I have the same problem understanding those numbers above .
But sawing the profit in the end i must admit that you've done a GG.
Keep it going mate and see you on the tables.

Return on investment. 100 16 turbos was a total of 1600. I had 24% of my investment returned(398 dollars).

No, i still have my summer job though its only part time and i can make a lot more playing poker, but my dad doesn't want me to quit. He says jobs build character and he dislikes me playing poker as it is.

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.
