Mastering GTO Short-Stack Play with Jonathan Little – Elevate Your Tournament Strategy

Short-stack spots decide tournaments. Mastering GTO Short-Stack Play gives you a clear, download-ready system for 15–25bb so you stop guessing near bubbles and final tables. If you want a broader framework to plug this into, Kevin Rabichow’s plan-first approach in RIO – The Game Plan pairs well for weekly study structure. For background on ICM math that drives many short-stack choices, see the primer: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Independent_Chip_Model.

Short-Stack Tournament Strategy: 15–25bb Essentials

  • Position-led push/fold and 3-bet shove ranges you can trust under pressure.
  • Postflop at low SPR: small c-bet plans, turn leverage, and river discipline.
  • Fast GTO rules you can apply live/online without overloading the clock.
    Looking to sharpen decision process as you add these ranges? The conceptual toolkit in Solve For Y – Advanced Principles helps align your reasoning with your new frequencies.

GTO Short-Stack Decisions vs. Exploits

  • When to stay balanced vs. pools that overfold or overcall.
  • Adjusting shove/call thresholds vs. wide SB/BB tendencies.
  • Using blocker logic to time thin value and selective bluffs.
    For preflop range confidence beyond 25bb, study a tournament macro course like Raise Your Edge – Tournament Masterclass.

Study Kit & Tools (Charts, Quizzes, Drills)

  • Ordered video lessons from fundamentals to ICM nodes.
  • Downloadable charts for common stacks/positions.
  • Quizzes and hand tagging to build automaticity.
    If you prefer solver-heavy reps to validate spots, add BitB PIO Masterclass for tree reading and node-locking routines.
