THE TRAINER

It does not say “right” or “wrong”. It says how much EV you gave up.

Every hand is compared to the solver on the same scale chess uses. A marginal call that costs 0.02bb is not the same mistake as a shove that costs 1.4bb — and the trainer does not score them alike.

Send a screenshot of a hand you played. The bot reads the table, you check it, and the solution for that spot lands in your DMs.

  • Before calculating, it tells you if the library already has a similar spot
  • Everything the bot replies is private: the channel only sees your screenshot
  • The solution opens in the same viewer as the site
