I think your best plan is to look through the shadow's favorite threads post. I'm pretty sure some of the stuff is linked in there. There's also this lengthy thread from May that is very ICM focused that I think will lead you one way or another to where you want to go.

Thanks. I skimmed this thread and a few of the ones it links to. Still haven't found Sklansky v Easbay debate. Anyone who can find it = my hero.

I looked at JNash's S-Curve Hypothesis and though I've only been thinking about it for the past 5 minutes, I think there MAY be some merit in it. However, it doesn't or shouldn't apply to heads up poker, so I'm not gonna worry about it for now.

I'm confused as to why it was brought up so often in the post you linked me to.

My current stance:

I agree with Sklansky that two evenly matched players' equity is linear when heads up.

I believe that since our average opponent is not evenly matched with us, there are some exceptions to the linearity based on the way our opponents play at different stack sizes.
