This Pro-Am is tough to predict with all the distractions,6 hour rounds and expected bad weather so went pretty light.

DK

Johnson,Lowry, Snedeker,Gay,Palmer,Mulinax

$1 SE

Reavie,Scott,Grace, Snedeker,Michelle,Watney

FD

$2 50/50 and $1 5man (cashed FD points won in super bowl bingo)

Day,Reavie,Grace,Lowry,Knox,Mulinax

Draft

Cab-Bello,Palmer(Cantlay), Grace,Lowry,Gay

Really liked this until the Cantlay WD

$3 3man 1st pick

Johnson,Cab-Belli,Casey,Kuchar,Speith

Looking like my cheaper guys like Mulinax and Watney are going to drag me down but we will see.

 
FD 50/50 lineup cashed so have some actual money there now.

DK was a total loss.

Draft- won the 3man but didn't advance in the gpp. Was in 1st or 2nd most of the weekend but dropped into 2nd for good when Mickelson took the lead.

 
I'm the only one with this lineup today for final round only at DK:

Kisner

McElroy

Fitzpatrick

Kaymer

RCB

Wallace

53.5 points before even one has teed off.  Should be a fun day with tough pin placements hugging the water.

I find it odd that they award points for where they finish for a single round contest.

Do the Saturday only contests give bonus points if you have the person in 1st place at the end of the round?

 
AFAIK only the full 4 day tourney and the last day give points for place. The final day awards much more for scoring and less weight to placement. I know the final weekend starts over fresh and keeps tally of only Sat/Sun scoring with no placement points.

 
It's the Masters!

Have these in SE and $.25 gpp on DK

Rose,Koepka,Finau,Poultier,Z Johnson,Kisner

Rahm, Matsuyama,Scott,Reed, Poultier, Kisner

FD 50/50

DJ,Mcllroy,Kisner,Finau,Howell,Hoffman

Gpp

Rose, Matsuyama, Speith,Kisner, Howell,Oosthuizen

Good luck to anyone playing!!

 
Matsuyama going to kill some DK & Y! lineups for me.  Good start otherwise though. 

After seeing the ownership, I'm hoping to ride a Conners wave to the promise land.  Molinari much lower than I expected too, glad to have multiple shares there at this point.

Yeah he's killing most of my gpps-hope he can turn it around tomorrow and make the cut.

 
Where was this Harding last week??? No shares this weekend for me, he’s <1% owned too.

The life of a minimal lineup DFS player.

 
Garcia, Sneds, Casey and Rose look like the only real names that missed the cut.

Small field isn’t so bad except when there are a bunch of amateurs and senior citizens making up a decent percentage of the field. 

Sitting in some nice spots right now on all 3 sites. At 10x return on FD. Lots will change, will be fun to see if I even break even.

$5 in $7.20 out on FD. $3.50 in $.75 out on DK and $5 in $18 out on Draft all with no Tiger.

I had 3 FD lineups and the one with Tiger was easily the worst and didn't cash.  Ended up about 2.5x on FD and similar on DK/Yahoo. 

Never really thought about it this way, but thinking back the leader of a big tourney after the 2nd round had like 4 of the 5 or 6 golfers that were tied for 1st.  I think one of mine had 3, or maybe 2 with a 2nd, which is why I was at like 10x.  That's never sustainable.  Only one golfer will finish the weekend off with the 30pt bonus.  Could have multiple 2nd place bonuses, etc.

 
Getting killed by these W/D's.  

WTF happened to Leishman today?

Last week, I had 2 FD lineups, one with Burns (cashed) and one with Woodland (w/d after 3rd, no cash).  Moved every golfer to the weekend (besides Burns of course).

Yeah I got burned by him today too. WD with back problem after lock but before his tee time.

 
Leishman pretty much took out 2 of my lineups but still have 4 that are cashing. Those all have Cabrea-bello though who is looking like he will miss the cut. He is 23-30% owned so may still be able to cash if he does as Leishman was 19-27% owned. Really need Wise to step up and make the cut to secure a + weekend.

 
Ended up doing pretty well as my non Leishman lineups had all 6 make the cut including Kang. On DK was $4 in $20 out and FD $5 in $10.80 out.

Have a $20 entry in the DK millionaire tournament that I won a while back so have a chance at some big bucks next weekend. 

 
I've changed it a bunch of times but think I'm going with this in the $20 millionaire

Day,Fowler,Simpson,Finau,Kisner, Poultier

Right now it's just over half filled so hoping get some overlay. Not going too crazy, just aiming for min cash of $30 but with some upside to get higher.

Got nervous about Day's back so swapped for Casey.

 
Well that was short lived excitement. Only had 4 make the cut so no chance at cashing in the millionaire. If I had used the same lineup as I did in the $2  10x where I'm currently in 1st it would be cashing for $93 so far with all 6 making the cut .

