    If you win a tournament for 100 buyins when you're ROI is only 30%, then you're instantly 98.7 buyins above what ROI for that one tournament. If you then break even over the next 75 tournaments or so you're back to your true level of ROI. MTTs will have massive break even and losing stretches because the winnings of just one or two tournaments will counteract that.
    I suppose it is 29%

    It is basically the ratio - of without giving actual numbers - my total buy-ins = $1000 - then my total wins = $1290

    Yes I play very low buy-in tourneys. $1- to 5 .. occasionally $10 and very rarely bigger. Great majority is $2-$5
    The above ratio is for all the tourneys I played in 2012

    Can you give me more feedback on all the above points knowing this info?

    And - in prior years the RIO - would have been somewhat similar (the way i kept the stats does not allow me a quick calculation, numbers include some casino play etc. ) But I am pretty certain it would be apx in the same range. Perhaps this year it is somewhat lower the ROI. (I think I played more and a bit higher buy-ins, and overall $ gain a little lower)

    One thought I have about that (lower ROI) is that perhaps the quality of poker play on line is improving and because i have not invested time in reading and $ in HUD, I am losing ground...
