Sanity Check with Big Stack
So we have the big stack on the BTN. SB and BB are both short. BB is in 100% and SB is in "most of the time." We look down and see 56o. ICM is going to say +EV every time. Why is this? Here's a Bubble Trainer example(So I am big stack and two shorties have ~800):
Settings Hands Played 89 Correct Hands 82 (92%) Reset Stats Breakdown EV Preflop 40.67% EV Push 40.86% EV Fold 40.65% EV Diff 0.21% -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Correct Action: PUSH Your Action: FOLD Blinds: 400/800 2610 1601 851 813 (74%) 22+, A2+, K2+, Q2+, J2+, T3o+, T2s+, 95o+, 93s+, 86o+, 84s+, 75s+, 65s 826 (100%) 22+, A2+, K2+, Q2+, J2+, T2+, 92+, 82+, 72+, 62+, 52+, 42+, 32 802 12497 Copyright 2006 pregopoker.com. | Terms of Service |

Re: Sanity Check with Big Stack
Don't have poker stove here, but would be curious to see what it says about 65o against two random hands. Then think that you're getting 2:1 plus antes...

Re: Sanity Check with Big Stack
I tried to ICM it, but couldn't figure out your numbers. Basically any time that you are still going to be a big stack even if you lose, the numbers are going to tell you to push. The stacks of the blinds are so insignificant in comparison to yours.

Re: Sanity Check with Big Stack
Remember, Bubble Trainer is only taking into account one caller. So 74% of the time, SB will Call and BB will fold (leaving 76 behind) and your getting about ~3:1 heads up. The other 26% of the time SB will fold and BB will call and you'll be getting ~1.5:1.
In real life you'll get called by both and your chances to win a dramatically reduced, but according to bubble trainer BB is retarded and will fold 74% of the time. |

Indy, wtf can you give like an actual situation? I have no idea what all that gibberish is indicating in terms of an actual table setup.

There are a couple of medium stacks in there and I'm on the BTN with a huge stack. Say blinds are 400/800. Say I know that the BB will be all in if I push because he only has 875 behind. SB has 800 and has posted 400 so he's like >=75% to call if I push. WHy would the math tell me to push? I mean, intuitively. I mean, if SB had more chips I could see a push to preclude SB from stomping on BB but not when I know im getting called in 2 places. Dont make no kinda sense to me. Indy |

Re: Sanity Check with Big Stack
As previously stated. SNGPT does not calculate in overcalls. So if the SB calls, BB will fold according to SNGPT. This makes this calculation very incorrect.

Re: Sanity Check with Big Stack
So it's like 400/800 and it's like 4.5k/4.5k/9k/801/875? Something like that?
I dunno I doubt it's a push any two spot since it's 3 way soooo often. In fact, the chances of someone busting when you fold is like extremely close to 100% and I'd imagine ICM *loves* that. However, I think SB will somehow find a way to fold way too much here so I definitely would push a large range......I'm guessing like 70% of push hands? Meh, I don't really feel confident at all in that guess though to be honest. Maybe I'll do that in a minute or two. (the issue with sngpt obviously is it doesn't account for your folding equity or what happens when it's 3way...and these two things are so important here). Yugoslav |

Re: Sanity Check with Big Stack
Yah ur right Yugo. I guess I forgot how limited these ICM programs can be in certain situations. Any math u do will be greatly appreciated.
