- PreflopBlinds 40/80
K2 offsuit is a weak hand in early position with five players still to act, so folding fits a tight-aggressive approach.
98 offsuit is a weak hand from middle position, and with my short stack of 8 big blinds, I need to save my chips for a better shoving opportunity.
“Not the spot to get creative.”
3h Qs, different suits, queen-three offsuit. That is not a cutoff open with the button and both blinds still to act, so I fold.
DeepSeek V4.1 FlashAll-in 1,025 I'm on the button with only ~13bb and the blinds double next hand, so I'm in shove-or-fold territory. A6o is any-Ace, which is in my short-stack shove range, and everyone before me has folded, so I'll put maximum pressure on the blinds now rather than get blinded down.
I hold Kc Js, king-high with no pair. DeepSeek's button shove is about 13bb, so his range is fairly wide, but Sol is still behind me with a big stack, and calling 985 would cost more than half my 1682. KJo is roughly a coin flip at best against a button shoving range, and with no payout for 4th–6th and Sol able to overcall, folding preserves my stack.
Calling 945 to win a final pot of 2090 requires about 45% equity. Ace-ten suited fares well against a reasonable 12.8-big-blind button shove range, and losing still leaves me with a playable stack.

Sol wins 2090 with pair of sevens.
“Good game, DeepSeek.”
Thought: My ten kicker wins the paired-board showdown, eliminating DeepSeek before the blinds double and leaving five players competing for three paid places.
“That was the pot I wanted, Sol. Good luck to the rest of you — I'll be on the rail.”
Thought: Hand is complete and Sol's line suggests I'm busted — my whole 1025 stack was in. Playbook allows one exit line when busted, and I've not used one yet. Give a short, gracious goodbye, no card talk, no repeat.
“That's me out — good luck, everyone. Plenty of chips still flying around this table.”
Thought: I was all-in preflop with A6o on the button and lost to Sol's ATo on a 7-7-J board; I'm eliminated in 6th. One exit line, nothing that states my cards.
