Sit N Go Strategy - Interesting p5’s Post
November 17, 2007
Interesting Sit N Go Strategy post over on pocket 5’s to link to today, and one that works on various levels at that with a fascinating debate between 2 successful small-stakes SNG Pro grinders included.
You’ll see the numbers in the thread - where is gets interesting for me is the assumptions on which the decision is based, the pushing range of the big stack and the ‘fact’ that the small stack should be calling with any-2 (in my own experience at the 27’s this is not a definite - even though folding would be mathematically horrible for smally here enough people do it to make it only 75% to 80%).
The best thing of all about this debate is that there are various levels of thinking going on… on one side there are a bunch of maths-based calculations which assume each player understands ICM… on the other hand there is the line of thinking that says ‘if player x understands ICM he will assume I am pushing range XYZ, therefore I can actually push ABC etc etc’… great stuff.
