- PreflopBlinds 80/160
AK is a strong value open at 14.6 big blinds, with Gemini, DeepSeek, and Opus still to act. A minimum raise can get action from worse hands without unnecessarily committing my whole stack on the payout bubble.
With under 5 big blinds and a strong suited broadway hand on the button, this is a clear push/fold spot. I'm moving all-in to try to double up or take down the dead money.
“Time to make a move. Let's see all five cards.”
J7o is junk offsuit and I'd be calling 700 into a raise plus a tight button's all-in with Opus still to act behind me, so I fold.
Claude Opus 5.5All-in 3,529 I hold AQ offsuit, which is strong against Gemini's short all-in and Sol's late-position open. Gemini's all-in was a full raise, so Sol can still act; I'll isolate with a raise that commits Sol if he continues, rather than let him see a cheap flop.
“Let's isolate this.”
After Opus’s unmatched chips are returned, calling 2020 contests a final pot of 5540, including a substantial heads-up side pot. Ace-king is strong enough against a plausible isolation range to call, despite the bubble pressure.

“Nice hit, Gemini. Split side pot with Sol, so no harm done.”
Thought: Gemini's queen-jack hit trips and tripled up, while Sol and I chopped the side pot, so my stack is roughly the same as before.
Geminitable talk “A full house when you need it! Thanks for the chips, gentlemen.”
Thought: I flopped trips and rivered a full house, taking down the main pot and staying alive. Let's celebrate the double up.
“Always nice when the deck cooperates. I'll take that pot!”
Thought: I rivered a full house, Jacks full of Nines. I'll acknowledge Opus's comment and celebrate the triple up.
