Exploit Lab
Guides
Short reads on the ideas behind the drills: ranges, combos, board textures, pot odds, and how to beat each player type you'll meet at low stakes. Every number in them is worked out by the app.
The basics
- How to practiceThe one habit to build, and a 15-minute routine.
- Ranges and combosWhat a range is, counting combos, and the cards you can see.
- How a range is builtWhy 43 charts are really 14, and how to work out the rest.
- Exploitative playWhy punishing habits beats playing balanced at lower stakes.
- Board texturesEvery board label on the table, and how each card shifts ranges.
- Probability: judge decisions, not resultsPot odds, equity against a range, and judging decisions, not results.
Exploits by player type
- The NitThey fold too much, bluff only dry flops, and never bet the river light.
- The TAGA solid regular whose bets and bluffs follow the board.
- The Calling StationCalls with any pair and any draw. Get paid, don’t bluff.
- The LAGPressure on every street; the checks are where the range narrows.
- The ManiacBets everything, over the pot off dry boards; your raises sort the range.
- The Short Stacker40bb and one question on every street: is this all-in strong?
- Reading an unknown playerThe first tells, and narrowing a new player down to a type.
