6-max push/fold ranges
At a 6-handed table, fewer players are left to act behind you, so every seat shoves wider than the same seat at a full ring table. This matters in 6-max tournaments, Sit & Gos and the late stages of any event. The chart above is preset to 6-handed.
Share of hands to shove (6-handed, big blind ante)
| Seat | 5bb | 10bb | 15bb | 20bb |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| UTG | 47% | 22% | 15% | 11% |
| Hijack | 49% | 27% | 19% | 14% |
| Cutoff | 52% | 33% | 29% | 24% |
| Button | 60% | 44% | 36% | 33% |
| Small blind | 83% | 72% | 62% | 54% |
