    Not going to set the world alight, but at least it's something :)

    Keep it going, Pingu.

    I think you have managed to win this comp before, haven't you? Or are you still chasing a maiden victory?

    (27.35 - 5.50) / 5.50 x 100 = 397%

    Not good enough, but a nice little profit nonetheless :)

    Decent effort Mr Ballz, but not good enough for this week. Keep trying!

    Unfortunately not - I've missed out by a few % a couple of times, haven't got anywhere near for the last few weeks. At least I got an ROI this week which is an improvement on my recent results, lol

    BTW - Is there any chance you could get another Timed Tournament added between 22:35 and 23:40 for next week? Big gap there.

    Thanks for the free entry Rich.  Can't believe that I won it from the first tournament of the night.

    Congrats Steve- hope you can turn it into some hard cash in tonight's main event.

    Good luck!

    As for first tourney- yeah, I came 9th in that one I think. And never quite reached that giddy height again!

    That's massive, Smanik! Thanks for posting that, always a bit of fun seeing a huge ROI. On any week so far in the Orford Time Tourney Challenge that would have thrashed the competition. You've got to achieve it during 7pm to midnight on a Wednesday night though AND post it on here during that time.

    Good luck on Wednesday!

    PS- I managed 1226% a few weeks back (see P.3 of this thread). Yes, it's a brag post, and, for the avoidance of any doubt that I'm bragging, here is that post again in all it's glory! LOL!

    divided by the buy-in (£11)

    = 12.26

     multiplied by 100 to give a percentage

    ROI= 1226%

    Read it and weep!

    Yeah, tbh I think pretty much all my other ROIs have been under 500%, so I think you're doing well. You should definitely enter this challenge every Wed as I think you might lock down a main event seat most weeks which would be great extra value to your TT cashes.

    Imo the 1 hour ones are the best of the lot, enough play in them to be like normal MTTs but with all the excitement of a TT where you can see your prize money fluctuating as you go along, and going up whenever someone gets knocked out.

    As for my 1226%... Yeah, it rocks! LOL. I'll never pull that off again. I was absolutely murdering the field that day. Just glad I did it the once :-) See you Wednesday!

    Another week, another challenge.

    Read the opening post for all the details if you're completely in the dark as to what this is.

    Bottom line- you can win a Thursday night main event seat whilst playing timed tournaments tonight, simply by posting on this thread the biggest profit from any single game.

    We start at 7pm and I'll see you there!

    Good luck!

    Cracking start for me in the 7.05pm

    Chipleader at one point and finished 4th.

    My score doesn't count towards the challenge, but I like to see if I can compete with everyone else.

    RICHORFORD11075£16.62

    So ROI of 404%

    Beat that, everyone!

    The real score to beat of course currently is 0%!
