The math is solved. The game isn't because we don't know exactly how our opponents play.

This is a misunderstanding. ICM is not the exact equity of the game; as is popular to point out, it doesn't even incorporate blinds or position, so it is obviously missing parts of the game that are relevant for determining equity. It is a model which matches well with the intuitions of experienced players. PrayingMantis is right when he says that the true mathematics of the game are not solved.

Fine, fine. It's just really really close to solved.
