ROI

Created by JKDS on July 22, 2009

Definition

Return on Investment. A statistic that is usually only used when describing success/failure rates in tournaments, and is calculated through a tracking program, such as poker tracker or hold em manager or websites such as sharkscope. You can do this calculation yourself by taking your (Prize – Buyin) / Buyin. If you played 2 $50 tournaments, and won $250, you would take ($250 – $100) / $100 or an ROI of 150%.

Example

I\'ve played 100 MTTs this week with an average ROI of 5%.
