I have created a program that actually go through my handhistories and pick up chips count in different stages like bubble, 3handed, HU, etc and calculate the equity according to ICM and compare it with how I did to show my ROI breakdown of different stages.

Anybody interested in seeing results? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
Of course, I am still accumulating handhistories.

Sounds like fun, and also useful if you can find the equity dips.

what do u mean by "equity dips"? I do track everybody's chips count if that's what you mean.

If you start from, say, five handed, you will get a chart that shows your value at each point when a player gets knocked out.

You may find that your EV is lower at some points than others, which means you are playing worse around that point.

If you have an EV of $4.55 at the start of four handed play, $3.33 at the start of three handed play and a return of $4.01 after the tourney, it might mean that your bubble play needs work.

That's exactly what I aim for. Since SNGs have very different stages, early, bubble, 3handed, HU, I believe each stage require slight adjustment and different skills. So to see my equity at different stages will help me work on specific stages. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Very Cool. Im not bright enough to write programs like this. I have trouble just getting my confuser to work properly. If you need more hand histories to test out I can send you some. Are you going to share this program once you have it working?

What language do you use? I can hack Perl/PHP/C/SQL -- if you have more ideas to implement I'd be more than happy to pitch in!

VBA, and C++. I have not used UNIX for a few years now.

had i any inkling you were this intelligent when we played heads up a few weeks ago, i might have been a little more nervous [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Did I lose that one? I have to admit [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] one reason trigger my work is I want to prove to myself that I suck at HU play in a quantitative way.
