Hi friends, I'm new here, I would like someone to explain to me the function of the M stat for MTT on the HUD.
If anyone can guide me I would appreciate it.

'M' is the ratio of the player's stack size to the total cost of playing one complete round of hands at the table:

Stack Size / (Cost of Small Blind + Cost of Big Blind + (# of Antes * # of players))

Therefore is a players 'M' is 3 then they have enough chips for 3 complete rounds of hands at the table based on the current blind/ante level.

flag thank you very much for your attention and information.
Could you guide me on the best way for me to use this information in MTTs, please?

If you take a look at the Wikipidia entry for this statistic it gives five 'zones' that can be applied to a player based on their value of 'M'.

thanks flag
