Re: Trying to Learn the Ropes, Need Advice Please!
Don't know if you've done this before kyt, but an interesting extension of the second article would be to track a tourney with say 15k entries (I play the $2 ones over on fanduel now and then), and assess the lineups of the top three finishers to see if:
a) their lineups are stacked
b) an optimal stacking lineup could compete
c) how close to optimal their lineups are
Idea of course would be to try to find the balance between minimizing the number of darts one has to throw in DFS, and having a legit chance at winning big if your darts hit.
Cheers
When I say track a tourney - I mean track it every day over 2-3 weeks.
