ICMIZER has a long list of pre-created structures, but some are way more popular than the others. The majority of our players play in just one room, so that's our priority.
We have a simple way to create a custom tournament so if you play in a less popular format you can create custom tournaments representing your room, favorite this room in the tournament list and use this instead of our pre-created tournaments.
Heres the screenshot of that functionality:

Note that you can add any tournament structure to ICMIZER, but we add tournaments to SNG Coach on our end. So if you're asking about SNG Coach, where we currently have no ACR tournaments, we could consider doing that if you provide the formats you and other players might be interested in?

If that's a major room we could consider adding such feature in the future.
Pokerstars Bounty Builder offerings on Saturdays are always structured this way so it would be great to be able to run sims for those as well.

Can you explain how it works out that if I run a PKO hand let's say on the FT of a 90man PKO, I'm button and cover both blinds, they're around 10bb eff, that their calling ranges are wider, despite not being able to win my bounty, than what it is if I run the same hand in a non PKO set up???

And that even includes having to shove slightly tighter in the PKO version (59% compared with 61% in the non PKO).

Hello, I have a request I believe will be beneficial for all SNG COACH users.

Show where the ICM pressure is calculated in, as in most like 1500man even when down to 2 players it doesn't show where ICM is a playing factor. I've seen it where it shows there still 99 etc. players left. Also in the 45 man turbos, I don't believe the creators of the quizzes took enough time in creating them. I will Gyazo a picture to show where there are still 202 players left in this 45 man sng turbo. I believe this is messing up the fundamentals and scaring me to really invest into SNG COACH.

Hey Top Pig,
Explaining is usually hard, I can immediately suggest using the detailed result button (over the 13x13 push fold table) that's our unique feature that provides access to the internals of ICMIZER calculations.

With that said I'd be willing to help you better understand that situation & results. Currently, I am preparing a very exciting and interesting video about PKO & the TrueBounty model so maybe it will help too.

Please send me a Share link to your situation so I can open it and see what you're seeing and I'll explain whats going on there.

Hi MagicZach,
Thanks for reporting this issue.
Please note that all SNG Coach quizzes which are not in the Chip EV category currently are for final table situations.

So in your case, this 45 man quiz is for the final table, as you can see the sum of chips is 67500 which is the total in 45 man.

Apparently you've found a rather new bug where ICMIZE from SNG Coach doesn't turn of MTT mode in ICMIZER. I guess if you simply turn off MTT mode in ICMIZER and work in SNG Coach as usual everything will be working as expected.

We will fix the issue asap. Note that this doesn't affect the correctness of advice that SNG Coach gives. The bug only happens if ICMIZER tab is in MTT mode and you try to send a question from SNG Coach with the ICMIZE button.

Hi.
Thanks for the clarification.
That sounds pretty big, we will definitely consider adding that in some of the upcoming updates.

Any update on the addition of card removal/card bunching effect being added?

Saw some HRC sims which compared the normal mode and the new monte carlo mode which takes card removal effects into consideration. The effects of card removal are a lot more significant than I thought from late position.

Hoping you can answer these questions:

-Does the math change at all if your opponent knows that you are shoving with any two and your read is that in that spot, villain will 100% call with a wider range than ICM recommends?
-I've encountered a question on SNG Coach: Where villain shoving range at 8ish bbs is 26%, and the correct Hero calling range is 5.4% at 9ish bbs. Is there a beginner guide to ICM to help me answer as to why the correct calling range is so narrow, and why isn't it at, let's say, 11% or 15%?

I'd like a 75/25 option for these as well

Hey mephisto,
Sorry for the late response.
We've prepared a detailed guide that should help you with the first question
https://www.icmpoker.com/en/blog/per...dvanced-guide/
The math behind the calculation is always the same, the results change. As the calculator, ICMIZER takes input in and produces results out. If you edit your opponents' ranges according to your reads you change the input and will get a better ouput. That would be an exploitative strategy.

Regarding the second question, there is no simple ICM guide like that.
You can check out this video where I demonstrate the difference in our calling range depending on the certain parameters of the hand:
https://www.icmpoker.com/en/video/un...model-icmizer/
We will think about creating such a guide.
Generally, the big stack plays comfortably wide, the medium stack has to be careful, and short stack again doesn't care too much. That's how basic ICM works, you can learn more by reviewing hands in ICMIZER.

I would love such a guide, to be honest. As we wait for such a guide, do you have a resource that could best explain ICM?

I saw in a previous answer that SNG Coach questions are all final table based. I know you are busy with the imminent release of bounty questions... Any chance we could ever see MTT bubble questions, for let's say, an MTT Coach type of product?

Hey. Regarding MTT questions in SNG Coach - it is planned to be added. But at this trying time it's hard to predict when.

Regarding guide, actually we've got a pretty nice discussion going here regarding this topic:
https://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/3...d-why-1765516/
That's not a guide, but it's short and pretty much to the point.

Hello Pooh-Bah,

I have a question concerning the SNG Coach and an optimal play:

What about marginal hands in the Pushranges. Especially hands that are, say, only 0.03% +EV. Should you really always push them? In the next few hands, I could well get cards that are much more +EV. Isn't it wise to wait a little bit and choose a better spot than risking your tournament life for 0.03% +EV? On top of that, there is also a collision probability that players will take each other out of play with strong hands.

How exactly does Nitro work with MTT mode on when you load a full hand history? I assume that the program is not able to distinguish how many people are left unless it's at the final table right? I want to make sure I am getting the correct output and I am slightly confused how mtt mode is avaliable for pasting a full hand history.

Hi, I play double up sit n goes. I have been studying them on PT4 for a while, and have been looking at PT4's ICM results for hands. I just bought a year subscription to icmizer. I noticed that if I put the same hand in PT4 and icmizer and I set it as a double up on both, I get different results. Are there more than 1 ICM model to calculate results? I always assumed all ICM calulations used the same model but I could certainly be wrong.

Hi, there are no big shoulds generally.
Everything is situation-specific. 0.03% in SNG tournament is very different $ value than in a MTT tournament. In MTT that's like a lot of money to miss in one hand, in SNG on the other hand that's pretty skippable if you have a clear idea for future benefits. However, you can combine 0.03% now with future benefits, right? So the question is, how much risk does a +EV mode bring to the table.
If you are calling an all-in, for example, you are risking much more than when you push, so for calls I can recommend being pickier about the gain size. For pushing often the chance to lose is super low so anything >0 is immediately looking pretty good unless you know better.
Your overall tournament ROI will be a combination of all +EV moves you make during the tournament. So you need to know why you are skipping a +EV move now.
And I recommend switching ICMIZER in the $EV mode so you can better understand what this "0.03%" number represents.

Hi mement_mori,
The auto analysis feature is pretty smart. When you enter the number of total chips in the table it will use that data to make educated guesses about remaining number of players in the tournament.
You can learn more about how exactly it works in this article:
