So if it's a profit of £62.17, that's a whopping ROI of 1130.4%

If you hadn't subtracted the buy-in already, it's an ROI of 1030.3%

In Response to Re: THE ORFORD TIMED TOURNEY CHALLENGE- BACK ON TONIGHT WEDNESDAY AUGUST 1ST- 7PM TILL MIDNIGHT : That's an enormous ROI, mate. Many. many congrats. 1030%! That is going to extraordinarily hard to beat this week. Keep an eye on this thread, I'll announce the winner at just after midnight. If no-one beats that score, then your name will automatically appear in the tournament lobby of tomorrow night's Sky Sports Bounty Hunter at 8pm. Good luck!

Ah. Not ideal. What weeknight are you around in the next 7 nights?

And just out of interest, was that £62.17 profit (i.e. after you'd deducted your buy-in), or £62.17 total prize?

Made a nice cash in the 15 minute tournament just gone.

Did pretty rubbish in these tonight but just cashed for £47.40 in the £11 10pm tourny. A ROI of 330.9%, not good enough to win but puts me in profit for the night on these

In Response to Re: THE ORFORD TIMED TOURNEY CHALLENGE- BACK ON TONIGHT WEDNESDAY AUGUST 1ST- 7PM TILL MIDNIGHT : I worked this out as 1243.4% or 1,143.4% - I'd subtracted the rake as this doesn't go into the prize fund so counted buyin as £5.00 but.... I suppose your way is technically correct.
Posted by Slykllist

I've never subtracted the rake for the calculations on anyone's profits across the whole challenge, Slykllist, so I think it would be unfair to start now.

Also, if it was 1243% then it would beat my website record of 1226% and I'm not having that! Lol. Although, if that was the case then I would have to recalculate my ROI without the rake so presume I would still be ahead!

He made a total earnings of £62.17 so a profit of £56.67 after u subtract £5.50 for the buy-in then after the calculation it a ROI of 1030% if u don't subtract the buy in it's 1130%

Yeah, I realise that now Rich after reading the rest of the thread hence me deleting my post.  I had worked it out previously for my Olympic thread as darkie6212 not only turned a VERY impressive ROI but also emulated Bradley Wiggins in winning a Gold medal for Team DYM Legends in the Cycling Time Trial..... Impressive stuff!

Ty, Adey. 1030% it is then.

Still pretty tidy, whichever way you look at it.

no sorry take 5.50 off that richard, next monday will prob be better if thats ok???

RICHORFORD

Good finish for me- 6th in the last game of the night

So that's an ROI of 318%!

Not bad at all, but i think we all know who's won it this week.

I'll just wait a couple more moments for any late stragglers and then post the official result.

So the winner tonight with a seriously impressive 1030% ROI is...

darkie6212

Well done mate. Now normally you'd be automatically entered into tomorrow night's Bounty Hunter, but since you genuinely didn't reaise this was the prize and you're not available then, I'll stick you in whatever the main event is on Monday night at 8.

Please note everyone, I'm not usually allowed to do this and I won't be slotting winners into tourneys of their choosing in the future because it becomes a bit of nightmare for the admin team!

I suspect the buy-in will be slightly less than tomorrow anyway, so darkie6212 has had to take a bit of a hit there in order to accomodate him.

Good luck in it though, mate and I hope you cash big on your freeroll. Look out in the tourney lobby on the day, your name should be in there.

Cheers to everyone else who played tonight and see you next Wednesday!

No worries- you're definitely in Monday's main. As soon as it is generated, your name will be added to it.

RICHORFORD

The challenge is back on, folks!

Big winner last week, can a much smaller score take it down this week though?

Check the opening post for all the details, but don't worry about doing the calculations. Either I'll do it or one of the regualar guys on the thread.

Just play the timed tourneys and post your results. Best result gets the free seat in tomorrow night's main event.

See you at 7 TONIGHT!!!!

Not my department Don, as I don't know the answer and I'm not the guy who decides what tourneys are on.

You're best off bringing that one up as a seperate thread on the forum and looking for an answer forom a SkyPoker head office bod.

There are £3.30 and £11 tourneys though, one is at 7.05pm and the other is at 10pm.

kirbsuk83

yup first time i have had a crack at the challenge ... timed events are great value for money and very easy to make a few quid here and there i will have a crack at a couple more through the evening :-)
