[Closed] ICM Trainer Light push

it's about how much everybody else have, they have to call you very tight because you can bust them out.

I don't think they have to call me very tight here.
SB has only 4BB so he would call me with a lot of hands.

You actually raised another good question here:

Lets say I have twice more chips than anybody else with 5 players in total.
Do I loosen up my game to put pressure on them
Do I tighten a little bit waiting for a good hand (since I am chip leader I can wait a bit)??

in the final table of WSOP, Moon put all in with QJs a few hours ago in the head up with Cada

there is already 600 in the pot(even more with antes) and u risk 2400 the most to win it.
If someone calls u have atleast 37-40% to win against their calling ranges..
(0.37 * 2400 = ~1100) so if u dont get called more than 46%(1300/600) u are breakeven, and u will never get called that often.. and the rarer u get called the more its +EV

I think everyone will say you have to put presure on them.
In an example I don't think that they call you light because everyone waits when the shortie busts. just my opinion.

Heads up I would agree.

But when the first 3 get money and 5 players are still at the table I wouldnt do it if I was chip leader eventhough the ICM says so.

Am I wrong with my thinking?

sorry crossed posts.

Kind of make sense what you are saying Genetals. Also I like this mathematical way of thinking...

So basically I have to put pressure by loosen up a bit my game when I am big chip leader is that correct?
