Is this an ICM punt?

If you want to review your own bubble spots in tournaments this new video from Bencb is an excellent jumping off point for your own study.

Raise Your Edge founder Bencb takes a deeper look at the biggest spot he played on the bubble of a $10,300 event he played at GGPoker. The upside of winning is always less than the downside of losing when ICM is a factor and that goes double on the bubble. 

He reviews the spot where it is folded to him with AKo. He uses his own Pairrd app as well as specifically looking at the ICM considerations in Holdem Resources Calculator. He also looks at things like splitting between a min raising and shoving range when we are shallow in ICM-centric spots. 

We also look at what the calling ranges behind us should be and how that informs our decisions going foward. 

It isn't cheap to join Raise Your Edge, although their partner product Pairrd is much more affordable. However, even if you are on no budget, the RYE YouTube channel is a treasure trove of free poker advice. 

If you like the look of Pairrd, Barry Carter recently reviewed it for PokerStrategy.
