I suspect you just don't understand what ICM means (which is OK, btw). First, ICM is not a "strategy". Second, anyone who has a strong ROI over long enough samples, is "using" some form of ICM, or a similar model, wheather knowingly or not.

As for having a style that is "a bit different" than normal 2+2 style, well, surprise, but there is no 2+2 style. There is an approach to the game and for many basic situations which you might call "2+2 style" maybe, which is nowadys basically the ICM oriented bubble/ITM game, but you must understant that people can be (winning) 2+2ers and still play rather differently, especially in early levels.

Just saying I don't do the actual math or check HHs with eastbay's program. ICM is valid when it comes to open pushing which is obviously a huge part of STT play, I think it would benefit me in the future to do so. I said "it has nothing to do with ICM" because the difference in my style come from my play in the early game... I agree with most of the late game play which is advocated on this forum.

The play in the early game usually has very little or actually nothing to do with ICM (for most normal considerations, that is).

Playing real tight or real loose?

Seeing a lot of cheap flops with stuff like 97?

1. Hit the print screen button (Prt Scr).

2. Open Paint, go to edit and select paste and save the file to the desktop.

3. Type in free image hosting in google and find a free server to post your pic.

4. Post it here as an image.

Thanks. On other message boards you can upload a picture file directly, and I didn't see an option for that. I guess it has to go on the web then. Pah, can't be bothered...you'll just have to believe me [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

My first 700 $215s had my ROI at about 38%. It's obvious this is an abberation and not possible to sustain. Since then my ROI has obviously dropped down quite a bit. The moral of the story is that just because youve been acheiving something after 500 sit and gos, doesnt mean you will after 1000-2000.

500-700 sit and gos are a very small sample size...much smaller than people think. You always want to believe that your results actually are legitimate and that maybe you can acheive a 30+ ROI, but most of the time you have just been lucky.
