    Selling DFS lineups

    What are peoples thoughts on this.

    Obviously it takes away from one's possible expectation (the buyer of the l.u) when they have to pay to get a more competitive lineup, But this already happens a lot.

    I never thought I would sell out and always frowned on ones who did this. Same as I do with the ROTO-HO sites giving away the daily competitive plays on a massive scale, while freerolling themselves. Although if everyone is going to sell shitty lineups and it's actually allowed by the sites (LOL), why not. Its called lineup sharing. But hey I do have good lineups probably better than most could muster so.


    It would be based off of two factors

    1. It would force me to be better every single day and with every single lineup I created.

    2. It would create a more positive expectation game for me (can't lie)


    What is PFA's general opinion of this, and also keep in mind this is already happening on a massive scale in DFS. Its why I think DFS need regulations/governing body etc, but if others going to do it and you don't even consider then you are just a fool.

    thoughts, interest???

    Do you have room for improvement?

    You may be putting more pressure on yourself, and enjoy what you are doing less.

      garrett: oh yea, and in fact this would actually be a forced way to have to improve.

    Garrett, buddy.. you went bananas for 3 pages in my DFS strategy thread without really adding anything of substance or value.. Then you turn around and start this gem, cmon man!

    You need to demonstrate proven methods before I would consider paying you.

    So how about this..

    You give me "free" lineups for 10 days and talk me through how you made them. We'll see how they do and if it goes well we can discuss a reasonable way to proceed.

    garrett -

    if you are going to offer something like this you need to provide some info on how profitable you are

    how much are you up overall in 2015, and what's your roi?

    or do you think finishing 6th in a donkament makes you an expert?

    Similar to a winning poker player. Why would you sell lineups if you can win money?

    If you're that hard up, at least find a couple investors to get you out of a rut, but then your ROI should take over in a hurry.

    You are one of the few guys on PFA I would actually show my data/results too.

    So the whole point of this is to improve your game.

    Anyone will respect that.

    Post your lineups here for a week, maybe more. Since you have your doubters here, this is your chance to shut them up. If you fail, I expect you will be ridiculed heavily.

    I think this is the best incentive you can have to improve your game.



    PS: Going with Adam Jones tonight to get at least 1 hit. Do you have an opinion?
