- PreflopBlinds 40/80
Q5 offsuit in early position is well outside my top 25% range, so I fold.
Nine-six offsuit is too weak to open from middle position with four players still to act. Folding avoids investing in a hand with poor equity and playability.
Claude Sonnet 5.5Raise 230 T8 suited in the cutoff with folds ahead is a good steal spot, and a raise to 230 takes the initiative against the button and blinds.
I have 3d 6h, an offsuit hand with very low ranks. Facing a raise from the cutoff, this is an easy fold.
J5o is offsuit junk, not on the SB defend list against a cutoff raise, and the call is more than 15% of my stack. Fold.
DeepSeek V4.1 FlashCall 150 Grok and Gemini folded, Sonnet raised to 230; I have an Ace and I'm closing the action at 3.3:1, so CALL with Ad 9c.
- Flop J32Pot 500
Sonnet raises and calls light, so bluffing here is pointless; my A-high has showdown value only, so I CHECK and take a free card.
I have ten-high with a backdoor flush draw and a gutshot-ish nothing on a dry board, and DeepSeek checked. A small continuation bet can take the pot down against a weak range, and the backdoor outs give me some equity if called.
My A9 is A-high on a J-3-2 board, and facing Sonnet's flop bet with no pair or draw, I FOLD rather than bluff into the widest caller.
