Hey

I've been playing STT superturbos 6-max and was wondering...

1. What is the appropriate time to use either of the ICM or Chip Equity when analyzing hands?

2. And can someone describe the differences between the two?

Thanks

2. yes. kinda. but there are tons of threads about it floating around here, so i won't bother.

1. ICM is always (non-strictly) more appropriate. But the farther you are from the money and the more top-heavy the payout, the more similar cEV is to it. HU the two are identical.
