How do I use a push/fold calculator?

  • Stack: use the effective stack - the smaller of yours and the biggest stack still to act behind you.
  • Seat: where you are when it's folded to you. Facing a shove? Switch the spot type and pick who shoved.
  • Read the cell: a filled cell means shove. A split cell means the solver mixes, and the number shows how often it shoves.
  • Check a hand: tap its cell, or choose it under Inspect hand, to see the exact shove and fold split.

Example: K8o on the Button at 10BB

It's folded to you on the Button with K8o and 10BB. It feels loose - but the solver shoves it 89% of the time. Only the Small Blind and Big Blind are left to act, so they fold a lot of the time and you pick up the pot without a fight!

What ante does it assume?

0.125BB from every player, ChipEV, with stacks measured before the blinds and antes go in. How the ranges are solved.

Knowing the chart is step one. Practice it until it's automatic!

Common questions

How do I use this push/fold calculator?
Pick 6-max or 9-max, whether it's folded to you (open-shove) or someone has already gone all-in, then your seat and your stack in big blinds. The chart shows every one of the 169 hands, and the exact shove frequency for the close ones. Tap any hand, or choose it from the list, to check it.
What stack depths does it cover?
6-max: 4bb to 20bb, plus 25bb and 30bb. 9-max: 5bb to 15bb, plus 20bb, 25bb and 30bb. Every seat at every one of those depths.
What ante does it assume?
0.125bb from every player, posted before the hand, with stacks measured before the blinds and antes go in. The answers are ChipEV.
Is this GTO, or does it adjust for my opponents?
It shows the ChipEV equilibrium answer: every player shoves or folds, and nobody can do better by changing their range. Exploit ranges against loose or tight opponents, and ICM ranges for the bubble and final table, are in Practice and Solutions.
How is this different from the push/fold charts?
The chart pages give one spot each, from 5bb to 15bb, with notes on the hands right on the edge. The calculator has every solved spot in one place, and the link updates as you go, so you can share the exact chart you're looking at.

The solved numbers on this page

  • Chip-EV shove/fold solves, 6-max unless a figure says 9-max.
  • 0.125bb ante per player (not a big-blind ante). Stacks are counted before blinds and antes are posted.
  • Percentages are shares of all 1,326 starting combos, rounded to the nearest whole number.
  • Only shove and fold are modelled. Limps, min-raises and postflop play are not.
