Description

This episode continues our DFS contest selection research with a focus on isolating and measuring the impact of individual contest characteristics. We also sift through some of the limitations of the approach taken thus far, including issues with data sample size and using fantasy point metrics to grade contests. We’ll also set the stage for the next phase of our research: contest simulation, which we dive into in the next episode.
