I suck at scripting but it seems to get the numbers right. I've made this foremost to toy around with SNG bubble situations. I think the bubble factor concept is very useful - it quantifies something previously intuitive.

Feel free to improve on the script.

what exactly does it do?

Sorry, I should have been clearer.



You input payout structure and stacksizes - it calculates ICM and Bubble Factor (cost of losing divided by gain of winning against a certain stack). This concept is introduced in Kill Everyone.

The scipt itself is a learning tool - you can play around with different scenarios to see how the presence of different stacks should influence your decisions on the bubble.

Looks good! You should post this on the overcards.com AHK wiki page.

Juk

ok. so if you're stack 3, you read across, and it says gogogo against stack 1, gogo against stack2, and stay the f*** out of stack4's way.

yeah in not so many words

Basically the book talks about "tournament odds". In order to play a pot against a stack against whom you have a bubble factor of for example 2 .00 you need to divide your pot odds by 2.00 to get your tournament odds.

The interesting thing is how the presence of shorties really skyrockets the medium stacks bf vs. bigstacks etc.


Thanks!
I put a page up but am too thick to manage to put it on the AHK page. Help appretiated.

Nice work Everlong, although I dont play sng's. No more Mod's??

I am a jack of all trades. With jack I mean mediocre at much, excellent at nothing

Nice job

I added a link on the main overcards.com AutoHotkey page, and added you to the NoSpammers list so you should be able to edit the main page in the future. Hopefully this works, I can't be sure since you are the only "NoSpammer" with a space in your name.

Thanks!

Thanks, Everlong.

I've been thinking about this and it would be a really useful HUD. Don't know how hard it is to make a HUD for something like this, but I'd pay a lot for this. I imagine other sit&go players would be interested too.

I would like to extend the calculator to 6 players and imagine that somewhere around 6 is where a hud might come in handy too. With more players left

a, the numbers aren't as interesting
b, the no of calculations skyrockets.

This hud would only display Your BF vs. the other remaining though, right?


I would like something like this as well. Nanochip has some really nice user-config overlays in FTS...I don't think I could make this work though.

Yea, it'd be great if the calculator could do more than 4 players (even if it isn't made into a HUD).

Yes, I would want the HUD to recognize my stack and the other stacks and show me the BF vs. the remaining players.

It doesn't sound like it should be that difficult (for someone who knows how to do this stuff).

If anyone else is interested, post below so maybe someone will be interested in making this.

there is an AHK HUD framework floating around u know ...

it is not too hard to parse the HH and auto-fill in the boxes / click "Calculate" in the original app - just depends how much CPU the calculations take if this is feasible. Although this would seem to cross the line in to "Realtime EV calculators" - a direction I'm not sure is either desirable at large or permitted in use...
