Extrapolated profit

Over the years, I've done a lot of number crunching on my poker data. Strangely enough, however, I've never thought to extrapolate what my profit (or loss) at the end of the year will be, based on my current profit (or loss) and how many days have elapsed so far. Until now, that is :-) It's a simple formula:

extrapolated_year_end_profit = current_profit * (number_of_days_in_the_year / number_of_days_elapsed_so_far)

Plugging in the current values, I get

$45,925 * (365 / 72) = $232,814

Note that although today is the 73rd day of the year, I haven't played poker yet (but will) :-)
