If SkipSB is checked then there will be no small blind position this round, the SB will not be posted.

To do what you want, you'd need to manually lock SB's ranges to 0%.

Hi! I have two questions.

1. How many times do I need to samples to have a really accurate response?

2. Is HRC a good software to create my preflop strategy? Not only push/only. Also limps, OR, 3bets etc... Or is it super accurate only when there is a push fold situation?

Hey there!

How much time should last this tree:

8handed and everyone 20bb

Limp, RFI and all in, all 3 options available. With overlimps, flats and overflats ( like a real game ). And as a 3bet, only all in option.

1000m samples.... more or less, how much time?

A rough guideline is 2500m times the size of the tree in GB.

You can see the size during the hand setup, or later at Hand: Change Postflop Abstraction.

I ask because that hand on 1000m times, I put it running at night, and when I woke up ( 6 hours ) was only 2%, and then I paused a couple hours later with 3%. It's not normal, right?

Sampling speed will vary over time, that's normal. It depends how often hands reach Postflop etc. It will generally speed up a bit over time, as ranges become better defined.

Your sampling rate seems really low though. Make sure you have enough spare memory within HRC, if you go too close to the memory limit then performance will suffer.

What CPU do you use? Maybe use slightly simpler abstractions / trees if your hardware is a bit outdated. For instance, using larger sizings Postflop will speed things up a lot.

I don't have this one. Do you recommend me to download the beta? I didn't know about that one.

So, for creating a preflop strategy, not only push/fold situations etc, do you recommend only the beta one, or both?

Thanks for your time plexiq!

I'd strongly recommend the beta for any calculations with flat calls or limps, yes.

The regular version forces a check-down Postflop if the pot is not all in by then.

I already have the beta. What about the abstractions? How many are necesaries to have a good accurate tree?

Thanks again!

Hello, I'm attempting to run a MTT simulation with the following setup: 647 players paid, 320 players remaining in the tournament, however, HRC seems to be running the sim as if it were a final table.

I'll include screenshots of my setup below so you can get an idea of what I'm talking about

Setup:

And here is how I can see there is an issue, these are the bubble factors that HRC spits out

I am almost positive that these bubble factors are assuming that only 8 players are left in the tournament (i.e. we are on the final table), not 320 players remaining like the parameters that I input.

Anyone know where I might be making an error?

Something is wrong with your MTT setup.

The average stack on your table is 3780, the global average is over 48000. Essentially everyone at your table is really short stacked.

Check the chip total, you probably made a mistake with the setup.

I play 6 player SnG Double ups with the payout being 33.3% for the top 3 finishers.

This leads to long, unhappy 4 player bubble play.

Is there a way to easily rotate the stacks with the button rotation? Just shifting bubble to co etc?

Then could just click around the circle as most hands get a walk.

You can rotate the positions fairly quickly by cut/pasting the UTG to BB, the other positions will adjust acordingly:
Select the old UTG stack in the setup table, cut (Ctrl+X), select the cell below the old BB, paste (Ctrl+V).

What is the correct way to input the rake? I created a tree shown below for a 6max 100bb game and inputted what I believed to be a 4bb cap at 5%, but in the "hand settings" under "equity model" it shows the "rakecap" equal to 400. After solving the tree for a while it shows the resultant rake as essentially -29bb/100. I'm just wondering if I've inputted the settings incorrectly or if the "rakecap" = 400 is misleading in some way.

Rake cap in the hand details is displayed in cents atm. Your setup is fine, it's a 4bb cap. We'll have to fix the display sometime, agree that this is confusing.

The resultant overall rake being -29bb/100 for a 4bb cap at 5% seems higher than I would have ever guessed. This is correct, though?

Try a deep stacked HU hand push/fold and have players push/call 100%, you'll see the exact effective cap then. Lmk if it doesn't match the configured cap.

Idk, 5% 4bb cap seems like an awful rake structure, 0.3bb/hand doesn't look particularly unrealistic to me.
