AI Coach · Range interpretation
How to interpret this BTN vs MP range
Against an MP open, this BTN preset combines a pure 3-bet premium core with mixed calls and 3-bets among selected suited broadways and pocket pairs.
The grid shows AQs through ATs, KQs through KTs, QJs, and JTs continuing with 3-bet/call mixes, while lower suited connectors shown here mostly fold. Pocket pairs form a clear split: TT through 66 include 3-bets, whereas 55 through 22 only mix call and fold.
Pair structure
TT, 99, 88, 77, and 66 mix 3-bet and call without folding. In contrast, 55, 44, 33, and 22 mix only call and fold.
Suited ace contrast
AQs, AJs, and ATs continue without folding, while A9s and A5s include folding. A5s is the only displayed suited ace here using all three actions.
Drill three groups from the grid: pure 3-bets, 3-bet/call pairs from TT through 66, and call/fold pairs from 55 through 22; then recite the four boundary-hand mixes.
