Nash equilibrium ranges for 9-max, 12.5% antes. Suited hands above the diagonal, offsuit below.

What is push/fold?

When your stack falls below roughly 15 big blinds, the traditional 3-street game becomes impractical. This strategy is specifically solved for two decision points in ChipEV: push all-in or fold preflop. This removes post-flop decisions and maximises fold equity while protecting against being exploited.

How to use this chart

Set your stack size with the slider. Select your position at the table. Every blue cell is a push; every white cell is a fold.

Positions run from SB (small blind, pushes widest since only one player to act) through UTG (under the gun, tightest range as 8 players remain).

These ranges assume all players remaining to act are also using Nash equilibrium calling ranges, they are unexploitable but not always maximally exploitative against weak fields.
