I found your videos on accident last year. best mistake ever 😂😂. I doubled stacked EVERY slate last season and it made a big difference. also everything that was said in this video you preach weekly in first look and top stacks video. appreciate the content al !

[@alsmizzle]

Thanks and GL this season

[@distributederik]

I think the biggest lesson learned I got from this, for me and how I have played over the years, is that I haven’t used the mini stack, or secondary stack enough in a lineup with a larger primary stack from another game enough.. It seems so obvious but it literally has slipped my mind more times than it should have. This will refine my approach! Thanks, Al!

[@playingwithgaming]

I think one of the biggest things before building lineups is you have to identify the chalk for that week and decide if you're fading it or locking it in. Because even just knowing the chalk plays is very important

[@ColdHouTX]

I had to come here and leave a comment in regards to this video. I like to play maybe a single bullet in a large field GPP every week in the NFL and I usually get destroyed. I've cashed on occasion but nothing too serious. I've been meaning to watch this video all season long and last week I finally had time to. It took some time but I built a lineup around the rules stated in this video and I was in the top 1% of the game nearly all day. Even finding myself in 34th place of the $3 play action game on DK after 3pm. I didn't have enough action in the late window to make any serious moves to stay there but it was by far my most successful week and promising for the future. I'm realistic that not every build will go as well as that one did but to take the rules from this video and apply it to one entry one time and do that well I think really speaks to the fact that this is the way to win large field GPPs.

Great video Al, thanks! Rookie salaries allow for a rushing QB, the top 2 RBs and salary left over.

[@alsmizzle]

Yup, the Rookie RB's are super cheap in Week 1.

[@johnmcdevitt1050]

I am so ready for the season to begin. I like this video a lot and it does help to get a better look at what has happened to help shape what may happen. I would love to see a video on week 1 history in the Milly maker (say last 3 years) and see how that first week (which is always different than most weeks the rest of the season) played out.

[@alsmizzle]

Tough to add videos to an already packed in-season schedule.

[@daremo50na76]

Exactly what I was looking for! Thanks Al.

[@jonschafer1356]

Damn…your channel gonna single handedly get me the milly This is crazy info

[@Hailmaryy28]

Amazing content as always my dude 🔥. My lineups have improved tremendously since I've been watching your channel. I don't play high stakes nor do I play every week but as a casual player I almost had a couple big cash outs but injuries or the refs screwed me out of 1 player every time. Can't wait to take it more seriously this season. DA BEARS!!!!🐻 LET'S GOOOOO!!

[@alsmizzle]

Thanks!

[@ryankelly1826]

You win the millionaire maker by getting extremely extremely lucky, I mean there’s ways to give yourself a better shot but as you know you gotta get lucky, congrats on winning a million also Al, it’s a amazing accomplishment, love your content as always

[@alsmizzle]

Of course you have to get really lucky, I said as much in the video. The point is to put yourself and your lineups in the best position to get lucky by giving yourself as many bites at the apple as you can and also more frequently than your opponents.

[@ryankelly1826]

@Mudmann13 al would tell you himself just as he told me, he got lucky, and it’s still an amazing accomplishment, but to win those you need luck and skill

[@alsmizzle]

@@ryankelly1826 The skill is to put yourself in the position to win multiple times. I've got a 1st, a 2nd, 3 other top 10's and 15 top 50's.

[@RedStorm1383]

What are your thoughts on having a TE in the flex spot?

[@alsmizzle]

Use it sparingly

[@jarrodshurock1067]

Love your videos! Really helping me consistently win. I know the season started and you're busy with all of your content but is there any chance you make a video about the player model and your thought process with it on fantasy labs?

[@alsmizzle]

Awesome, thank you! I go through how to script out rules on the Labs model every showdown slate video. I hope that helps.

[@angelina_explores]

Great video! Thanks!

[@alsmizzle]

Glad you liked it!

[@playingwithgaming]

I'd really like to know for the top 100 if there's a correlation between having the same teams rb and te on a team where you have a higher chance of capturing a td

[@9thWard5386]

i think i know the answer but if you are maxing out 4 different 20max contest would u play same 20 lines in all 4 contest are run 80 different lineups

it depends.

I noticed that one of the suggested rules on Fantasylabs is to "pair D with exactly 1 RB from the same team" - do you think that's a viable rule to add to the ones you outlined in this video? Thanks for providing great videos like this....

[@alsmizzle]

You can but not necessary.

[@The__Chad]

What’s the formula for how many points a player should score to pay off their salary?

[@alsmizzle]

It doesn't really work that way for tournaments. You need ceiling probability and a correlated lineup. Multiples are more for cash games.

The bengals WR’s are super underpriced for week 1. You can easily double stack them with Burrow and afford the top RB’s or Kelce

[@alsmizzle]

Yup

[@mikek.1372]

Do you think these concepts carry over to FanDuel? I think the only obvious one that doesn't is using your flex for a WR, I think FanDuel you should use it on a RB

[@alsmizzle]

Generally speaking, yes they carry over. FD is more touchdown dependent than DK so just roster the players that are going to score all the touchdowns.

I've noticed that in the millionaire maker if you don't have any players in the late afternoon games you'll have close to zero % chance of winning. All early afternoon line-ups never (close) win...just my observation

[@alsmizzle]

When the player plays has no bearing on if they'll score the most points. You have to be basically perfect to been a couple hundred thousand people and time of kickoff has nothing to do with it.
