  1. Trying to do some ICM calculation using Nash for the 45 Man SNGs on tilt.

    i'm running into this error message : Invalid Input: Number of players must be at least 2, and at most 9.

    I have all 9 chip stacks entered correctly so I believe the problem lies with how I'm entering the payout structure. ANyone regularly use this calculator and could shed a little light on this?? Is Nash only doable when there are three payouts?

    Right now I have the structure as follows : 0.38,0.25,0.16,0.1,0.06,0.05

    I've searched and unfortunatly haven't been able to find a thread that has addressed this.

    Thanks.
  2. I think that the calculator you are trying to use is this one:
    Nash ICM Push/Fold Calculator

    You can use up to 5 payout spots.

    You will be able to use this with 6 players or less remaining with the structure: "33,20,11,5,1" , but if you try and use it for more than 6 players, you'll fail.

    What you should know is that 6th place on FTP's 45-mans is a BIG jump from 7th (unlike stars) so you'll want to be really careful what you call with when there are 7 left or 8-9 left if you are covered and in 5th or better.

    Hope that helps!

    Reason: LCD for "297,180,99,45,9" is 9
  3. I grind 90 mans on FTP when i need to build my bankroll, and I ran into the same problem, I've made charts for perfect calling/jamming ranges for 5 handed play with even stacks ( obv things change with very short stacks and big stacks but that'd require an infinite # of charts so I just use common sense adjustments in those spots ). I have charts for +cEV calling/jamming ranges that are useful far from the $$ but I am just going by feel when we're on the bubble or 6-9 handed, is there a NASH calculator that allows for 9 payout spots?
