    Results in CVCX

    Under the results section of the summary the %W/L does that mean the players advantage or does it mean the amount of hands you will win each hand? Just want to make this clear because I usually though the %W/L equate to the player's advantage over the house. Is that correct?

    It is your cumulative advantage or ROI.

    From the Help:

    %Win/Loss
    – Also called EV or IBA (Initial Bet Advantage.) This is the amount won or lost divided by the initial bet.

    The definition of ROI is rather encompassing, but I don't like to think of %Win/Loss as ROI.
    ROI is net profit / investment, so if you consider that you are re-investing your profits when you make consecutive bets, it is correct.
    But a 1.5% ROI, for instance, doesn't sound good, does it? I like to think that if I get to a table with $1,000, generate a total (initial) action of $10,000 and leave the table with $1,100, although I had a 1% Win/Loss or %IBA, I had in fact a 10% ROI.

    I hope I am making sense...

    I think most people that use the term ROI have a bit of variance to deal with as well.
