Jumping on Players Early

[Alex7089]

I think most people had johnno from the start, the big one to me this year is Seaby, great first 2 rounds and then after everyone got on boat he started spudding it up

To add to the pain it would seem he is injured now, and if he isn't he will fall about  30k to about what he started at, luckily got Cox for him this week. . .  . . . . .

This is why the game of SC is so brilliant. It's a basic psychological principle called reinforcement - the expectation that something will happen in the future because it has happened in the past. It is the same reason that gaming companies are able to rip millions of dollars out of the pockets of poor unfortunate people each year. It actually causes chemical changes in the brain. Hence the amount of trading that happens before teams are announced on Thurs. It doesn't make sense but it happens.
