NFL DFS Tools & Winning Lineup: How to Win Showdowns With Sims

Congratulations are in order for Stokastic user WolfofMainStreet, who took first in the DraftKings $80K Monday Night Showdown, winning $20,000 in the process! Take a look at their lineup in the tweet below — and also note how the difference between first and second was a scant 0.02 fantasy points.

Heading over to the Post-Contest Simulator, we can get a good look at WolfofMainStreet’s lineup relative to how it simulated pre-contest:

So the Sims evaluated this winning lineup as returning 142.2% on investment, and it ultimately returned 1,000 times that. Still the Sims, came through here by labeling this as an extremely high-ROI lineup.

It didn’t stop there — of the 10 lineups that simulated as having the highest ROI, seven returned at least 100% on investment in the actual contest. In other words, the Sims were on it for this Showdown contest.

Now let’s talk about the winner themself. WolfofMainStreet has been a part of the Stokastic community for a couple years, but they only recently began using the Sims. Fun fact, this Sims-aided win for them came via a free month of NFL MAX that they acquired with a previous Hall of Fame induction! Another fun fact, that time WolfofMainStreet took third in FanDuel’s $150K NBA Layup, losing out to Stokastic pro and brain behind the Sims, Steve “dacoltz” Buzzard, by 0.4 fantasy points.

The point here is the value of the Stokastic Hall of Fame. Anything can happen once you grab that free month of Stokastic Sims. And while we, of course, highly recommend you subscribe long-term, placing top 3 in any major contest while rocking the Stokastic avatar looks really good for our product, so we’re more than happy to give you access to it for free. We’ll even shout you out on our YouTube channel!

So why wait? Subscribe today to Stokastic+ NFL (or any other Stokastic+ membership) and give yourself the best shot at cashing huge like WolfofMainStreet did!
