How to calculate DoN winrate/100?

I am trying to calculate the winrate/100 needed to be breakeven in Double or Nothing games.

Anyone knows? (I need a formula to calculate it for every stake precisely, I know it should be +55%)

Ex:
Buyin = 1.35 + 0.15
Games = 100

Thanks,

I wouldn’t use the BB/100 stats for SNG’s or tournaments at all. I always use the Return of investment (ROI) stat for this and then you see right away if you are a winning DON player or not.

Also, I don’t know any site that has DON’s with a buy-inn of $1,35+$0,15 and even if it’s existed we need to know our starting stack for this and because we will end with different stacks in the end and cashing with 1 chip or 10k makes no different the BB/100 isn’t reliable at all.

I expect this clears thinks up and if you have more questions don’t hesitate to ask them.

SDK1987,

Thanks for the answer, this buyin I get from Pokerstar with their (Fifty 50), the rules are different from the original DoN, but doesnt matter for me at moment.

I am building a poker room, so I want to create a DoN room with different stakes, I know that people always blame about rooms that have 15% fee for DoNs are unbeatable. So I'd like to create a formula that:

In 100 games playing DoN with $1.35+.015. How many games the player need to win to be breakeven?

After I found a formula, I can make some studies inside this. Got it now?

Thanks,
