Unibet Poker has some superb multi-table tournaments and you’re going to want to play as many as you can during 2021 because the site has launched its MTT Player of the Year promotion.

Head to the tournament lobby in the Unibet Poker client and find the eligible Low and high Leaderboard MTTs. Register for them and navigate your way into the top 17% of the entrants to earn leaderboard points. It really is that easy.

Once you reach the top 17% finishing places, you earn points based on the following formula:

1.5*SQRT(n)/SQRT(k), where n = number of players, k = your position

This advanced tournament article is meant for those players who are already familiar with playing tournament poker and specifically no limit MTT games. The concepts covered in this guide will refer to advanced terms and concepts like folding equity, position, image and implied value.

Monthly, Quarterly, and Yearly Leaderboards

There are three MTT Player of the Year leaderboards to get stuck into: Monthly, Quarterly, and Yearly.

Monthly leaderboards run from midnight on the first day of the month through to 11:59 p.m. CET on the last day of the month.

The quarterly leaderboards run from January to March, April to June, July to September, and October to December.

You’ll notice from the payout tables below that the various leaderboards are split into Low and High. Low tier tournament cost €1, €2, and €5 to enter, while buy-in of €10 and €25 are considered High.

Monthly MTT Leaderboard Payouts

Your 10 best results count towards the Monthly Leaderboard. The top three points earner win tournament tickets ranging from €25 to €200 while the top 25 finishers gain entry into a €150 Low Player of the Month and €350 High Player of the Month Showdown freerolls.

Topping the Monthly leaderboard also grants you a special Player of the Month avatar to display proudly at the tables.

Quarterly MTT Leaderboard Payouts

The Quarterly Leaderboards take your best 30 results into consideration. Again, the top three finishers walk away with tournament ticket with the top 25 finishers also netting freeroll entries. These freerolls are larger than their monthly counterparts, with the Low Player of the Quarter Showdown Freeroll having a €300 prize pool and the High Player of the Quarter Showdown Freeroll having €650 up for grabs.

Both winners have a special Player of the Quarter avatar, too.

Yearly Leaderboard Payouts

The end of the year seems a million miles away but it means you have plenty of time to log at least 100 results. Your top 100 results earn you points for the Yearly Leaderboard where the top 200 points earners gain entry to a couple of big freerolls.

The top 200 finishers on the Low leaderboard receive an entry to the €2,300 Low Player of the Year Showdown Freeroll. High players can play in a season-ending €5,000 High Player of the Year Showdown Freeroll.

Again, the winners of both Yearly Leaderboards receive a special avatar to display at the tables.

About MTT ROI (Return on Invesment)

Poker players measure their success in MTTs by ROI (Return on Investment). This is calculated by averaging your net MTT profit divided by your entry fees x 100 to give a percentage. For example, if you’ve played 10x$10 buy-in MTTs and made a total profit of $50, then your total ROI is (50/100)*100 = 50%.

To quickly calulate your or somebody else’s ROI you can use free software such as sharkscope.

What is a Good MTT ROI?

This is debatable because some poker players will be happier with a lower ROI than others.

Poker forums and their communities seem to suggest a 20% ROI is very good, whilst anything above 0% is good for new players.

Your ROI is pretty subjective to how many games you play. Poker tournaments contain lots of variance and you’ll need a big sample of 100+ MTTs to give an accurate figure. If you’re playing small MTTs such as the $3 KO 90-man events at Full Tilt Poker than you’ll need less than this to get a good sample, but for the major guaranteed events like the UB $200k GTD or Full Tilt Poker’s $10k Daily Dollar than you might even need 200+ games for a decent sample size. In either case there are plenty of forum threads and MTT players at Pocket Fives who you can ask if you’re unsure.

MTT ROI Stats:

• <0% Very Bad. You’re losing money in the long run and probably doing everything wrong.
• 0% Bad. Breaking even but still not getting paid for the effort you put in.
• 10% OK. This is ok. You’re making more money than 95% of everyone else in MTTs.
• 20%-30% Great. This is a very good ROI for MTTs. You’re probably in the top 97% of the field.
• 30 – 80% Pro’s. Professionals will aim for 40%+ ROI in MTTs. For example, Chris Moorman is the UK’s best online tournament player according to PocketFives 2008 rankings and earns around 36% ROI in tournaments.

How to Improve Your MTT ROI Significantly: One of the simplest ways of improving your ROI is by playing in tournaments with softer competition. Most of the scheduled tournaments at Carbon Poker with buy-ins below $30 contain very weak competition and even the most limited players can produce a good amount of ITM finishes.

ROI Isn’t an Exact Measure of Profitability:

ROI doesn’t paint a true picture of how much money you’re really making. For example, earning 30% ROI in a $40 MTT is much more profitable then earning 50% ROI in a $5 MTT. It’s important to find a balance between a good ROI and stake that suits your bankroll/ability.

In small SNGs, ITM is a very useful tool for judging how competent you are. For example, in a 9 person Sit n Go where the top 3 people get paid you’d naturally expect nothing less than 27% ITM. Anything less than this and you’d be losing money on average.

What is a Good ITM?

Most pros will have an 15 – 20% ITM. Personally I think anything above 10% is not bad going.

A lot of players will often play badly in the later stages of a tournament. Passive players in particular will might be able to make ITM finishes, but their conservative playing style will hinder their chances of reaching the final table.

In conclusion, getting a good ITM is good but there is much more work to do to establish a killer ROI and become a top player.
