DFS strategy, lineups for Round 9

The ninth round of the free-to-enter NHL Yahoo Cup runs on Thursday, and there’s still time to join the contest and win your share of $5,000 if you haven’t already! There are 10 games on the slate, which gives daily fantasy managers lots of options to choose from. Most of the NHL’s top offensive teams are squaring off against strong defensive squads, which means it may not be wise to stack powerhouses like the Carolina Hurricanes, Toronto Maple Leafs, and Edmonton Oilers on Thursday. With that… Source link

Yahoo DFS Picks Week 14: NFL DFS lineup advice for daily fantasy football GPP tournaments

The head of the snake for our Week 14 Yahoo DFS tournament lineup is Taysom Hill, who reminded us how quickly he can turn a poor game in real life into a worthwhile fantasy performance. He’s complemented by what we feel is a strong group of skill position players that offer high ceilings without presenting too much of the “all-or-nothing” type of risk we’ll often assume with our picks when chasing for GPP success. This might be one of our more chalky DFS… Source link

Yahoo DFS Basketball: Monday Picks

The NBA starts off the week in busy fashion with 10 games on the schedule Monday. There are some underwhelming matchups on the slate, including the Pistons hosting the Thunder. However, there are also some stellar matchups, one of which is the Bulls taking on the Nuggets. Another features the surprisingly tough Cavaliers traveling to Milwaukee to face the Bucks. The Cavaliers lost to the Jazz on Sunday, but they put up another valiant effort in the one-point defeat. Let’s dive into some… Source link

DFS strategy, lineups for Round 8

The eighth round of the free-to-enter NHL Yahoo Cup runs on Thursday, and there’s still time to join the contest and win your share of $5,000 if you haven’t already! After the tournament paused last week for Thanksgiving, it picks right back up this week with 10 NHL games on the slate. Here are three lineup combinations I recommend playing in Round 8 of the tournament. Option 1: Hammer the Hurricanes Stack The Carolina Hurricanes are a team worth loading up on for Round 8 of the Yahoo Cup…. Source link

Yahoo DFS Basketball: Thursday Picks

Thursday brings a limited five-game slate in the NBA. The Suns will try to extend their 17-game winning streak in a matchup against the Pistons, although they’ll have to do it without Devin Booker (hamstring). The Knicks and Bulls will face off in New York, and a noteworthy absence in that game will be Coby White, who is out for the Bulls after testing positive for COVID-19. The other significant game on the schedule will be the Bucks, who are playing the second game of a back-to-back set,… Source link

Yahoo DFS Picks Week 13: NFL DFS lineup advice for daily fantasy football GPP tournaments

Twelve weeks are down and six remain in the regular season. The injury bug struck again in a big way last week, providing us with some value daily fantasy football plays to complement some higher-priced investments. We’re pairing Joe Burrow with Joe Mixon as a sneaky stack to headline our Week 13 Yahoo DFS lineup. Mixon has scored a pair of receiving touchdowns, so it’s not irresponsible to gamble on a third connection this week. Of course, we’ll mix in some… Source link

Yahoo DFS Picks Week 12: NFL DFS lineup advice for daily fantasy football GPP tournaments

Week 12 sees Kansas City and Arizona on a bye, and Thanksgiving and the usual Sunday and Monday night games take away 10 teams from our main slate. If you’re keeping track, that leaves just 20 teams in play for our Week 12 Yahoo DFS lineups. Since we’re playing in GPP tournaments, a lot of our selections are boom-or-bust by nature. We’d rather fall flat going for big money than make “safe” picks and end up with a lineup incapable of paying off huge if things go… Source link

Yahoo DFS Picks Week 11: NFL DFS lineup advice for daily fantasy football GPP tournaments

We’re running with a three-headed backfield as the spine of our lineup this week. Christian McCaffrey and Dalvin Cook command a hefty chunk of salary, but there are some enticing mid-priced, high-upside players available, too. Per usual, we’re accepting the volatility that comes with an all-or-nothing GPP approach for our Week 11 Yahoo DFS lineup. Again, since we’re playing in GPP tournaments, a lot of our selections are boom-or-bust by nature. We’d rather fall… Source link

Yahoo DFS Picks Week 10: NFL DFS lineup advice for daily fantasy football GPP tournaments

As usual, despite four teams being on bye and six teams playing in prime-time games, there’s a nice mix of top-tier studs, under-priced mid-priced values, and lower-cost sleepers at our disposal for our Week 10 Yahoo DFS lineup. Use our picks and advice to at least inform your decisions for your lineups. As always, we’re playing in GPP tournaments (rather than cash games), so we want to avoid too many obvious plays that will be heavily owned in our picks. That… Source link
