Hi. You should be able to load multiple hands if you are using the load histories button.

However, it is not designed to support loading hands using keyboard input (or enter key). You can either paste text in it or you can open a file with text of hand histories.

So for example you can prepare a txt file in notepad with as many hands as needed, and then load it to ICMIZER.

As for pokertracker, you should be able to copy multiple hands to clipboard from there if you select multiple hands and then right click on them, I believe there is an option in the context menu "copy hands".

Hi. there is no such thing as "kill frequency" which is used during the calculation. Even standard ICM model doesn't work like that, it just calculates the probability of finishing the tournament at the specific position. So when we are talking about MTT mode we calculate probabilities for small stacks to finish on at all possible positions in the tournament. Then we multiply a payout for specific position and the probability to finish at this position, sum them up and get the Expected Value of small stack (thats how expected value works in math).

I recommend this article to better understand how ICM works (both in MTT and in the final table mode) http://www.icmpoker.com/en/blog/poke...-is-icm-poker/.

If your opponents aren't ICM sensitive, you need to adjust opponent ranges away from Nash when you review hand histories in order to find a winning poker strategy against them.

I feel that I didn't express myself very well, I know how ICM works. What I meant is that I just can adjust the ranges of my table. Simultaneously Hands are being played on other tables, but because of your answer I think I can assume the software only takes into account the stacksizes.

Ah, yes. You're correct, there is no play happening on the other tables under the hood, we just take the stacks into consideration.

We plan to add support for FGS model combined with the MTT mode very soon too.

Hi icmizer

I bought icmizer pro some weeks ago and i want to count you my experience.

The software fulfil the expectations. Before i used icmizer 2 pro, i knew what kind of tools i was going to find in the software. This mean the information about the product is clear and right.

I have been using sng coach and i have enjoyed it, however i have some advices for the tool.

For Fifty 50 10 max turbo: while in other games of sng coach you can select the position of the hero in all the number of players, in fifty 50 you have only this option in 6 players. it reduces the option of answering quizes depending of the position of hero.

Also in fifty 50 there is a huge mistake in the blinds of 9 and 8 players. there are quizes where the blinds are 500-250 or 400-200 when in the reality the blinds are 40-80 or 50-100 as maximum. In 6 players, there are quizes where blinds arrive until 400-800 when in the reality the blinds go until 600-300.

For Mtt: I have seen that the quizes of mtt are for final tables, exactly when there are 6 players in game, nevertheless i think the middle part of the tournament and the bubble is equal or most important that the final table because most of the times we do not reach the last table.

i accept corrections of my written, i am improving my english.

Hi,

Just a couple of questions about saving / exporting study sessions.

I am basically looking for a piece of software which i can compare chipEV spots and then quickly reload them to tweak parts of the variables (ranges, hands, players, position)

I see that you can import from a single pasted hand history or load up a full HH file and move through it. (This is fine if taking a direct HH played)

What my question is, if i was to make up mock situations (one which do not come from hand histories) to say for example, find out how shoves compare from different positions, say early position shoves. (vs many differing variables, their stack, ranges, my hand, my stack etc etc)

Sweet i do this, play around with the spot, learn some stuff, great.

Now say i want to do the same analysis for a late position spot, i do the same. I input all the different stacks, ranges, over call ranges etc. Sweet.

I now have a new idea and want to test the original Early position shove spot, but now i have no access back to the original spot (other than maybe a screen shot) but a screen shot isnt live and cant tweak small factors based on my new idea.

Now here is the problem, i have to manually do this whole process again (how many players, stacks, ranges, ranges within ranges, my hand etc etc)

Is there an export feature (So i can export to a HH file which i can load again?)

Is there a save function? so i can save the spot i am working on for later, so i can change around variables and not have to worry about starting whole spot over by scratch?

I see it saves the last instance when the program crashes, so it leaves off where you started, is there a way to make this a save function or export to HH so can quickly load many different "mock spots".

I can see one way around is to make up hand history files as a base (made up ones) then load them in, but this just seems again like a lot of manual labour as there is no save function for the instance or spot created in icmizer.

I can see the power of being able to view your own hand histories, but a lot of poker study can be pushed forward by making spots up basically and then playing around then comparing these to other spots, or in general your strategy and what you want from it.

If there is no function, is it likely to be implemented? If not is there another program similar which allows saving of spots to come back to.

Hi. Thank you for kind words about ICMIZER & SNG Coach.

