Bubble Factor Calculator I took that ICM Calculator that I wrote the other day and extended it to include a calculator for bubble factor found in Kill Everyone. For those who are not familiar it is a measure of how much it hurts to lose chips to another player in your tournament, specifically based on stack sizes. Assuming we have 3 variables containing the ICM calculated equit ... <a href="http://www.deucescracked.com/blogs/diab0lic/67851-Bubble-Factor-Calculator-New-Watch-">(continued)</a>
I am back up in northern Canada, Yellowknife NT to be specific and working for the summer as a systems analyst again. To give a rough update on life this will be the first summer in my adult life, actually the first extended period of time, in which I am single. I’ve made some commitments to focus on style, fitness, skills and socializing this summer. I’ve been dressing nicely every day, jo ... <a href="http://www.deucescracked.com/blogs/diab0lic/67721-Writing-an-ICM-Calculator">(continued)</a>
I would just like to share an ICM Calculator for 4-handed play made in Microsoft Excel. You only need to type the tournament payout structure and the stack sizes and the spreadsheet will calculate the chances for finishing 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th and the most important your equity. Please let me know if you see something that isn’t correct. Microsoft Office 2007 or better is required. Click here to download
Here is today’s result from the SNG Wizard Quiz : Today’s result : 47/50 ( 94% ) Total : 188/200 ( 94% ) I’m starting to think it wasn’t a great idea to mix the $20+$2 with the $10+$1 games, the 10s went pretty well today but the 20s were a disaster. I honestly can’t see where is the difference between the two levels apart from the buy-in. I’ll continue mixing both buy-ins for the next 2 days and then make a decision to drop it or to continue.
I missed yesterdays session of SNG Wizard Quiz due to lack of time but today did another 50 hands session, here are the results : Today’s result : 50/50 ( 100% ) Total : 141/150 ( 94% ) I’m starting to feel that’s too easy but I’ll continue for a couple of weeks more till deciding to improve different aspects of my game. I’ve started to mix some $20+$2 SNGs with the $10+$1 today an ... <a href="http://www.deucescracked.com/blogs/rpadrela/17761-SNG-Wiz-Quiz-1-April">(continued)</a>

Following the post on Tournament Poker forum by Delliks regarding the SNG QUIZ CLUB I decided to start using the SNG Wizard Quiz mode to improve my bubble play. Obviously I haven’t decided this in a matter of a second, this is something that’s been in my head for the last months and the reason is very simple : If you look carefully at the number of bubble finishes you’ll unde ... <a href="http://www.deucescracked.com/blogs/rpadrela/17251-Improving-SNG-bubble-play">(continued)</a>
I used to play a lot of SnGs, and I did reasonably well from them. However, despite getting a good feel for “good†and “bad†plays, I was never able to perform really solid quantitative analysis at the table (especially as I would often be 20-tabling). Most people consider ICM to be the gold-standard of small-field tournament equity models, and for the most part it is. You can analyse ... <a href="http://www.deucescracked.com/blogs/jjd323/11611-Equitable-Chip-Model">(continued)</a>
