Default Target ROI

What ROI percentage do you guys shoot for? I've heard 20% and 30% but I was wondering what you aim for.

This is a difficult question to answer because every player is different. While a 30% ROI at the 22's is attainable, the same ROI at the 215s is not. If you're just starting out, the best ROI goal to make is having it be positive. Once you know you're making money, it's time to plug leaks and settle down at a solid ROI.

i think he might be right but we are goal oriented. just shoot for 500 games where your +ROI. something like 25% in the 20's is great.

Also, one sacrifices ROI for hourly rate when multitabling. Don't have a target ROI because you'll never know when you've actually hit it.

I believe The Yugoslavian said it best a few months ago: "Down that path lies madness."

A 30% ROI at the 22s is NOT attainable. Show me a guy with a 30% ROI over 2000 tournys, and Ill shove my foot up my ass.

Post an offer to bet $20,000 that it can't be done and see if anyone takes you up on it. If no one responds, just PM Curtains.

If we get 200 people to put in $100 each, do you think he'd relly stick his foot up his ass? I think that would totally be money well spent.

I just tried, and was able to make my foot *touch* my ass. Perhaps more flexibility/stretching would help. [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]
