anyone have stats on coin-in vs. bankroll?

#1

I'm looking for risk-of-ruin and other stats for coin-in relative to
bankroll.

E.g. 5000 unit bankroll (each game costs 5 units), what is the risk-
of-ruin for 30 hours of play at 600 hands per hour? Has someone run
these stats and graphed over the risk-of-ruin % and coin-in over time?

I'd love to see a java applet where you input your game, EV, and
starting bankroll and then get a graph of expected bankroll and stdev
over time, along with risk-of-ruin.

I'm not a stat wiz so hope I didn't confuse you with my question.

I have abandoned Risk of Ruin tables and calculations and prefer to use the
Tom Ski index, which really incorporates
ROR principles. Go to this site, download the binary, and plug in numbers to
compare your bankroll with any VP game.

A fun Java ROR calculator can be found at the Jeff Lotspiech's site

Not necessary to go to another site for the Tomski Tool, as our vpFREE
administrator has his own link to it right here on our own site at
