ROI stands for, itself, Return Over Investment.

So, your return i.e. profit, divided by your investment, then * 100 to get the %. In your first example, if we assume the profit is $1500 and not $2600, then $1500 / $1100 = 1.36 * 100 = 136%.

YOWSERS!

136% ROI!

LOL!

I can see why when you thought my numbers were real, you were quite skeptical... [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

So basically say that I start with $1100 bankroll.

I play some SNGs and I have $2600 - $1100 bankroll is $1500 return.

So you divide the 1500/1100 (bankroll) and then times it by 100 for the ROI percentage, correct?

man, i think youre stil confused.

from the FAQ:



ROI: Return on Investment – the average return a player earns on an investment of $1. (Total Prizes Won-Total Buyins paid)/(Total Buyins paid) Note: Total buyins includes the rake paid to the card room.


notice how this has nothing to do with your bankroll; it only includes total amount youve invested in sngs...

edit: didnt read tiger's post. guess he had me covered.

(Total Winnings)/(Total Spent) - 1

Or

(Total Winnings - Total Spent)/(Total Spent)

aka

Profit/Spent
