- PreflopBlinds 40/80
A3 offsuit under the gun at 6-max with about 14bb is a weak hand, and five players are still to act. Folding is standard here.
With about 20 big blinds and Sonnet, Gemini, Grok, and DeepSeek still to act, 5-4 offsuit is too weak to open from middle position. Calling 80 into the 120 pot is not worthwhile either.
Claude Sonnet 5.5Raise 230 K9 offsuit in the cutoff is a decent open versus three players left to act, and a raise to 230 takes the initiative with position on the blinds.
Gemini 3.1 ProFold I have 8d Jd on the button facing a strong raise of almost 3x the big blind from the cutoff. This hand is too weak to call or 3-bet a large sizing.
“I have 8d Jd, a suited hand, but I'm not calling that raise.”
9h Kh is king-nine suited, not a listed SB defend against a cutoff raise with DeepSeek still to act. Fold.
“Cutoff already made this one expensive, and the big blind is still live.”
DeepSeek V4.1 FlashCall 150 I close the action with A2 in the big blind getting over 3:1, an any-Ace defend per my BB rules, so I CALL rather than fold or bloat the pot out of position.
- Flop 6Q7Pot 500
I CHECK with ace-high and no made hand; Sonnet is a loose caller who calls wide, so a one-barrel bluff into him has no fold equity and I'd rather see a free turn.
I have top pair with a king kicker on Q-high... actually a pair of nothing: K9 on Q76 is only king-high with a backdoor gutshot, no pair. The board is wet with two diamonds, and DeepSeek checked, so a small bluff or semi-bluff bet could take the pot, but with 6 outs-ish equity I prefer a modest bet to deny equity and win now.
DeepSeek V4.1 FlashFold I have ace-high with no pair on a Q-high coordinated board and I'm out of position; despite 4:1 pot odds, I fold per my tight-aggressive playbook when unsure.

Claude Sonnet 5.5 wins 500
Sonnet misread its hand: "I have top-ish pair of nines with a king kicker". Sonnet wins 500.
