ROI is short for "return on investment." This is a poker term that is used to measure the profitability of one's play in poker tournaments.

ROI is calculated as (100 * total profit/total buy-in). Thus, if one received a prize of $150 in a tournament with a buy-in of $100+$9, one's ROI is calculated as 100 * $41/$109= 37.61%.


ROI is used for tournaments though because tournaments always have a fixed buy-in in relation to the prize pool.
100 * 398/1600 = 24.88%, Overall i was given 1998 in prizes from the sngs for a 398 profit. Not 398 in prizes.
