Hi. I'd really like to calculate my risk of going broke in Jackpots. Is anyone familiar with the math involved? Each win is worth 2.75 buy-ins (long-term average), I'm playing with a winrate of around 38% (I'd like to test several other values though) and a BRM of 100 buy-ins.

Those are probably all the variables necessary other than the standard deviation piece of the equation which I'm simply not math savvy enough to figure out. If anyone is familiar with doing this kind of math, I would love you forever if you could write me out a formula or at least explain the logic behind the equation I need.

Thanks. Sorry, but I'm new to these forums. Where's the math forum at?
