Title: ROR? how to use it
Post by: mex on February 21, 2006, 04:22:49 PM
I got hold of avery good spread sheet for recording games, ithink it was developed from 2+2 or somewhere?

I can under stand most of it but there is a ROR setting

Is this rate of ruin?
if i change % it gives me a bankroll figure but i don't really get it any ideas?

there is a ROI figure, so i wouldn't think a ror would be return but if i put % of say 20% it adjusts bankroll.ill try a screen grab

Risk of ruin?

If you choose a lower number does bankroll increase?

if i increase % of ror then bankroll decreases so thats why i think its to do with ruin.

how do i use it?

I can't post it as it is a rar file on my desktop someone msn'd it to me. I can pass rar file if people really do want it.

I think Bongo is right, it sounds very much like Risk of Ruin.

Essentially, even if you are a winning player, standard deviation (which is the difference between expected outcome based on probablilites and the actual outcome) may mean that you will lose all your money before you are able to play for long enough to reduce the standard deviation (ie when luck 'evens out').

To have a ROR of 5%, you need a bigger bankroll than if you are willing to accept a ROR of 10%
