Wow. Did you really overcome the hand ranking and overcall limitations you mentioned a few months ago? If so, kudos, that's quite an accomplishment.

No problems with hand rankings, but overcalls are still ignored. I have studied the overcall problem and it only has a minor effect, especially for an M of 4+.
I can understand the frustration with Amazon. They've sold out 3 times. This last time after they announced immediate availability they sold out in 12 hours. I guess that's good and bad news.
As far as an example, here's the equilibrium solution for pushing with an M of 6, with no antes:

For those nit-picky game theorists, this
does consider mixed strategies and these are the hands that are pushed at least 50% of the time.
Kill Everyone lists out the solutions for the other stack sizes and also does it with and without antes for comparison. I also list what the equilibrium calling ranges are as well for each case. And... there is some nice discussion about it including some shortcuts for helping you memorize approximate solutions for use at the table.
Hope that's enough of a teaser. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
