What are Stokastic Sims?

Stokastic runs millions of simulations of each slate to produce projections, projected ownership, leverage, and optimal-lineup rates — the numbers on this page — so you build on simulated outcomes, not gut feel.

Does Stokastic have a PGA DFS optimizer?

Yes — the Stokastic PGA DFS optimizer builds optimal DraftKings and FanDuel lineups straight from these Sims projections and projected ownership in seconds.

How do I use PGA projected ownership and leverage?

Leverage flags high-upside plays the field is under-rostering — pairing strong projections with low projected ownership is how you gain an edge in GPPs.
