hi,
i'm unclear about the terminology...
winning % needed to call:
is it the winning % we need to have to push all in vs a specific raising / calling range?
in other words the winning % needed by us if villain calls our shove?

--
also, i have a technical problem, i can't get the colors in the hands chart to change and update when i move the range cursor. the hands square always stays totally green.
(i might be missing some kind of application on my pc, i just reinstalled the operating system last week)

thank you very much

It's the win pct your hand needs versus a villain calling range to show a profit.

How is "win % needed to call" calculated ?

i.e. % opp folds to push is 59.75% , my position is BTN , raise size 3 BB and effective stack is 20 BB (not adjust for players left to act).

ev(fold)= 0.5975*(3+1.5)= 2.6888

When i am called the total pot is 41.5 BB and my investment is 20BB.
Therefore to get ev=0,

ev(call)= 0.4025*(41.5*equity - 20) = -2.6888

equity=((-2.6888/0.4025)+20)/41.5= 0.3210= 32.10%

I get by the program 33.79%.

Where am i wrong ?

How is it calculated? Always 5% ? Depending of the level it can be diferent since there is a maximum of 3$.

When I double click the .exe it briefly flickers open and then closes itself. I cannot seem to get the program to launch.

NYJ,

Hey, I just downloaded your tool, but I am having a basic calculation problem.

1. For simplicity, I set villain call to same as villian steal, meaning he will call 100% of my pushes.

2. I set bb raise to 2.5. (small blind vs big blind, small blind makes 3bb to go).

3. I selected that I am big blind on the postion selection buttons. I set effective stack to 10bb. First question, is this 10bb before or after posting blinds?

4. I calculated equity, (based on answer above) to either pushing 10 to win 12 (45.45% equity), or pushing 9 to win 11 (45% equity)

5. Why does the tool say I need 46.78% equity?

Thanks in advance

You need to adjust for the rake.

Seriously. I saw FTPDoug's post where he said they were going to do something about the SS problem but I haven't seen any details since then.

I repeat: link? (if you have details).

I was going to say something smart, but it's Christmas, so Merry Christmas

To answer the most commonly asked question: we *are* going to raise the minimum buy-in on standard (no icon) tables. That’s not all we’re going to do, but that’s the biggest change. And that's all I can say about that until the update.

How do you estimate a calling range for opponents?

In my HM HUD, I can see the opponent's VPIP for any position, but have no clue as to how to go about coming up with a calling range. Is is just a guess? Is there a stat somewhere? Do you have a list of factors you consider?

Since we use this tool away from the tables, is there a "rule of thumb" you use, like a fixed percentage of the opponent's steal range for all players?


Please help on this. I'm at a loss on what to use for a calling range. Thanks.
