You have to eat the chalk sometimes I just wasn't prepared to do it on wolf after doing it on a few others

    Finau comes in at the highest in the end anyways :)

    What does “chalk” mean in DK terminology?
    It’s Related to high ownership... but how?

    I'm only familiarising myself with that expression the last few weeks, yes it means highly owned, highly favoured players but where it comes from I've no idea tbh and googling it didn't really shed any light on it. Mick is the resident Pat Mayo so maybe he can fill us in!

    Regards this week! Disappointing day from my core, Bryson, Day and Finau all stumbling out of the blocks, need big rounds from them tomorrow, cut probably gonna be at least -3 and maybe -4, assuming conditions are similar as today. Wolff the only one who performed.

    I could also do with Doc Redman scorching the course tomorrow, my best team points wise by a distance after Day1 has him being the only blemish, Thomas -3, Scott -5 , Wolff -6, Henley -7, English -7 completes the rest of the team. Let's go Doc!!


  • Posts: 0 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Ya I'm not really sure where the term originates from but chalk is the highest owned guys,

    For better or worse I try avoid some of it most weeks especially if I can avoid the highest one depending on how I feel about them.

    Didn't see finau coming in highest this week which is a shame I'd have had no bother jumping off a guy who so rarely wins

    Nice teams there PU hopefully redmon gets going for you anything can happen when a course is given up lots of birdies

    Awful start again this week for me feel like I'm over thinking it a bit, after a brutal day I had to laugh when Henley nearly holed out for albatross, I jumped off hap tong at the pga after playing him for over a year or more religiously too so maybe I'll post my anti tips up in future.

    Byrson is annoying could have been 3 4 easily 2 under in the first 3 and then bogeys the drivable par 4 with a 3 putt.

    Irons were awful after that though he deffo runs hot headed when he feels he should be doing better.

    DJ was superb t2g as was wolf.

    No real run from any of the 10k guys yet so I feel like I could get out of jail if big bryson gets on a run.

    Although JT looked very good after a poor start.

    Hatton seems happy with his game he is usually pretty honest in his interviews.

    Best of luck with yer teams tomorrow


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,989 ✭✭✭Potential Underachiever


    DeChambeau and Finau BOTH playing terribly thus far, running out of time.

    I dodged a bullet by switching from Bryson to DJ
    But Wolff and Luis Oosthuizen are the only other guys performing.

    Reed needs a few birdies

    If Djs gets the putter rolling he could do damage but tis a big if.

    Danny Lee was the answer this week it seems :(

    Not going great, i suppose it only takes one team to do well, it won't be one involving Finau, DeChambeau or Day though by the looks of it! I pick em well!

    it's not easy to get 6/6 through this week, here's a good site to keep track of these things..

    Day ejects and i think thats me done

    And rose ejection might not even get a 4/6


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,989 ✭✭✭Potential Underachiever


    Well looks like I will manage to scrape 1 single solitary team through with 6/6, looks like I have a good few 5/6s Morikawa and Redman being my two main squad wreckers!

    Team through is DJ, Berger, Thomas, Davis, Gooch, Werenski.

    Gooch really tried his best to fck it up starting at -5 , he dropped back to -1 but a late hattrick of birdies, turned him into a hero again.

    Will probably throw in 3 teams into showdown tomorrow.

    Was 20th in the pat mayo after yesterday with a single bullet. Not so good today and day missing the cut means it's downhill again from here. Didn't get around to doing 20 teams that I'd planned, will likely be post fed ex now that I give it a proper go, next few weeks with reduced fields not as appetising.

    Did any of ye used to do the Irish times fantasy golf out of interest? Missing it big time this year, have done it every year for about 18 years.

    Billy Ho not doing great either, I know as he's in a few of my teams!


    it's not easy to get 6/6 through this week, here's a good site to keep track of these things..

    I completely misread Horschels score earlier!!! Must have thought it was a - rather than +

    Yeah played it the last 3 or 4 years and was convinced I will win it one year, I was genuinely fuming about the golf being shut down and the fact the fantasy wouldn't go ahead,I was looking forward to it ever since last years comp ended! now that I've found draftkings I'm not as bothered though!

    I did so bad at the Irish times golf played it last 2 years I was pyched for it, but like FPL if ive to keep up weekly on things I do badly also not any way knowledgeable on euro golf.

    Harman watson and streelman ones to watch for the weekend if they can get a putter going probaly going to fire up some low buy in weekend teams

    Will probably throw in some rose, now he has squeaked in, short game not working this week in a total turn around and won be a decent clip before when he made the cut at the open with a puit on the last to get through

    Won a weekly one year and came 3rd another year but it is tough. Far prefer it to the DK just like the planning ahead etc.

    How do you plan ahead is the thing when you dont know who is playing what, i mean I know you have 4 subs around tbf but ya I often forget about it.

    Euro tour entry lists are usually out about 3 weeks in advance. A lot of pga tour events will have some of the field listed a couple of weeks ahead. Subject to pull outs etc naturally.

    Certain players play the same events each year. A bit of guess work but you can get a bit ahead of the field in terms of maximising number of players playing each week. Then you have others like Im who generally tend to play a lot.
