progressSB vs LJ open at 60 BB
8-max MTT · ante 12.5 % · chip EV
SB facing a LJ open at 60 BB
The lojack opens to 2 BB and the action reaches the small blind with 60 big blinds. The book folds 78% of hands, calls with 13%, 3-bets to 8 BB with 8.7% and goes all-in with 0.1%.
Always 3-bet: AA, AKs, AKo, AQs, AQo, KK, QQ, JJ, JTs, J9s, 99.
Always call: ATs, ATo, A8s, A7s, A6s, A5s, A4s, KJs, KJo, KTs, KTo, QJs and 5 more.
The small blind calls rarely: it is out of position against the raiser and the big blind can still squeeze behind, so the book prefers to either 3-bet or fold.

One short lesson a day, each with a worked example in exact numbers: chips vs. money, the bubble factor, who feels the pressure, payout structures, satellites. No account needed.
Numbers come from the progressGTO solution book (v14, chip EV, 8-max, ante 12.5 %): our own equilibrium computation with a modelled postflop. It is an approximation, not an exact solution, and it keeps improving. Hover or tap a hand to see its exact frequencies.
