Over the past year, our pros here at Stokastic have been raking it in since we rolled out our Contest Simulations DFS tools. From taking down the Milly Maker to snagging $100,000-to-first NBA DFS contests all the way, our crew has been on a winning spree. But, of course, you’d expect that from the pros — the DFS wizards you see topping the leaderboards. What’s even more exciting is how regular folks like you are doing with our Sims and the big bucks they’re winning on DraftKings and FanDuel DFS. Curious to see how much of the prize pool they’re claiming? Let’s dive in!
Today we’re bringing you an example of one of our users winning over $20,000 on DraftKzings with the help of our data and tools! Find out how you can possibly join him at the top of the podium.
User Wins $21,000 With Stokastic’s DFS Tools: Winning DFS Lineups
Zach Roth, aka zroth2 on DraftKings, had a great MLB DFS day a few weeks back, scoring $20,000 with a runner-up in the $200K Bat Flip and another $1,000 by winning the $5K mini-MAX. In the Bat Flip, he missed out on the top prize by less than a fantasy point.
Like I did with Deon, our $9,000 Stokastic subscriber winner, I wanted to get a grasp of the type of DFS player Zach is — how long he’s been playing his general strategy, etc. Sometimes you run across a SeanGeezy — an everyman who professes to not be a pro but then enters the Stokastic Hall of Fame on thrice-weekly basis. Is Zach another?
Zach told me that he is a regular player of MLB and NBA DFS since those are the truly “daily” of the daily fantasy sports. He also dabbles in MMA and NFL from time to time, but NBA and MLB are his go-to options. He also said that he primarily plays flagship contests.
In other words, his interests match those of your average DraftKings player, with perhaps a little bit less interest in NFL than others.
Now, Zach’s profile as a DFS player is slightly different from your everyday DraftKings user. For one, Zach said that he “been lucky to have a few $50,000 wins over the years.” That’s more than just about 99% of DraftKings users can say. Also, for Bat Flip, Zach entered 20 lineups at $18 each rather than 150-maxing like Deon did in last week’s profile.
This was the contest to multi-enter without maxing, though — Zach’s lineup ROI was the second best of the slate, trailing (obviously) the winner bigedak, who entered 22 lineups. That’s about as good as one can ask for beyond single entering and somehow pulling five figures.
One thing that differs Zach from Deon, and many other Stokastic Hall of Fame inductees, is that he did not use our Sims. Rather, he built lineups with help from Stokastic data and other DFS tools. So for all of you who find the Sims daunting (or expensive), remember that we also have great data-only packages that you can check out here, and our projections are still the best when it comes to improving your ROI.
Zach offered some advice as well: Whether you have the Sims, data or whatever else we offer, it’s important to use the tools to avoid blindly guessing. That strategy helped Zach out, as evidenced by the $21,000 he won with this lineup alone. See how it can work for you too and sign up for one of our Stokastic+ DFS tools packages!
