This weekend, we have a 12-fight PPV card at Vegas. DraftKings has some solid competitions for us to win a lot of money from this week and I can not wait to chase these big prizes. The main GPP is a $15 buy and $50k belongs to 1st place with a total of $250k being paid out. They also have a brand new Qualifier just tournament for $175,000. There’ll be 100 qualifiers for that competition and they’ll compete for a $50k first location price and $175k will probably be distributed between all 100 entries that match. I won my first chair into it last week and will attempt to get my 2nd and 3rd chairs this week if at all possible. Those Qualifier only contests can be actual bankroll suckers therefore be cautious chasing those too hard. I will likely stick to the very best GPP this week and toss 100 or so entries at that $50k decoration, and then I will likely have a few shots in the Qualifier. I will also be posting H2Hs in addition to picking up H2Hs throughout the week to receive a fantastic amount of drama into money games.
With that said, let’s get to a couple plays I enjoy this week Together with my fade of this week:
Money Game play of the week — Jon Jones — $9,600
Jones is a lock for my cash game lineup this week in his -800 gaming lineup. I will take that free square and move on. He must dominate this battle and he can complete it on the feet or the floor. I expect him to score over 100-points and I am totally fine with paying $9.6k for it. When I’m making lineups, I would like to attempt and get at least 10x from every fighter. With Jones being 9.6k, I need at least 96 points . That is how I look at it. If this was a 3-round battle and I didn’t think Jones would find a finish then maybe he just scores 80-85 DK points in a win, and at $9.6k I would not want that. Nonetheless, this is a possible 5-round fight, and that I do expect Jones to control, so that cost is fine with me. For GPPs, I think you can get from Jon Jones since he’ll be very highly possessed. If he is 50% owned by the field and he only scores 85-90 DK points, then that will kill half the area since that wouldn’t be sufficient points to put him that $50k lineup.
GPP play of the week — Ben Askren — $9,000
If Ben Askren wins this battle it’ll be from his wrestling. He is one of the greatest wrestlers in MMA history and now he is finally getting an opportunity from the UFC after controlling every business he’s been in. He will not want to strike for long against Robbie Lawler, so that I expect him to shoot takedowns straight away and string wrestle until he gets them. When he receives high control there is not going to be a lot Robbie can do on the ground and he should take a beating as long as it’s on the mat. On DraftKings, every takedown is 5 points compared to 0.5 points for a significant strike. A guy like Askren can go out there and get 10 takedowns at 15-minutes and that’s what makes him a great play if he can come up with the success.
Underdog drama of the week — Diego Sanchez — $7,100
This really isn’t the Diego Sanchez of older, but I think he still has what it takes to beat Mickey Gall. On the feet, the quantity from Sanchez should acquire it there as long as he does not get knocked out. The chin of Diego is what I worry about most nowadays, but Gall is not much of a striker and that I really don’t see him getting knockout. In addition, I don’t understand that Gall can get takedowns, and that I believe Sanchez would be the likely man to be on top if the struggle hits the floor. A submission is Gall’s best chance at a win here and Sanchez has never been filed. We must have underdogs within our DK lineups and also at $7.1k Diego allows us to cover up for all those guys like Jon Jones or Ben Askren. If he can grind a determination triumph here I presume he can become 10x that wages and when we can find a win from him in the cheap salary, then I think we’ll probably be in line for that $50k win when we hit our additional five spots.
Fade of this week — Anthony Smith ($6,600)
I might wind up using each fighter because I’m making so many lineups this week, but Anthony Smith is the man I want the very least of. I attempt to acquire a favored for you guys as my fade of this week but I don’t believe there are any need to fade favorites this week. Rather, I am going with the 1 fighter I do not think stands a opportunity. I believe that a fluke KO is the only route to victory for Smith and he really doesn’t have the one punch/kick power it might take to pull off. I would be shocked when Smith pulled off the upset this week and when I had been making 20 or less lineups, then he would be a simple fade.
