hey,

ICM is a term that I hear a lot. Can someone explain in laymen`s terms what does it mean and where it is applicable?
Thanks.

Hello faceppok

I recommend that you read these 4 articles first:
Chip Value (1): The Principle of Diminishing Chip Value
Chip Value (2): The Fundamentals of the Independent Chip Model (ICM)
Chip Value (3): Application of the ICM
Chip Value (4): The Risk Premium Concept
Than you know already something about the Independent Chip Model (ICM).

I use ICM only at the last 2 tables and the finale table of a normal tournament.
Beware that satellites are a lot more difficult with the ICM factor there. Than you get sometimes spots you need to fold AA if you can fold ITM (in to money) to win a seat.

If you have more questions about ICM don’t hesitate to ask it.

Cheers,
