    What is ICM? I tried googling it but I didn't find anything associated with poker.

    stands for independent chip model, it basicly is a way to calculate the equity of a chip stack in a tournament setting since the chips u gain are always worth less than the chips u lose. helps to calculate if a shove or call is actually +EV late game situations

    Cash games taught me patience.

    Taught me the hard way, but taught me nonetheless.

    Joining this forum - I have learned more about where to go for tools, where to find great resources - I obv haven't used them all yet, but I'm getting there.... and, almost more importantly, I have, by reading other posts, learned that Full Tilt does not have it in for me.....they have it in for a whole bunch of us!
