For a winning DYM player, what kind of ROI would be classed as acceptable?
I have seen lots of different % shared around, its tough to know what is good and what isn't
Comments
I guess what I mean is, what would be acceptable to a good player and what would the top performing guys be getting.
I am 32% on £2.25, 9.8% on £3.30 and 12.5% overall.
That said it is over a tiny sample. I guess from your answer originally you would think this is unsustainable and as thus, I need to be prepared to lose a fair few at some point
I genuinally didn't know how it would compare (obv with a bigger sample size) to good winning players.
Any +ROI with 10% Rake would be pretty decent !
If you are rolled for £3.30s stop playing £2.25s altogether.
5% ROI @ £3 games = 15p profit per game. Soul destroying. haha.
I agree with dev, 'book the win' and go play something else
probably wont stop 3.30's yet, im still enjoying em
I wont ever be making those sorts of grinding amounts.
To give you an idea of my schedule, I normally have 4 sites running at once, playing 1 or 2 tables on each.
For instance tonight:
sky - 1/2 dym tables
site b - 1 table an hour, just freerolls taking advantage of a promotion ($56 up this month on em)
site c - 1 cash table, 5/10c just to keep the BR heading upwards and stay on a leaderboard
site d - freerolls, brand new site so taking advantage of all the fish wasting no deposit bonus
site e - completing a challenge.
I wont have them all at the front though, for instance I will have a cash game at front that will sit out on on bubble of dym, freerolls I will just play shove/fold ABC poker till nearing the money etc etc.
The dym is kinda more of a challenge to see how good a ROI I can get, also to grind a decent amount and then withdraw my original deposit
I have played 16 sites this year and am in profit on 15 of them. Funnily enough sky is the one I am not, I deposited £60 a short while ago (after not playing here proper/at all for a decent amount of time). My balance is currently £50 but I had some terrible MTT results and a major horrific tilt a few days ago in which I lost £40 here, $50 and $30 on two other sites. Other two sites are back to a + balance after those two tilt days and sky will be very shortly indeed (helped by the premiership promotion dammit!).
Anyhow, this isn't about my BR.
I am talking about a VERY tiny sample (100 games). I wouldn't consider my ROI as what I earning until probably way over 1k games to be honest. And what I am at now wasn't meant to come across as any kind of boast, I hope it didn't read like that.
I genuinally wanted to know what a good ROI to aim for was.
* I don't know why sharkscope says what it does but I keep very detailed records and am not worried at all. There are respected people on here who can verify stuff etc.
* My sample is tiny (100 games). This wasn't meant to be a 'look at me and my ROI, look how great I am'. I hope it didn't read like that. I genuinally wanted to know what a good target would be for, over say 5k games.
How to work out your poker ROI.
You work out your return on investment in poker just as you would work out ROI in any other field.
Divide your profit by your total investment, then multiply that number by 100 to get the ROI percentage.
