Yes. Let's look at ace-2 offsuit, for example. The table says 37/42 (with the 37 on top). That means if you're the small blind, bet if the smaller stick is 37 or less. If you're the big blind, then bet if the small stack is 42 or less.
I enjoyed playing this and might play more. I wasn't a good candidate for enjoying the 'chatter', but did ... up until the point it's clear it will just repeat

It's proper tournament strategy (correct me if I'm wrong) to go all-in with anything if your stack is really small. Otherwise, the blinds eat you up.
I agree that the list of jokes is too short.
Hart Race Hold 'em .
1.77 is what the game claims [0.9823 return upthread] I believe this means you are in slight disagreement?
I played the game on a promotion, and it plays really slow for my taste. I won a tournament for $1280 and I hope no W-2G was issued.Quote: WizardQuote: odiousgambitif I understand it right, the advice to bet or fold says if the smaller of the two stacks is that number, or lower, bet ... so it doesn't matter who's chips fit the bill, it's time to bet ... interesting

There are a lot of moving parts to getting this EV correct. One nuance is that you cannot assume the player plays every Ax, so the probability of Kevin cracking your Aces full is not the same as the probability of you being dealt a boat that would end up getting beat. The same is true for quad deuces, too.
The Markov chain has a very small number of transitions, so I am going to assume a high probability that the strategy table is correct.
Get about 3 shit hands right away. 1st hand is 7-2 off, then 8-4 off, and 7-3 off, all were mucked.
Then I get a few playable hands. Lose with some Jack High and Queen High hands, fine it happens, then the real shady shit starts!
1) K-4 vs 'Kevin' with Q-6. I catch a 4 on the flop, no flush draws, river comes up a Queen! Sure fine...
2) K-8 vs 'Kevin with J-9. Flop comes up 6-6-4, another 4 on the turn... Ace on the river... Push... Riiiight.
3) A-K offsuit vs 'Kevin' with 3-4 off, Flop comes up 5 -6 7... Yea, definitely NOT rigged... Lol!
Only lost $30 or so, not a big deal. It's just the miracle Rivers and Amazing "luck" of the Kev Bot seems to be in full Kill mode.
