Expected Value Analysis

Is it worth entering tournaments?

Let's do the math for a $10 Silver tournament:

Scenario 1: Average Player (50th percentile skill)

Assumptions:

• You finish top 4: 10% of the time

• You place 5-20: 30% of the time

• You bust early: 60% of the time

Expected value per tournament:

• (10% × $450) + (0%) = $45 per 10 tournaments

• Cost: 10 × $10 = $100

• Net: -$55 over 10 tournaments

• EV: -$5.50 per tournament

Verdict: Don't play if you're average.

Scenario 2: Good Player (Top 20% skill)

Assumptions:

• Top 4 finish: 25% of time

• Top 10 finish: 40% of time

• Bust: 35% of time

Expected value:

• (25% × $450) + (40% × $0) = $112.50 per tournament

• Cost: $10

• Net: +$102.50 per tournament

Verdict: Profitable if you're good.

Scenario 3: Elite Player (Top 5% skill)

Assumptions:

• 1st place: 15% of time ($450)

• 2nd-3rd: 30% of time ($180 avg)

• 4th-10th: 35% of time ($0)

• Bust: 20% of time

Expected value:

• (15% × $450) + (30% × $180) = $121.50 per tournament

• Cost: $10

• Net: +$111.50 per tournament

If you play 10 tournaments/week:
