Cutlines for cash games on Fanduel (1 Viewer)

[cheese]

. Im also going to try to figure out when I entered the contests, and what time of week is likely to attract the weakest competition.

This, I would be very curious about this.I continually enter throughout the week. Not sure if I am better to be looking day, night, weekend, sunday morning. Just dont know. Also, did you see that FD is limiting entries to 500 for the $10 and under? I am wondering how this will effect the cut lines. I know for the $5 and $10 games alone you would see Jeepers and max with 200 entries each.

I tracked this for a while and decided 2 things were true. The cutline got easier close to kickoffs. My own scores got worse close to kickoffs. I think the optimal thing is to actually build lineups a while in advance and then copy to more games last minute. When I first started the "enter games right before lock" plan, my lineups were full of last minute variations, bumps for late inactives, reactions to weather, etc. I was bad at those things and suspect everyone else is too. Or I guess they rush the lineups in and are sloppy.

Long story short, best plan IMO is know exactly how much of each lineup you're putting in with those lineups in stone. Actually enter them last second according to the plan.

^^ That's exactly what I've been doing the past 2 weeks, and I've had two great weeks in a row. Set your lineup on Saturday night or early Sunday AM. Have it entered in a contest to make sure it's held on the slate you want to play. Start pumping out the contests you want to enter up to your wager amount for the week about 30-45 mins before kickoff. Note that the double-ups, especially large format ones, do fill up about 10 mins before kickoff and will not be there, but that last 10 minutes you can usually add another 3-4 $2 and $5 50/50s.

My Sunday-Monday Cash Lines. These leagues were all entered on Sunday, but the large format Double Ups were early Sunday AM before the London game started. They fill up and disappear, and you're left with the much smaller DU pools. These are listed from earliest entered (before the London game) to latest entered (close to kickoff for the smaller contests).
