MMA DFS Picks: DraftKings Expert Survey for UFC 306 – O’Malley vs. Dvalishvili
What are your thoughts about stacking the 5-round fight in cash games?
SquirrelPatrol: Cash games could see heavy duplication on this unique slate, with several very obvious builds resulting from stacking both sides of both of the 5-round main events. I’d stack all four fighters despite the possibility of duplication, as these fights should be extremely high scoring on both sides.
h3budda: I am going to double-stack both 5-round fights. You are locking in -200 in the women’s fight and -110 in the men’s fight to go to a decision. It’s such a small slate without any values, so you can get away with the double stack. Ode Osbourne may be the only value outside of Dvalishvili.

Moneyball16: Both of these 5-round fights are great fights to stack in cash. Both fights are evenly matched and favorites to go the full 5 rounds. O’Malley/Dvalishvili is -110 to go the distance and is a fight between two fighters who have shown the ability to put up huge DFS scores. Grasso/Shevchenko has less upside but has an enormous floor with it -155 to go the full 5 rounds.
Bward586: I typically prefer to use three of the four 5-round fighters on multiple title-fight slates. It’s hard figuring out who to fade in this one, given both fights have relatively close lines and solid odds to go the full 25 minutes. There’s also not a ton of solid cash game value elsewhere, so I’ll likely stick with the double stack of both fights.
Which fight are you most likely to avoid and why?
