Message: [QUOTE="Dreadstunlock, post: 7203051, member: 1055624"] Another example that I used where I actually had doubts and thoughts. [ATTACH type="full"]393906[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]393907[/ATTACH] ChatGPT output: [HEADING=2]Hand review — J♠T♦ on [B]A♣ Q♠ 8♣ Q♣ K♠[/B] 🧠[/HEADING] [HEADING=2]TL;DR (grade)[/HEADING] [LIST] [*][B]Preflop:[/B] fine, cheap defend. ✅ [*][B]Flop:[/B] standard peel with gutshot + backdoors. ✅ [*][B]Turn:[/B] fold is [B]good[/B]—your draw is weak and expensive. ✅ [*][B]River straight would have lost often[/B] vs flushes/full houses, so folding wasn’t a mistake. [/LIST] [B]Overall: B+ — disciplined fold, don’t feel bad.[/B] [HR][/HR] [HEADING=2]Street-by-street[/HEADING] [HEADING=3]Preflop[/HEADING] [LIST] [*]You called [B]JTo[/B] vs MP limp. [*][B]BB call is fine[/B] (great odds, hand has connectivity). ✅ [/LIST] [HR][/HR] [HEADING=3]Flop — [B]A♣ Q♠ 8♣[/B] (pot 6bb)[/HEADING] Villain bets 4bb, you call. [LIST] [*][B]Your equity:[/B] you have a gutshot to the nuts (K). Also two backdoors (runner-runner straight/flush). [*][B]Pot odds:[/B] you’re calling 4 to win 10 (≈29%). Your outs (K=4 outs ≈ 8%) aren’t enough on their own, but implied odds (if K hits you often stack them) justify the peel. [*][B]Correct:[/B] ✅ call once, but folding wouldn’t be terrible if villain is tight. [/LIST] [HR][/HR] [HEADING=3]Turn — [B]Q♣[/B] (pot 14bb)[/HEADING] Villain bets 8bb, you fold. [LIST] [*][B]Board texture:[/B] [LIST] [*]Flush completes (third club). [*]Trips on board (Q). [*]Your gutshot still only has 4 outs to the nut straight, and even that straight can lose vs flush or full house. [/LIST] [*][B]Math:[/B] you need ~29% equity. You have ≈9% (4 outs to K, and some are dead vs flush). [*][B]Verdict:[/B] folding is 100% correct. ✅ [/LIST] [HR][/HR] [HEADING=3]River — [B]K♠[/B] (pot 14bb if you had called)[/HEADING] [LIST] [*]You would have hit the straight, but: [LIST] [*]Flushes already got there on the turn. [*]Full houses possible (Qx, AQ, 88). [*]Even when ahead, it’s hard to realize value because villain bets, and you’re never sure if you’re good. [/LIST] [*][B]So folding turn saved you from a -EV spot.[/B] [/LIST] [HR][/HR] [HEADING=2]Lessons learned ✍️[/HEADING] [LIST] [*][B]Flop call is fine[/B] with implied odds, but don’t marry your hand. [*][B]Turn fold is strong discipline[/B]—don’t regret missing the “what if” straight. [*][B]River K would have been dangerous anyway.[/B] Not a guaranteed winner. [/LIST] [HR][/HR] 👉 This was played correctly. You didn’t overextend—[B]calling flop was the limit, folding turn is exactly what a disciplined grinder does.[/B] [ATTACH type="full"]393908[/ATTACH] Hope it helps on your journey and give you more clarity.
