Below, you will find the players we consider the best for the slate. These do NOT account for ownership, but they do account for salary.
This article is for cash games (contests in which roughly 50% of the field gets paid out, such as a head-to-head or double-up) and tournaments. For tournaments, our focus should be more on the projected ownership and projected ceiling columns in our projections table. The rankings should be used as a general guideline.
With that said, these are our Top Plays considering the following factors: median projection, lower volatility, upside, and value. They are listed in price descending order.
Cash Games
| Overall | Brett | Gordo |
| Pennington ($8.4K) | 1 | 1 |
| Harrison ($9.8K) | 2 | 2 |
| Pereira ($9.6K) | 3 | 3 |
| Esparza ($7.5K) | 4 |
With two title fights on the line and a couple of top-end priorities, we’re going to have to make decisions in cash games.
I think the easiest place to start is with the co-main event favorite in Pennington, who has the best PPD projection on the slate and is extremely safe to score points at 8.4k.
I also like the idea of paying up for either Harrison or Pereira, though it’s fairly difficult to fit both. I prefer Harrison for her grappling safety and upside, though I wouldn’t consider it wrong if you pivoted to Pereira for the extra $200.
