22-55 is like auto call for these people, same in 6max, they are raising 22-55 100% of time, even tho my pahud says they are raising 20% of the time,

is the value of the hand determined from T9o vs 100% random hands, 22 vs 100% random hands and T9 does better?

At www.icmpoker.com you can use the ICM Calculator to compute 10 payout spots and the ICM Applicator produces IDENTICAL results to SnGPT and I'm giving them away free. I'm sure it'll be worth your time to check it out</p> <p>Thanks</p> Hi,

Anyway, what I wrote was this:

Pokerstove is really impressive. I’ve written something remotely
similar for my needs and the evaluation speed doesn’t even come close.

I’m trying to use pokerstove for a research project. Is there a way to
pass command line parameters to it somehow or pipe input from stdin
and output to stdout instead of the GUI?

If not, are you interested in adding it?

If you use the preflop catagory to select a players hand, it gives a slightly different equity then when you manually select each card seperatly.

Also, the amount of difference gets SMALLER as you restrict other players' possible holdings. I moved all players from 100% to 9.8% possible hands.

I think the following might be an obvious observation, but pot equity(win prob) can not be treated as absolute hand value due to the power of folding and implied odds.

It’s a great piece of software that has already helped me understand some aspects of the game better. But you already knew that.
