it all depends how many games you have played really but 27% is very good over a large sample size but over say 30 games it dosn't mean quite as much. however its much better than -27%

ROI is calculated like this example:

If the entry fee is = £1.10
If the winnings are =  £19.00

£19.00 minus £1.10 divided by £1.10 x 100 = 1827% ROI (Return on Investment)

On the other Hand if you didn't Cash it would look like this:

If the entry fee is Entry = £1.10
If the winnings are = £0.00

£00.00 minus £1.10 divided by £1.10 x 100 = (-100%) ROI (Return on Investment)
