This Sunday we will hold a private tournament on PokerStars planned for 20:00 CET. The buy-in will be $5.50 and you can sign-up for it here: BOD Special: Community Tournament!

Instead of the stakes that we usually give away for tournaments - this week we will be shipping the buy-ins for the tournament - so those lucky enough to win stakes can play for free.

In this thread I will be giving 3 stakes to those players who demonstrate the most ICM skills! That means those players who can screenshot the best score over the period of 100 hands on our ICM trainer will get the 'stakes'.

To practice ICM check out the ICM trainer light: http://www.pokerstrategy.com/software/8/

To read about ICM check out our strategy articles:

Independent Chip Model (ICM)
Examples and explanations for ICM

To download the ICM trainer and to do your 100 hands go here: http://www.pokerstrategy.com/software/7/

Have fun learning about ICM and Tournament play and good luck!

Best regards
SoyCD

I bet you can do that easily.. And learning ICM will help you a lot especially if you are playing SNGs at least from time to time...

Hey Guys,

The deadline is Sunday 12:00

CET is Central European Time so Austria / Germany / Italy / Netherland / Spain etc time.

And yes you can practice as much as you want and post better scores later

Unbelivable i am always around 90% ♦ Looks like i need to check out this ICM a bit more since i disagree with some of his pushes And i also that one i usually don't fold:
5 players:
one push second call and you should call with only QQ+. I usually don't fold even AKo/s which i had in this situation Depends how TAG players were before with pushing/calling pushes Anyway i still have time to improve and get to 100%

Gah I should have made it even harder ♦

Since 3 people have already gotten 100% correct I guess I have to stop the promotion and say jmackenzie, veriz and LuborC have won the 3 buy-ins to the tournament. Register here with your Stars nick: BOD Special: Community Tournament!

Next time I'll try to make it a bit longer living.

Oh ya and I'll immediately try to think of a new promotion. So stay tuned.

Best regards,

Good idea. Playing around with ranges and equities is always helpful for your game.
