ROI Simulator / Analyzer - Free Software!

[suited_ace]

OK, until eastbay puts it at his site, I made an FTP server here at home.

You can download the file here.

I tried running the program and it said "failed to initialize properly (0xc0000135). Click OK to terminate the applicaiton'

Anyone else getting this error?

It does require the .NET Framework version 1.1 I believe... If anyone with .NET installed has this problem then let me know.

Oh, sorry.. I'm not on my home computer. Thanks for the program, looks great.

Nice work. Any chance you could turn this into a web app? I think it would by far get the most use this way.

Also, it would be cool to see probabilities associated with OOTM streaks - something people are always whin... discussing.

Thanks, I can definately add ITM and OTM streaks to this very easily - I'll do it tonight or tomorrow if I can find an hour of peace and quiet...

I wrote it in C# so I could make this an ASP.NET app with a minimal amount of work - only problem would be finding someone to host it since they'd need to be running IIS, have the framework installed etc. If there are any volunteers then I'll do it.

I'd be happy to host it at sitngo-analyzer.com if that works for you.

Sounds great - PM your e-mail and I'll send you the zip file. It is only about 10 KB.

Thanks,

Nice.

Downloaded it and it seems to work. Not sure I understand the second column. Could somebody again explain what it is?

thanks.

The second column represents the biggest drop in buy-ins. To use an example, let's say you are playing $20+$2's. After 900 SNG's you are up $2200 (or 100 buyins). You then lose $1100 over your next 100 SNG's. By losing $1100 you dropped 50 buy-ins from your peak of +$2200. Buy-In drop measure the biggest difference between a peak and a valley in your bank roll.

The second column shows how big variances are expected to be even if you are a top player. A 20% ROI player can expect to have a 22 buy-in drop over 1000 SNG's. A 5% ROI player can expect a 40 buy-in drop...

It looks good, but please, change the title to Predictor, as that's how it's spelt [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

This is really cool, thanks for taking the time and effort to create this.

[img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] I noticed this last night! I'm going to change the title to something else all together because ROIPredictor isn't even accurate... A couple more minor things I need to do include:

* the first grid totals up to 100.1%
* clicking on the column headers sorts but not properly (2.8% sorts as greater than 12.8% because the 2 > 1)
* allow for < 10% rake (i.e. $200+$15)

If anyone has any other suggestions then let me know.
