Understanding ROI and Yield in Betting

In the world of betting, your "Win Percentage" is a vanity metric. What actually matters is your Return on Investment (ROI). A bettor can win 60% of their games and still lose money if they are betting on heavy favorites.

How to Calculate ROI

If you have staked a total of $1,000 across 50 bets and your current profit is $50, your ROI is 5%. In the professional world, a long-term ROI of 3% to 5% is considered exceptional.

Yield vs. ROI

While often used interchangeably, "Yield" specifically refers to your profit relative to turnover (total amount bet), while ROI is often used to describe profit relative to your *starting* bankroll. Our dashboard focuses on Yield to give you the most accurate picture of your betting efficiency.
