M is a ratio where you can determine what action to take according to different zones.

Formula is: M = stack / (SB + BB + Antes).

This^. In simpler terms it's how many orbits you have left before you blind out.

Have a google of the M-Factor by Dan Harrington. It's something he is quite knowledgeable in and uses it in his decision making for poker.
