Message: [QUOTE="MTT Database Review, post: 7188102, member: 1008927"] Ideally you are playing tournaments where you have edge on most opponents. But there can be reason to take a deal. Classic ICM deal will be great to take if you are a middle stack with CL right behind you and bunch of shorties around. Because ICM doesnt calculate with how horrible your future opportunies are. So even with some edge, it might be good to take it. Taking ICM deal when you are CL is obviously extra bad. Especially in hyper turbos it can be great to take deal after you play your UTG. Not so relevant with avg stacks at 40bb, but if avg is 7bb, I would take it on UTG even against pretty weak players. And of course if its manual deal and you can talk your way into better number than deserved then take it. [/QUOTE]
