ETR recently rolled out their sim product, so Adam Levitan and Mike Leone joined us to share their thoughts on the Sim wars. Bric explains the three types of sims and Leone and Levitan discuss how they utilize The Solver sims from a handbuilder perspective. Other topics discussed: are sims removing the fun in DFS, how to know if sims are good, a new thought on chalk defenses, and projecting small-field DFS exposures. Check out the Solver’s sim tool: https://bit.ly/46aN8MZ

clip that for the intro 🤣
1:06:36 Levitan’s relationship with DFS ownership!
From dabbling with RTS it is incredibly easy to absolutely destroy the output with even the slightest tweaks
Ok let’s start over what porno?😂😂
unironically here for the quantile regression discussion ❤
Really great episode
We need Levitan’s “I did not masturbate” line to follow “hot naked girls doing yoga” in the intro 😅
Loved this episode, the drama stuff is fun but always enjoy when you have “friends of the show” on
One of best LoLz episodes ever!!
Do you guys think it is still possible to win without using solvers?
Levitan with the manz reference #OG 👀👀
45:45 The Starving DFS player
I enjoyed this episode, even though I play primarily single entry/3 entry max, I'm always interested in the conversations around the top of the dfs food chain
Loved the sim discussion. 👍
Enjoyed the show. If the Smurfs played DFS, Grouchy Smurf would say "I hate Sims"!
DYING at Levitan’s outro lol
Howdy yall
Pure fucking Gold
Love this crew. Good pod
