citanul you know sngs aren't actually beatable. stop playing.

I actually did it a few ways, came up with a few different numbers, just wanted to see what others came up with.

I don't keep my poker winnings as my bankroll. I constantly withdraw money and don't keep track of my profits. A mistake I need to quit making, I know.

I don't rely a great deal on Poker Prophecy, but unfortunately right now it's all I have to gauge my %'s.

I just spent I dunno how long giving you a nice break down, then I go back to see you r getting your figures from poker profecy. U DICK!!!!

I'm sorry!!! I know Poker Prophecy is horrible, but I'm just trying to gauge my winnings and it is all I have to go by right now!

BTW, what program do you suggest I use? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

The problem with this is we don't know what "wins" means? I will assume you mean "in the money" (or ITM) finishes. How many of those were 3rds, 2nds and 1sts? Additionally, was this at a site where tournaments are 9 handed or 10 handed?

now some math with some assumptions, 10 handed and an even distribution of itm finishes

E(for entry fees): 89+110 = 199. 199x33=$5,467

A) 30 firsts = $4,500
B) 30 seconds = $2,700
C) 29 thirds = $1,740

total winnings = A+B+C = W (for winnings) or $8,940
total profit = W - E = P (for profits) or $3,473

I hope this helps and the math is right. It is late and I am drunk.

Yes, sorry, by 'wins' I mean 'in the money'.

Can someone give me a rough formula for figuring out my 'estimated' profit for this many games?

1st 50%, 2nd 30%, 3rd 20%

89 wins, but no 2nds or 3rds?

your situation is EXTREMELY easy to fix

d/l hood's sng tracker...it's free

have it import every tourney you've ever played on that computer and u'll have your roi...all of your hhs are stored on your computer's hard drive...if u used more than one computer, then u'll have to move those files over so all are on one hard drive...

the hand histories are found in c:\program files\skin name\hand history\screen name
