AI Coach · Range interpretation
How to interpret this UTG vs BTN 3-bet range
This preset is a compact UTG response that 4-bets a pure premium top end, mixes selected suited aces and suited broadways, and keeps many pocket pairs in the continuing range.
The grid shows AA, KK, and AKs as pure 4-bets, while AQs is a pure call. A useful study pattern is the contrast between several suited aces and K-high suited broadways that mix 4-bet/call, and suited connectors that appear only in call/fold mixes.
Broadway contrast
KQs, KJs, and KTs continue without folding and mix 4-bet with call; QJs, QTs, and JTs have no 4-bet and mix call/fold.
Pair retention
JJ and TT are call-heavy with some 4-bets, while 77 through 22 are call/fold decisions with no 4-bet.
Practice four groups in order: pure top end, 4-bet/call suited broadways, call-heavy pairs, and the low suited-ace exceptions.