Regarding MTT quizzes: we have some final table quizzes and a chip EV quiz which can be used in the early & early-middle stage of MTT tournament.

Unfortunately, we cannot offer an SNG Coach for the medium-late situation in MTT at this point.

Regarding the situation with the unreasonable level of blinds in some questions. We are aware of this problem and plan to fix it in some of the upcoming updates later this year.

The position selector for 7+ players is coming later this year.

Development of commercial software isn't a fast process, and the updates are often taking much longer time to implement than can be expected. However, we are working very hard and there should be big updates already this Summer.

Hi.
We do have the save result feature. To use it you can hit the Calculate, and there press blue share this result button. You will get a link which will open the situation exactly as you had it.

However at this point link can only be opened in the web version of ICMIZER, so it can be done in Internet Explorer. We plan to add ability to open links from the downloadable client very soon.

Hi Q.

Thanks for the reply, this is awesome news to hear.

Had a small suspicion I could use the share feature for it, but thought it would be more obvious as an option as the save feature.

But that is a perfect work around for now until the program version of Icmizer 2 comes out with something similar as a feature.

Cheers.
Nick

does this software have training software for double or nothing sit and goes? (preferably 6max). If not is there anything in this software that will help with DON games that a simple free nash calculator wont help with?

Hi.
Yes, we have support for 6 max DoNs.
For example, you can find them in Bovada (now its Ignition) section here:
http://www.icmpoker.com/quiz/#_Bovada

We also have PartyPoker 6 max DoNs.

so basically its just designed to do one hand at a time to analyze your ICM decisions? Its not like you can load up 50 sngs you played worth of HH and the software goes through the HH and tells you your ICM mistakes?

hi, icmizer, i have followed using the software and i have had good results in the tables. Thank you.

when are we going to use the sng coach in our tablets?

Hi. You can load entire tournament and go hand by hand to find the perfect plays & correct possible mistakes.
You cannot load more than one tournament at the moment.

Hi. You're welcome.
What do you mean by use SNG Coach in "our tables"?

I assume it's "tablet" as in iPad, etc.

Exactly, when are we going to use sng coach in our smartphones?

Hi. The beta is running already, and the public release should be soon, we are finishing some final steps which are required to make it a paid product.

You can sign up to it here: http://www.icmpoker.com/sngcoachmpromo/
Note that in order to access beta version of mobile SNG Coach you need to have an active ICMIZER 2 PRO subscription.

ICMIZER/ Silverlight Seem to be using a extremely large amount of CPU on my MacBook Air

Anyone else experiencing this?

poker39618

Hi. ICMIZER's Silverlight client for Mac is using the same code & logic as its Windows Silverlight version.
If it is working but very slowly it probably means that either your MacBook Air is slow or that Mac version has bigger requirements than the Windows version because ICMIZER client runs on reasonably slow Windows notebooks from my experience.

I am new to ICM studying and recently subscribed. So if I load a hand where I raise, BB shoves and it has my call %. Why does it set my open range to "any two". Does the actual range not have an effect on the calculation?

Hi famous5ives.
Yes, our opening range does have an effect. There is a description regarding this current behavior, it is temporary until we release the new version with full support for a custom opening range for hero in this situation.
We are still the Beta mode of Nash equilibrium calculations in situations with raises. Once we finish everything and it is not in beta anymore there will be no need to lock this range at 100%.
We plan to release the update later this summer, but there are no exact dates yet and things can change, it is going to be a big complex update for the calculation engine.

Hi Q,
I was playing the Friday Freezout in crown Melbourne which is a small stakes $175 buy in with 10k stating stack. Rake $35. Total chips 1.53m, Average 69k
153 entrants with 18 paid.
Blinds 1500/3000 with 300 ante
Down to 22 players with about 4 or 5 stacks shorter than me and every1 who is shorter on all tables including mine has at least 8bb.
English weak passive player limps in the lowjack 7 handed with about 56k. Straight away put him on a low-med pair or weak suited A.
I am in the cutoff with A9s and shove for just over 46k.
Firstly I can't work out how to use ICMIZER so not sure if I should push or fold consider the money bubble. /i know his call is bad considering the bubble and my shoving range.
Any advice etc would be greatly appreciated.
Can I use ICMIZER2 for live and if I can I will buy the ProVersion or whatever it's called for sure. Looking to know if I should of folded or what my shoving range is. Sorry for the long rant
