Chart library / Cutoff 6bb
Cutoff push/fold chart - 6bb, 6-max
Cutoff shoves 38% of hands here at 6bb effective (61 of 169 starting hands go in at full frequency). The cutoff is close enough to the button to apply real pressure on the blinds, so the opening range widens noticeably here.
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.

Common questions
- What percentage of hands does Cutoff open-shove at 6bb?
- Cutoff shoves 38% of hands at 6bb effective, 6-max. The chart compares only the listed all-in and fold decisions.
- Is this a baseline or an exploit range?
- This is a chip-EV baseline for a restricted shove/fold model. It does not compare limps, smaller raises or postflop play, and it is not a guarantee of unexploitable multiplayer play. Separate exploit solves target specified opponent tendencies.
