First day of playing 50 30+3 tournaments a day I drop exactly 10 buy ins to finish off the day at -20% ROI. Assuming I am a 10% ROI player this should happen about 1 in 10 days. I was really hoping to get off to a decent start as a +ROI helps my confidence alot, sadly it is not to be. Tommarow is another day, and in the meantime, could one of u guys give me a little help on these 2 hands?
