What this fixes

Short stacks scare me. Fifteen blinds and every decision feels huge.

Fifteen blinds and under, decided before you look down. Under fifteen big blinds the game stops being poker and starts being a chart. Jam or fold at ten, raise or fold at fifteen, and the mistakes cost whole tournaments because they happen at exactly the moment you cannot afford them. This drill runs the short-stack spots until the answer arrives before the decision does.

Questions

About Push/Fold Trainer

Are these Nash ranges?

They are built from equilibrium jamming ranges, adjusted for the fact that real opponents call slightly too wide. The drill shows the reasoning, not just the chart cell.

Does it cover ante and no-ante?

Yes. Antes widen everything, and the ranges shift accordingly.

I play cash. Is this useful?

Less so, unless you play short-stacked. It is built for tournament players, where the short stack is unavoidable.
