When using ICM or FGS, more often than not, as a middle/shorter stack when I adjust villain/s calling ranges, from nash to what are normally wider ranges. I always find myself having to shove very tight.
This makes sense of course but I was wondering if you think we should stand by our adjusted very tight shoving ranges as ICM nash ranges alone are normally pretty tight as is? I get that we dont want to rely entirely on ICM or FGS, what would be the biggest factor for you to make an exception?
I personally use FGS 1 for the most part. When ICM is very strong, STT, sattelites, would you recommend using regular ICM or FGS?

Hi Mark, thank you for you content, I am really liking it.
I was curious as to your reasoning for folding @ 33.20 where you had 98s in SB vs MP raise. What sort of hands are you calling/raising here?
Best of luck and thank you.

I think he just reverted the theme etc to that style, it can help with your computers performance a small bit or maybe he just prefers it.

Thanks Ben, could you please reply to "BCRUNGOOD" comment regarding the rake.
You incorrectly assumed a $2.14 pot was raked 36c instead of its actual 11c. (5min 35sec)
Knowing the actual rake now, would you still have played the same in this video? I don't feel comfortable trying to implement this style if its designed for games that the rake is 3 times higher without clarification on the rake.
Thanks for all your content!

Hi, Lucas. I understand if you don't get back to this as the video is more than a month old now.
I've been wondering ever since how you would go about these calculations if the tournament was a Rebuy format.
For example a $10(no rake) Rebuy, where your initial stack is say 3000t and the AddOn is 5000t. Often a mincash in these games is 4x+ the initial buyin. If for some reason I bought in and didnt Rebuy or AddOn in this instance, would I be more affected by ICM than other players who had re-bought and Added on when near or on the bubble?
Also i was wondering the same for Knockout MTTs, would your stack be worth the full price of the MTT or just the price of the funds that go to the prizepool?
Thank You.

I really liked the video.
My mind is finally at ease over these bubble shove/call spots.
Thank you.

Are you using the original version of snowie or is it the recently(sort of) released Snowie App for HEM?

Thanks Lucas!
I enjoy your videos.
At 8.20 you shoved 55 with 35bb~ on the button when the SB was a reg and had you covered and the BB had 12.5bb~.
I am all for shoving these pairs, I'm curious as to what you think about opening to your standard sizing and 4betting all in vs the SB if they chose to 3bet, and of course calling a BB reshove when SB folds.
I realise that a decent percent of the time we will go postflop with the BB.
If this is not a great spot for the aforementioned open/4bet could you please explain why and when the 4bet strategy would be better if at all.
Thank you.

Very nice video.
In those long stretches with no text on the screen, I want care bears jumping around, while you are playing the banjo.

@36:00 you jam KTs OTBB, surely this is the easiest complete of all time???

Nice video, keep them coming.

T-Rex @ 6:30 you 3B KQo vs UTG (19.5bb stack) are you calling off a jam here(if so why not just jam) or are you 3B bluffing poorly because of such good blockers?
I ask because if he jams a similar range as;
UTG 66.76% 65.14% 1.62% { 77+, AJs+, KQs, AQo+ }
BTN 33.24% 31.63% 1.62% { KQo }
We don't really have the price.
And if you are calling off is it combination of high RFI(UTG 29 I think,small sample tho) stat and getting close to the right odds?
