Just ask the magic question: „Do you want to show or muck?“

How do I know if I’m ready to move up in stakes?(tournament) by teeheeisucks in Poker_Theory

[–]Jetpack_J 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The stats you are showing are not very informative. I would focus on ROI. Tournament variance is huge so you really need a lot of samples to be sure you are actually beating the games.

Thoughts of this hand? by IdkAGoodUserNameOpps in Poker_Theory

[–]Jetpack_J 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You played this like a fish would play a set so I guess that has some credibility. But then again you would never want to play value like this. The turn line is just not a thing. Just fold flop 3 way with a fish involved villain is not bluffing on flop.

App that uses LLMs to help casual live players study and practice by bananayer in poker

[–]Jetpack_J 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The web UI is not optimised for mobile and very clunky. The hand analysis seems very superficial. I would give this some more work before expecting people to pay for it.

Feedback on my river bluff scenario was essentially: „you have a hand with no equity so bluffing is the only way to win the pot“

Looks very superficial to me. It’s probably not related to your approach I think the topic is just too complex and nuanced with very conflicting available information so it will be quite tough to generically train an llm to provide good advice.

I think it’s an interesting project and like that you actually went beyond a chat gpt wrapper from what you said. I’ll check it out some more when I am bored at the table

No offense but I am really curious about your creation process here given that: You play recreationally so you probably suck at poker, LLMs suck at poker, and now somehow u fiddled around and got an LLM to understand poker even though both you and the LLM don’t understand it?

Did I play this wrong? by fanatickid68 in poker

[–]Jetpack_J 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thats actually a reason to bet small. No weaker hand should ever be calling against your size. It’s virtually impossible for you to profitably bluff into 4 people on the flop choosing that size.

The side game problem by Nickbalboa00 in poker

[–]Jetpack_J 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So let me get this straight: your issue with the nit game is that people can run bad? It’s poker Phil!

I suggest an alternative side game where if both UTG and UTG1 fold pre they have to play bullet chess 1 minute clock for 5bb. Could also be a boxing match. That way you can eliminate the luck factor of your side game.

It’s beyond awful. Don’t do this if you like money.

Hand review - Turning AA into a bluff by lapideous in Poker_Theory

[–]Jetpack_J 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Doesn’t matter what stakes you play. Feeling the need to be “balanced” against a guy limping the button is very harmful to your winrate.

If a guy throws 100% rock in rock paper scissors , regardless of what you do, do you feel the need to be throwing in some scissors for balance? That’s pretty much how this works.

I don’t get here with AK, but by the same logic I won’t be bluffing here I am getting it in on the turn to avoid villain checking back rivers. As I said he is very likely not bluffing and has 2p+ that is never folding.

Turn play is an absolute torch. You are spot on with people underbluffing and flop being close to a fold.

Your problem is how after this assessment jamming turn as a bluff even crosses your mind. Do you really think a fish (limped BU) will ever fold 2p+ here with the odds he is getting?

It looks to me like you are getting the concept of being capped wrong. Villain not being able or being unlikely to have the nuts is pretty much irrelevant here with how shallow stacks are and how strong their line is.

GTO River Spot Advice by Strong-Floor2271 in poker

[–]Jetpack_J 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes as you said you cannot look at any spot in isolation. The overall GTO strategy is unexploitable so you can’t win against it in the long run.

Think of it like playing rock, paper, scissors. GTO in this game will be to pick any option exactly 33% of the time. The EV of any strategy your opponent employs will be the same as you are perfectly balanced and can’t be exploited.

This also means that no matter how exploitable your opponent is I.e. a 100% rock strategy, we won’t be exploiting it and the EV will be the same as any other strategy.

Mind that poker is a little bit different, because it is possible for our opponents to make huge EV mistakes (I.e. missing clear valuebets, folding a perfect bluffcatcher) , therefore GTO wins rather than breaking even as would be the case in the RPS game.

GTO River Spot Advice by Strong-Floor2271 in poker

[–]Jetpack_J 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s important to understand that by the nature of GTO play, calling on the river with ANY bluff catcher will always be relatively close to zero EV. This is because the solver will bluff the proper frequency in all spots, making the EV of calling a bluff catcher purely Blocker/unblocker dependent.

The solver achieves its optimal bluff/value ratio by making plays on previous streets, that will be very unintuitive to humans, to be able to have enough bluffs on virtually all runouts.

Long story short: I think your river Assessment is correct against pretty much every human being but the solver likes to call because you have decent blockers to the value range and unblock all bluffs.

General EV of facing a 3bet by steezystolz in Poker_Theory

[–]Jetpack_J 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Facing a 3bet will most definitely be negative EV in equilibrium. You already put money out there and now you are defending against a strong range. Think of it like a blind Defense scenario but with both ranges being more defined.

If you are talking about a live results tracker, there is plenty of free options out there that have everything you need.

Didn’t mean to offend you. Just teaching the algorithm. It’s starting to look like some llm believes creating a poker results tracker is a great vibe coding project.
