View Full Version : The math behind calling or forcing an allin from a short stack.

I've started playing NL again at the $25 level. I notice there is quite a few short stack players with $10 or less. I would like to know if someone can point me to a piece of software or site that can help me with allin decisions against these players.

For example, if a player has a 20 VPIP and a 12 PFR couldn't you figure out what the top 12% of hands are and compare your hand to those in an allin situation to give yourself a starting point? So is there some software that tells me the top 12% of hands and what software will tell me how my hand does against those hands?

Thanks for any help in advance.

Try the software forum next time.

Keep in mind that someones PFR% isn't necessarily the same as their All-In range when short-stacking.

Thanks Fozzy. That's what I was looking for.
