Alright, listen up, y’all. We gonna talk about this…this… “tennis fantasy score” thing on PrizePicks. Don’t you go gettin’ all confused now, it ain’t as complicated as them city folks make it out to be.
So, you wanna play this PrizePicks thing, huh? Well, first off, you gotta pick your players. They give you a bunch of names, tennis players, I reckon. And you gotta decide if they gonna do better or worse than what the PrizePicks people think they gonna do. That’s the “over/under” they keep jabberin’ about. Like, will Serena – you know, that strong girl with the racket – win more or less games than they say? That’s it, simple as pie.
Now, how do they figure out them scores? It all comes down to games, see? Every game your player wins, they get points. I heard it’s like 2.5 points for each game won. So, if your player wins six games in a set, that’s, uh…let’s see…6 times 2.5…that’s 15 points right there! You with me?
- Win a game, get points.
- Lose a game, no points. Don’t be losin’ now!
- More games won, more points you get. That’s the ticket!
They talk about sets and matches and all that fancy stuff. But for this PrizePicks thing, it’s mostly about them games. A match is usually best two out of three sets, or sometimes best three outta five for the men. Each set, you gotta win six games, or sometimes seven if it’s real close. But don’t you worry your pretty little head about all that. Just focus on them games, that’s where the money is.
PrizePicks, they make it sound all complicated, with their “projections” and “fantasy points.” But it’s just guessin’, plain and simple. They guess how many games a player gonna win, and you guess if the player gonna win more or less than that. You pick two, three, or four players, and if you get ‘em all right, you win some money. Real money, they say! Don’t go bettin’ the farm, though, ya hear?
This “daily fantasy sports” thing, it’s like watchin’ the game and makin’ it a little more…interestin’. You ain’t just sittin’ there watchin’ them fellas hit the ball back and forth. You got somethin’ ridin’ on it! It’s like bettin’ on who can eat the most apple pie at the county fair, but with tennis players instead of pie-eaters.
So, let’s say you pick Serena to go “over” 12.5 games and some other fella, maybe…that Federer guy, to go “under” 14 games. Serena wins 14 games and Federer wins 13. You got ‘em both right! You win! But if Serena only wins 11 games, well, you’re outta luck. See how it works? It’s all about them games, remember?
They got all sorts of strategies, these city folks. They talk about “margin of victory” being the most important thing. That just means winnin’ by a lot, see? If your player wins a set 6-1, that’s better than winnin’ it 7-5. More games, more points, more money in your pocket.
And they got these… “projections,” they call ‘em. That’s just the PrizePicks people guessin’ how good a player gonna do. They look at how the players been doin’ lately, who they playin’ against, all that stuff. But sometimes them fancy folks get it wrong, and that’s where you can win some money. You gotta do your homework, though. Watch the games, see who’s playin’ good, and trust your gut. That’s how I do it.
So, to sum it all up, this PrizePicks tennis thing is about guessin’ if a player gonna win more or less games than what they say. You get points for every game your player wins, and if you get all your picks right, you win some cash. Don’t go gettin’ all tangled up in them fancy words. Just keep it simple, and maybe you’ll win a little somethin’-somethin’. Now go on and have some fun, but remember, don’t spend more than you can afford to lose. That’s the real winner’s secret.
