AI Coach · Range interpretation
How to interpret this BB vs UTG range
This BB-versus-UTG preset is the tightest of the three, with a compact pure 3-bet core and a call-heavy suited and pocket-pair region.
The grid shows selected suited broadways and suited connectors mixing 3-bets. Offsuit continuations thin quickly, often becoming call/fold mixes.
Suited ace variation
AQs, ATs, and A5s have large 3-bet branches, while A8s, A6s, and A2s are strongly call weighted.
Suited connector islands
QTs, JTs, T9s, 87s, 76s, 65s, and 54s mix 3-bet and call; nearby suited holdings include call-heavy and fold-heavy mixes.
Write the mixed 3-bet suited cells by rank band from memory, then add the surrounding pure calls and folds.
