In Response to Re: icm question : God bless little Matt Bates for having the ability to think for himself. ICM is vital to understand, but it needs using with great care, as there is a LOT more to this subject than pure maths. Posted by Tikay10
In Response to Re: icm question : cheers m8, why would you fold though becuase you think you are behind or because of icm? when a fish 3bet jams 44 bigs i think JJ is ahead every day of the week. Posted by THEROCK573
ICM. Hard to say though as it depends on your own read on the fish. More than 1 kind of fish, but how wide do you actually perceive his range is? Horrible calling and finding out you have a Flip. Would he actually have the confidence to isolate with hands like 66/a10?
Do players really use ICM during online tournament play? Is there enough time to do the calculations? Posted by NoseyBonk
You don't make the calcs in play but you just need an awareness of certain aspects of ICM. EG, if someone has say 2bb on a ft its really bad for you to go out next. As part of post game analysis you should look at whether you made any mistakes from an ICM perspective.
