Hey guys - in Texas Hold’em poker, the first round of betting before any community cards are dealt is called preflop, and depending on our position and the action facing us, there is a different range of hands we choose to play. If I give a preselected list of possible 2-player scenarios, and for each scenario a range of possible hands that we arrive there with, can I build a very primitive software that would help me put in practice reps by randomly picking 1 scenario from the list I provide, and then randomly assign a hand to me from the preselected list, making myself choose between 3 options - call, fold or raise? How easy/tough is this?
My programming background is some very basic coding that I learnt in my 11th and 12th grade, using C++. Or is this even something that I could figure out using ChatGPT? The idea just occured to me now.
Hi @MDArshaq , welcome to the forums! If you were wondering, this can be done simply in Python.
May I first know what are the scenarios, what ‘call’, ‘fold’, or ‘raise’ mean?
Hi @NateDhaliwal. I actually managed to build what I wanted using ChatGPT haha. As for your question - the scenarios are many 2-player pairs, where you are playing the hand from the POV of one of the players, and a certain action for the other player has already been defined. Call, fold and raise are poker terms - call means matching the other player’s bet, raise means reraising the other player’s bet, and fold means letting go of your hand, which ends the hand right there.
