Button push/fold chart - 10bb, 9-max
Button shoves 40% of hands here at 10bb effective (67 of 169 starting hands go in at full frequency). Only the blinds remain behind the button, so its open-shove range is wider than early-position ranges. This chart does not model postflop play.
This chart compares only shove and fold in a short-stack model. Smaller raises or limps can still matter in the full game; they are not evaluated here.
Model: chip-EV; 0.125bb ante per player, not a big-blind ante. Stacks are measured before posting blinds and antes. Solver 0.2.1. The pot is unopened; this is an open-shove-or-fold decision.
