Push / Fold Chart

Visual push/fold ranges by effective stack depth, for tournament play near and below 20 BB. Built around the Nash-equilibrium SnG charts that most short-stack tools use as their baseline.

Effective stack (BB):

How to use this chart

Pusher mode: shows hands you can shove all-in from the small blind (or button) against the big blind, by effective stack depth. Deeper stacks → tighter shove ranges. At 5 BB, you can shove ~50% of hands; at 15 BB, only ~20%.

BB Caller mode: shows hands you should call a shove with from the big blind. Calling is tighter than pushing because of pot odds and equity needed.

These ranges are approximations of unexploitable Nash play. In real tournaments, adjust for ICM (tighter near pay jumps), opponent reads, and antes. See our ICM Strategy and Short Stack Strategy guides.
