What do you *believe* the *Official* ITM and ROI thread

Eastbay, IMO, you've left one variable completely out. Your 7 digits. (or ten digits for that matter). How do we get a hold of you now?

I guess my sense of humor fell asleep, either that or I didn't get my Scuba decoder ring despite waiting 6-8 weeks for delivery. Do you mean I'm not posting as much?

hello, i am have been lurking here for a while now. i have only been playin for about 9 months and hooked already. i see the term roi everywhere in this forum but still dont know what it means and how to work my own out, please let the light dawn on my marble head and fill me in.

i 4-table and hit 27.5%

Return On Investment...each time you play...so a 20% ROI for a $55 buy-in event gives you an average of $11 profit, in the long run, for each tourney uou play.

ok, well, my thoughts as for the 4 tabling maxes. over 750 sngs i had a 19% roi 4 and 8 tabling at the 55 level, so i think that probably around 21% would be the straight up MAX.

as for 109s, 4 and 8 tabling, i have pulled such terrible numbers that 10% would be super great for me, but definitely not the max attainable. i would say it is somewhere around 18%, and it is definitely my goal to get there. holla

I hit the mid 44% ITM and 32% ROI for six tabling $11 and my stats were significantly better when I was 4 tabling.

Then why not move up? I am positive your roi would not decrease by half moving up to the 20 dollar level.

As for the other questions in this post I like the numbers Raptor gives for the 50s and 100s but I think that even playing 4 tables he slightly underestimates the max roi attainable for those levels, especially the 55's.

If you throw game selection in the mix you could do amazing things in terms of roi (but who cares about roi anyways?) roi doesn't pay any bills.
