There was a Card Player article where they tried to calculate his life ROI for everything from the 80s to 2006 or something, but I'm way too lazy to look for it. It was good, but not rediculous, iirc, like ~100%. I don't know anything about his online results. As for cash games, anecdotal evidence (Green Plastic I believe once said he is up huge on him on UB) suggests he is down, but no one (except maybe PH himself) has ever claimed that he is a strong cash player.

100% ROI lifetime is "good"? Wow. I guess he has just been running good in such a small sample size of 20 years at the WSOP....

So far in WPT stats--- entered 60 events= $836,489 in cashes for about $13,941 per event. SOme of the events are $5000 enteries and some are >10k so I will crunch some numbers for his WPT ROI soon. Becuase I know if he is only even for the WPT it will prove what a donktard he is to you people.....

Idiot players can't even spell ROI.

Very few are $5K and they were only played for the first seasons. Then you have the 25K which has been played every year and the 15K which I'm not sure if it was a 10K and was moved to 15K or it's been a 15K all the time. BTW, you can count ETPs too like monte carlo millions, etc.
