It never fails that when I start to sweat contest bets I lose every pick, lol.
When I was top 3 on the leaderboard I never looked to see who I was on. When I saw I was in 1st after Minnesota won 2 days ago I started following each game closely and since then I'm 0-7.
I need to start a superstition where if I see I'm doing well in a contest I do something productive like clean a bathroom or meal prep. At least that way if my picks crash and burn I'll have gotten something done.
GL to all those who still have a shot at winning.
