This weekend, we’ve got an 11-fight card at Greenville, South Carolina. DraftKings has some adequate competitions for us to win a lot of money from this week. The most important GPP is a $15 buy-in and $25k goes to 1st place with a total of $120k being paid out. They also have a Qualifier only competition for $175,000. There will be 100 qualifiers for that contest and they will compete for a $50k first location cost and $175k will be spread out between all 100 admissions that qualify. I will attempt to receive my 3rd seat this week to max it if I could. Those Qualifier only contests can be actual bankroll suckers, so be careful chasing those overly hard. I will probably stick to the very best GPP this week and then throw a small number of entries at that $30k decoration, and then I will probably take a few shots in the Q. I will also be publishing H2Hs as well as picking up H2Hs throughout the week to receive a good quantity of play into money games.
With that said, let’s get to a few plays I like this week Together with my fade of the week:
Money Game play of this week — Main Event STACK — Renato Moicano and Chan Sung Jung
For me personally, this is a simple stack in cash week. I think we readily have a floor of 100 with Renato Moicano and The Korean Zombie with upside of ~150. It also guarantees us the winner. As I have mentioned several times previously, we do not need 6 wins in cash games, therefore play those kind of games all you’ve got to do is beat half the area. Normally 4 wins or 400+ points is good enough to money in the majority of cash games. Even in case you have a strong lean with this fight I still recommend stacking.
GPP drama of this week — Jairzinho Rozenstruik — $9,000
Rozenstruik has the greatest ITD line on the card in -140 and he could hit 100+ DK points by getting that in round 1. The worry here will be him being on his back in around 1 and scoring zero points through that and then going out and getting a KO in round 2. Or no KO at all. Either of these would take him off the optimal lineup so we want this fight to stay standing and ideally an early KO. I think that’s extremely possible and he’ll be a heart GPP drama of mine . He is not the best money game play though because he can be put on his back and be stuck there and perhaps even lose the battle that way. I am OK with him cash, but I won’t be making a priority like I’m being overweight in GPPs.
Underdog drama of the week — Anderson Dos Santos — $7,900
This betting line is about pickem’ having a small lean towards Dos Santos. But, Ewell is the preferred on DraftKings and is $400 more than ADS. Ewell is also the striker so for him to score highly he’s going to need a finish. His weakness is Anderson Dos Santos’ strength though. Ewell has a hard time staying off his back and if ADS can put him he could possibly submit him. Or he could rack up multiple takedowns for a high decision rating. I enjoy the value we’re getting on him at $7.9k and that I like that he should be looking to grapple in this particular fight. That is the reason why I needed to select him as my dog of this week.
Fade of the week — Syuri Kondo $8,000
There aren’t any real easy fades this week. I really do have a full fade on Kondo however because she looks to be purely a striker and I believe Ashely Yoder’s greatest path to victory is through grappling. If Kondo is not in a striking game for 15-minutes I really don’t see how she scores tremendously unless she gets a finish. I don’t believe she’s KO power, so I think it’s purely the significant strikes and the triumph bonus that we would be relying here. I’d rather have a fighter with more of a chance to complete or who’s more inclined to grapple. That is why Kondo is my fade of this week.
