Default Open Pushing Spreadsheet

First, I would like to point out that 2+2'er eastbay has a great looking set of cashing equity S&G tools. I have not registered these yet, but I am sure I will in the next week or so. Good stuff.

I posted last week about making a spread sheet showing what percentage of the time you need to win if called to make open pushing +EV with an arbitrary stack and set calling standards for the whole table. I have finished the spread sheet, which has the following list of assumptions:
<ul type="square">
The chance of anyone having a calling hand is independant of anyone elses hand, with the exception that the spread sheet has two columns for each calling standard: one where you have an ace in the hand, one where you do not.

There will be only one caller if anyone calls.

If you are called, you are called by someone who has you covered.[/list]
Additionally, I have an adjustment factor if called to account for the fact that you may be called by one of the blinds (which the user can modify, I just slapped in some notional nominal values). You can also put in the value of ante's in terms of big blinds.

This sheet allows for someone to easily adjust the range of hands people will call with. It does not allow for easily putting in a mix of calling standards at various spots. It does allow for you to set your stack size (which, as one can imagine, is hugely important).

I also put in there EV in terms of BB and percentage of stack given specific winning chances.

So, how would you use this? Using pokerstove and the calling range of hands, one can see their winning chances and see the impact in terms of TC EV by open pushing.

Really, the sheet is nothing earth shattering, but facilitates investigating scenarios. If someone wants to host it I will shoot it to them. I don't mind emailing it, but I don't want to get swamped with requests.
