The tables show the highest effective stack size in big blinds where a hand can be pushed or called. Values bigger than 20 are only displayed as 20+, which means the hand can be played for any stack size of 20bb or less. (Playing push-or-fold is typically only recommended up to around 10bb, depending on the situation. Using push-or-fold for >20bb is almost certainly a bad idea.)

Some hands have gaps in their pushing strategies, they are marked with * and the details are displayed below the charts. For example 63s is included in the pushing strategy for stack sizes between 7.1 and 5.1bb, and stacks below 2.3bb.

SB (9.0bb): T3s
BB (6.0bb): Q2o

The effective stack size is the smaller of the two, before posting any blinds. So the relevant stack size for both players in this hand is 6.0 big blinds.

To find the strategy for SB's T3s, check the green area (suited hands) of the 'Pusher' chart. The value for T3s is 7.7bb, and since that is larger than the current effective stacks the hand is a push in the Nash Equilibrium strategy.

To determine if the BB should call with his Q2o, check the orange area (offsuit hands) of the 'Caller' chart and locate Q2o. The value there is 5.6bb. The effective stacks in the current hand are larger than the value for Q2o, so this hand is a fold in the Nash Equilibrium strategy.

This example refers to the no ante solution. If the table values don't match the example then make sure the 'No Ante' tab is selected above.

The solution available on this site was independently calculated and published in 2007 as part of a coding experiment, inspired by the discussion of the topic in Mathematics of Poker.

Similar charts have been published by various sources, including SNGPT and Mathematics of Poker, and there are some minor differences between them. The exact Nash solution is considerably more complex and the chart only shows a simplified version. Most hands are actually played with mixed strategies for at least a few stack sizes, and many hands have multiple smaller gaps in their strategy, similar to the 63s, 53s, 43s hands. These details are omitted in the chart to allow a compact representation of the strategy.

The differences in published solutions are most likely due to choices made when simplifying the exact solution into easy-to-use charts. Due to the considerable number of rather arbitrary choices when simplifying into chart form, it is actually quite unlikely that two independently created charts would perfectly match.

The file linked below contains the unsimplified push-or-fold equilibrium strategies for all stacks of 1bb ≤ stacks ≤ 200bb in steps of 0.05bb. This data can be used to derive the charts. For practical purposes the chart form should be completely sufficient though.

The data linked here was re-calculated with a later version than the original chart data, so there may be some very slight differences.

In order to win some of the big Spin & Gold multipliers, here is some helpful strategy advice!

Vary Your Aggression

Most recreational players will be looking to win big when they click on the Spin & Gold window, so seeing another 'boring' 2x multiplier won't be exactly what they're looking for and will soon be looking to move onto another one.

However, you can put yourself in a position to take advantage of this by varying your aggression. Because there's an increased chance that players simply won't care as much about a 2x multiplier, widen your ranges and bluff less in order to take advantage of your opponents' potential sloppy plays.

Conversely, when you do stumble upon a big multiplier, bluff more and bluffcatch less in order to capitalize on any tight play from your opponents.

Play to Win

The 2x, 3x and 5x multiplier are all winner-takes-all, and that should incentivize you to play to win. You're not trying to ladder, you have to push all the way to the finish in pursuit of victory.

And even with the big multipliers, if you fill yourself with the notion of playing to win, you'll put yourself in the best spot possible to take down a big first prize when it happens to you!

Focus on the Small Multipliers

A vast majority of your volume at the Spin & Gold tables will be in the 2x or even 3x multiplier level. Therefore don't sacrifice your ROI by giving these any less attention than they deserve. Similarly to the first point, make these a real focus for your tournament grind and you'll reap the rewards when others are dreaming of the big multipliers.

Work on Your Push-Fold Strategy

The hyper-turbo structure will mean that there will come a time when the Spin & Gold ends up in a push-fold state. Revise your shoving ranges in order to maximize the pressure on your opponents, and make sure you know your calling ranges in order to know what to do in certain situations.