 
FD lineups we're a disaster $5 in zero out.

Used 2 lineups on DK, 1 I used in a $2 10x and a $1 gpp scored 381 and brought back $25. The other I put in a $2 10x and used with my $20 ticket scored 270 and returned nothing. 381 in the $20 contest would have won me $52.27. Still a good week $5 in $25 out. 

 
Had a nice lineup on FD 410pts in the $2 SE and the FDP free roll. 

17th/7142 good for $35 and 10th/6809 for $4. 

5 in 39 out

Didn't do great last week due to Kuchar,Finau a and Thomas tanking most of my lineups but did come out up $.50 on DK and $6 on FD. 

This week looks really tough especially on DK due to the limited number of top players and abundance of guys I've not really heard of. Using the top 4 guys there leaves you with less than 8k for each of your other 5 so fading all of them   . I'm going to use guys mostly in the 7.7k-9k range. I like Piercy,Simpson and Furyk as my core and will mix in guys like Niemann,Walker,Schneiderjans and Laird and a couple flyers if I get back on the Kuchar train 

 
Was alot easier to make lineups on FD 

50/50- Kuchar, Piercy Simpson, Furyk, Niemann, Lashly

100man- DJ,Piercy,Cauly,Walker,Taylor, Van Rooyen

DK

10x- Simpson Furyk Niemann Cauly Van Rooyen Henly

Gpp- Snedeker, Piercy,Furyk,Walker,Hadwi , Lashly

 
All my lineups we're duds last week but went light with just $3 on each site.

I'm using this as my main lineup on both sites- DJ,Cantlay,Simpson, Snedeker,Glover, Saunders

Fading Tiger,Fowler and Rahm in all lineups so expect one of them to win :P

Mixing these guys into lineups- Koepka,Day, Matsuyama,McDowell,Casey, Kuchar and Lowry.

Playing $8 on each site in a mix of 50/50s, 5 man,10x and gpp.

 
Have 2 lineups on Draft

$3 3man has 2nd pick DJ,Speith,Kuchar,Cantlay,Casey

$5 6man picked 6th- Cantlay,Speith,Casey, Snedeker,DeChambeau

Projected to finish last in both contests :(

 
2 $10 lotto tickets for the quarter mill at DK, I'll add more daily's once we see who has the magic:

1. B. Koepka

R. McIlroy

D. Berger

C. Howell III

L. Bjerregaard

K. Aphibarnra

2. Jon Rahm

Jason Day

T. Fleetwood

W. Simpson

Ian Poulter

D. Berger

0 clue what I was doing, but put $1.10 in 2 3rd/4th round gpps.  One was just a 10cent satellite tourney for something on 7/1.  

I have Koepka, Rose, Rahm, Oosthuizen, Wallace, Hadley.   Currently 3rd in the gpp and 1st in the satellite (only places the top 2 for tix).

Nice! Good luck today. My lineups we're a dud especially on DK but could get half my FD money back with some luck today.

 
Those are the frustrating tourneys for me.  They cut to around 60 golfers, which you'd think would give you a nice advantage if you move 6 golfers to the weekend.  But that was not the case.  3 of my 5 FD lineups did just that, and only one min cashed.  Uggh.  

However, on DK, they had like 3 freerolls going, so I entered 3 quarter contests with those lineups.  75 cents in, $3 out.  2 of 3 freebies cashed, but only one quarter.  Go figure.

 
Really need Merritt and Blixt to make the cut or at least not stink again to cash my $2  10x. Seems alot of people took PGA off this week as 4 of my cash contests didn't fill . Just have the $2 10x and $1 gpp on DK and a $1 5man on FD.

 
Missed cashing my 10x last week by 8+ due to Merritt missing 2nd cut and remaining 4 guys only going 7 under combined on Sunday.

This week is going to be tough especially on DK. It's the first ever PGA event in my hometown city of Detroit so there is no course history and it's a pretty weak field . Based on local news stories it's going to be a easy course, not many hazards other than trees, not very deep rough and smooth greens. Not the way I usually build lineups but think if you're playing you have to go star and scrubs. Just playing a few bucks on DK and going mostly DJ with a bunch 7kish guys.

 
So DJ of all players is going to miss the cut and screw me this week. Currently in 4th and cashing in 10x but no one else in the moneyis going to lose anyone. Still a small shot to hold on but need rest of team to come up big on the weekend.

 
Anyone doing the 3M?
Yup, haven't built FD or Yahoo lineups yet, but I'm sure I'll be playing the kids for value (especially on Yahoo where they - Wyatt, Hovland, Morikawa, etc - are deflated weekly) while not going overboard with say Koepka (see DJ missed cut).  Just not sure where some of these big name guys' heads are at in these weaker field birdie fest tournaments.
