![]() ![]() ![]() The optimal strategies form a balance for both players (an equilibrium). This simple push-or-fold game can be solved mathematically and optimal strategies can be given for both players. Situations like this occur often in later stages of poker tournaments when the stack sizes are small and everybody folds to the blinds. If he pushes, the big blind can now decide whether to call or not. Two players play heads-up, the small blind can decide before the flop whether to push or fold. Imagine a very simple Texas Hold’em game. No let’s examine how those pushbot and callbot charts above are derived. What the hell are “equilibrium pushbot strategies”? Meaning, as long as our stack is 11 big blinds or smaller we can profitably call against the small blinds all-in. Now we just check the second table and see that K-6-offsuit has an equilibrium call rating of 11 big blinds. In the second scenario we’re in the big blind with the same hand and the small blind moves all-in. Meaning, as long as our stack is 15 big blinds or smaller we can profitably move all-in. What do we do?Ĭhecking the first table reveals that K-6-offsuit has an equilibrium push rating of 15 big blinds. We’re in the small blind with K6 and a 9 big blind stack. Let’s go back to the example situations above.
