Adding an extra leg from the same player actually lowers the payout for a power play...?
I tried this several times with a handful of different players and got similar results. Adding an extra leg from the same player will actually lower the max payout for a power play. That seems broken.
I can understand that it would pay somewhat less of a multiplier because the picks would be correlated. In fact if you pick it the other way (ie Less points but More PRA), it often pays out a higher multiplier than the standard power play (4 leg pays out 11.5x instead of 10x). In other words, I get that choosing picks from the same player will affect the calculation because stats from the same player would be correlated.
But there's no possible justification for why adding a pick, no matter how correlated it is to another pick, should actually DECREASE the payout. Even if it's 100% the exact same stat, picking the same stat twice wouldn't increase the odds of it happening.
Am I missing something here?
