It takes more time to grind away putting in bets than it does to identify where the market is wrong. If half the things I bet blew up and were no longer available, it wouldn't take long to find other things just as easily beatable. But for now, why bother? I don't want to spend more time punching in bets than I already am.
Good outs and collaborators are more scarce than things to beat.
sorry what I meant was the DFS stuff like "thanks rotogrinders" etc etc
what i mean is let's say you sub to a golf specific site and you believe their insights on a certain course or player led to your recent success, then why would you ever want to tweet out a thank you to the site and help them grow, in which case that information loses most of it's value
a few years ago, simply avoiding the injured players was enough edge to be profiting
then as edges narrowed, you had to be the guy who didn't just skip the injured guys, but found which guys would benefit due to their teammate being injured to profit
now doing those is the bare minimum and if you don't do it you're dead money
which begs the question, if you actually believe you're only winning because of information a 3rd party provides you, then why would you ever want to promote that as mainstream?
