Im new to Sitngo Wizard , what Im doing wrong ( or Wiz ) ? :

In the first example you have the minimum edge set too high and the second is just because shoving AJo with a 10BB stack into 8 people isn't that great (again the minimum edge is far too high and that's why it's telling you {KK+} only).

Hey,

I play on a Mac but I want to be able to boot into windows and examine my hand histories after a session. Is there anything that I can do to my Pokerstars hand histories to make them 'readable' by SNGwiz?

Thanks in advance,

TT

Send me a hand history and I will investigate.

Has anyone else had trouble importing hand histories since that Full Tilt update?

why same call and push range let's say for example top 40% contains different hands? If i must push top 40 i have to push 22+ A2+ K3+ K2s+ Q8+ Q7s+ JT J9s+T9s 98s while if i have to call top 40 hand ranges includes these different hands: 22+,A2o+,K3o+,Q9o+,JTo,A2s+,K2s+,Q5s+,J8s+,T9s

They are readable by SNG Wiz, they are a cross-platform, simple text file. I have a mac. And use Windows through Boot Camp. What I did was get Macdrive for Windows, it allows you to access your Mac partition while in the Windows environment. Once you have that program it mounts your Mac partition as a drive and you can direct SNG Wiz to the proper folder.

Another option I suppose is to keep your hand histories on an external drive and format the drive to a cross platform compatibility.

edit: or you can just play poker in Windows. I love mac and still play poker with the mac, but it's getting increasingly annoying. The only good HUD out there is Poker Co-pilot, but it falls very short compared to HEM and PT. And in Windows people have created all kinds of cool scripts to make poker playing easier.

Did you send me a hand history that you are having trouble importing?

Please read this FAQ.

I'm demoing SNG Wizard and want to train for hyper-turbo satellites. What SNG settings should I use?

SNG Wizard doesn't have a hyper-turbo so I've been using the DoN profile since the hyper-turbos have a flat payout structure (tickets to the next tournament).

I've decided to get serious about learning and improving and I realize I can't do this without sngwiz, but I play on a mac. Does anyone know if I can play on the mac software, save the hh's on the mac side, but have access to those hh's if i dual boot windows using boot camp, and run sngwiz on that side?

Anyone out there doing this?

If you cannot find a tournament structure that matches a hyper-turbo, you can create a structure yourself. See "User defined tournament structures" in the help for details.

Do not use a payout structure that is close, but different. The calculations are only valid if you have the correct payout structure.

I do not know the details, but I do know that several Mac users are running the Wizard on Windows emulators like Boot Camp.

The payouts of the hyper-turbo satellites are tickets to the next tournament. These tickets can be refunded for a fixed amount of tournament dollars (e.g. T$ 11). Whether the hyper-turbo pays 1/2 of the field or 1/3 of the field is not particularly relevant though, right? Just the fact that the payout structure is flat and I'm a certain distance from the bubble?

Of course I can give the manual structure thingie a try too.

The payout structure is relevant. If the tournament gives 2 tickets to the next tournament, you should have 2 payouts of 50%. If it gives 3 tickets, you should 3 payouts of 33%.

OK, thanks.

The software will say I made the wrong decision, but I don't understand why. Where do I go to find out why what I did was wrong? I know it's -Ev but why is it -Ev?

I am trying to work on my calling ranges in DoNs late game, and every single thing I try in the quiz says to adjust it its too specific. I have widened it so much to be only calling in the BB and that still says its too specific.

I have no idea how to get this set up to help me.

How do you do this? Do U have 2 computers? how is it possible for you to repeat the sitiuation so quickly in Sng Wiz?

how do you use SNG Wiz? Or better what is your suggestion how to use sng wiz as a beginner? Atm I just use the quiz mode.

i posted this in the sitngowiz support forums, hopefully i'll get a reply soon. Was wondering if anyone else here has had the same problem with the new upgrade:

I'm working on bbl situations in "Analyze a new game" and it works fine until I pick the blind levels at 300/600 or higher on ftp 9 mans.
I get the following prompt message: "Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection. Parameter name: index."

I've restarted it, and now I guess i will try reinstalling.

I learned one thing a bit ago and that is to never get the update first.

I am not able to reproduce the problem. I replied to your post in the sngwiz.com forums with further instructions.

thanks works like a charm!

hey guys, just got sng wiz for the first time and im tinkering around with it. one thing im a little confused about is how to figure out what my calling range vs a push is. here is a sample hand just to illustrate (yes i know A9s is an easy call, thats not my question).

when i look at this in wiz it suggests i 'push' 60.5% of hands even though my opponent is the one pushing. does that mean it wants me to call 60.5% of hands i have? i put it to manually assume hes pushing 75% of hands. thus is it saying i can profitably call 22+, A2+, K2+, Q2+, J5+, J2s+,T7+,T5s+98+ etc?
