Under the Gun pushes 7% of hands at 20BB (6-Max).

This range is 2 percentage points tighter than at 15BB (9% → 7%).

At 20BB you begin to have some post-flop flexibility, but ICM pressure and stack-to-pot ratios still make push/fold the baseline strategy in most tournament spots.

20BB means 20 big blinds behind the posted blinds. The ranges are chip-EV Nash equilibria with no antes and no ICM, solved from 1 to 25bb against the Nash calling ranges of the players left to act. How the ranges are computed

Yes — this chart is a precomputed Nash equilibrium push/fold solution (chip-EV based), not a rule of thumb.
