Do the ICM if you disagree.

It's not a marginal thing.

Tank, I am not an ICM expert by anymeans; consequently I cannot say whether or not it even works.

However, I would balance any theory with practical experience and I play almost exclusively 6 man SNGs on ipoker with reasonable results.

If you could share your sharkscope results, I could guage a better view of your expertise on this matter.

Tank is simply giving you the ICM analysis (presumably from sngwiz) and ICM is the universally accepted best theoretical model for stts. Whether Tank decides to let you know his sn or not, suffice it to say he knows what he is talking about imo.

I pm'ed him my screen name as it's no massive secret.

It's just that I'm not a big fan of having to cite credentials before posting in strategy discussion is all. No big deal though.

Tank/Longy, how easy is it to use an ICM calculator? Are they free or do you have to pay for them?

I have to admit when I saw the OP, I thought fold here. And also what a bad play by the guy who shoves 16BB.

I think if someone is throwing out opinions then you're entitled to balance their words against prior experience on the subject.

When they've actually given you the facts and figures and proven for all to see what the correct decision would be? Ought to be more than enough.
