How about a situation when you have to open with JJ?
Pocket JJ OR QQ raised by hero and then reraised by villain with ???....... hero with JJ or QQ calls and then flop comes with all under cards.... What to do ?
First of all you guys are doing great work . I couldn't win money at casino when I joined your firm now I'm the best, I started with level 1 and couldn't beat It n0w I beat kgb,
in combats it would be nice to know of going account of how much we are winning at least during played
Thanks for letting us know! We're glad to hear it is working well for you.
I understand what you are saying about wanting to know how you are doing, but the point of the combat trainer is to practice a specific scenario - so building up the chips so you can track your winnings wouldn't be helpful since they are such specific scenarios. I'd recommend looking at your reports afterwards to see how you were doing on the various scenarios.
Hello APT Team! I would suggest a pocket pair combat trainer that is more randomized. Playing pocket pairs in general is an area I struggle with. It seems like whenever I donk off a stack a pocket pair is involved. Having various pocket pairs in various situations...not always flopping a set or only having JJ for example, would be helpful for me. Thanks for all you do.
Thanks for posting. You actually can already do this outside the Combat Trainer. If you go into the regular game under the game options, you can choose pocket pairs. Under the "hands to deal" option, you can choose all pocket pairs, low pocket pairs, medium pocket pairs, or high pocket pairs. I think that will accomplish what you are looking for.
The Combat Trainer is for more specific situations - like if there was something really specific about pocket pairs - for example, you get into the hand and then miss the flop. If there is something very specific about pocket pairs that is getting you, let me know and we can see about making a scenario related to it.

AK suited or unsuited, facing an All-In bet.
Excellent suggestion as well
I think a good scenario would be we hold a big pocket pair (AA,KK) which is an over pair to the board, but face a large raise from our opponent. I thin a lot of people including myself have trouble letting go of over pairs.
I agree, but if you are expecting this what clues exactly would make you know whether to fold? If you are just put in that situation without knowledge of the opponent, the previous action (which would need to be the same for a combat trainer scenario), I'm not sure what can be learned from this. I agree that people have trouble in this scenario, but I also think it is very situation dependent and this is the "critical point" already.
How about a situation where the board pairs on the flop? I've always found these to be tricky as I'm trying to figure out how it might connect with the other players ranges.
This does sound interesting potentially.
What were you thinking about for your hand and the play up to that point? The difficulty with this is the scenario of getting there needs to be realistic. The combat trainer would need to start with the board pairing, so there would need to be some type of general situation that makes this tough. It can't just be you start from the beginning of the hand because knowing the board will pair changes everything pre-flop. So most of our post-flop scenarios paint a specific difficult situation that requires a defined general setting of getting to that point.
Instead of showing their exact hand it could be better to show their perceived range. Showing hands is just too results oriented potentially.
some type of paired board trainer would be neat. Great practice for maneuvering flush draws, pocket pair, and ax holdings. Maybe every hand the board pairs by the river. It would be really sweet if we can have that and set our stack size and preflop holding. I wonder if that's practical/capable with the software.
