FREE Small blind shoving EV calculator - Page 2 - Heads Up SNG and Spin and Gos -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

UPDATE

There was an error in calculation, we were winning about half a small blind too much. It is fixed now so download new version. You don't have to uninstall old version, it will just overwrite everything anyway.

Few words about stack size:
The stack size you enter is the stack size after posting. There are two cases, one is when Big Blind covers the Small Blind, and another when Small Blind covers.

1. case (Big Blind covers):
Stacks after posting are 3 bbs and 4 bbs, for SB and BB respectively. The stack size you have to enter is the "normal" effective stack size: 3bbs.
2. case example (Small Blind covers):
Stacks after posting are 5 bbs and 4 bbs, for SB and BB. Now, the stack size you have to enter is 4bbs + 1sb = 9sbs.
Just add one small blind to the "normal" effective stack size.

This is all due to the formula for EV (in small blinds) when called, which is calculated like this:
EV = equity * (3 + stacksize + stacksize - 1) - stacksize

Maybe this is too complicated. Should I just put a checkbox to indicate that small blind covers big blind (so the stack you have to enter is the usual effective stack size)?

TLDR
1. Small fix, you should download new version.
2. There are 2 cases when entering stack size, depending on who has the bigger stack.
3. Should I just include checkbox "Small blind covers" so we can use the standard effective stack size (smaller stack after posting) for both cases?
4. Should I simply make the calculation based on stacks before posting?

Hi SoWhat, you can make it simpler by working with the effective stack size in the conventional way. Virtually all poker software uses the effective stack size as the smallest stack before posting blinds or antes.

You don't need to consider who covers who.
The SB's expected profit (that is, the expected amount of chips the SB wins in bb units) is:

Expected_Profit_SB = p(BB folds)*1bb + [1-p(BB folds)](2S EquitySB - S) where S is the smallest stack before posting blinds.

If somebody knows some file hosting service that accepts .exe files and doesn't require registration tell me, and I'll upload it.
