CoinPoker is now fully supported: a real-time GTO coach for CoinPoker tables

1. What a CoinPoker RTA has to read

CoinPoker's client looks nothing like a GG table, which is why it needed a reader of its own rather than a setting. The felt is teal in a dark blue room. Stacks are printed in gold under a grey name, bets sit on dark pills in front of each seat, the pot is a pill above the board that already includes the bets in front of the players, and a second pill beside it shows the Splash when there is one. The dealer is a small red hexagon with a white D. The player to act has a thin light-blue timer bar under the plate, and when it is your turn the three coloured action buttons light up at the bottom right.

Every one of those is read from the pixels of the shared window, on your device, with no AI call. Amounts read in big blinds or in chips, whichever the table shows, down to the half blind. The reader knows that CoinPoker's pot already holds the live bets, so the price you are quoted to call is right on every street. It knows the chips with an amount right under the board are the collected pot and not a bet. And it reads the card faces from stored card pictures, so a hand that has been dealt once at your table size is read in milliseconds the next time.

2. Built from real tables, not a mock-up

The CoinPoker reader was built the way every reader in GTO MAX AI is built: from frames of real tables. Eleven reference frames cover the chips view and the big-blind view, preflop with four bets out, flop, turn and river, a showdown with the winner's backs still up, a splash pot, and tables at two window sizes. Each frame has a truth table of what is on it: how many board cards, which seats hold cards, which have a bet in front, where the dealer is, who is on the clock, whether it is your turn. The reader has to match all of it on every frame before a change ships.

Then the first players' sessions came in, and they taught the reader three things the reference frames had not. The seat to the left of the hero had been numbered the other way round the table, so the positions ran backwards: the small blind was being called the cut-off. The top seat's bet pill stands left of the pot, and a rule meant for the pot pill was swallowing it, so that seat's raises were invisible. And when the dealer button stood beside a plate with a long name it was being mistaken for a card back and dropped. All three are fixed, each with the player's own frame kept as a test, so they cannot come back without a test failing.

3. What you get at the table

The same two lines every GTO MAX AI user gets on every room. The GTO line is the solver's answer for the spot: the frequencies and the sizes, from a precomputed flop library and live turn and river solves. The exploit line is what changes against this opponent: a profile built from every hand you have played against them, their type, their stats, their showdown tendencies and your own notes, turned into an adjustment with its reason. On CoinPoker that profile persists across sessions by the player's screen name, so the regular in your game is known the second time you sit with them.

• Up to four CoinPoker tables at once, each in its own card, with focus following the action.
• Your cards, the board, stacks, bets, pot and button read on your device; the AI is asked only for a card picture it has never seen.
• Big blinds or chips, as your table shows them; the pot's splash counted where it belongs.
• Nothing installed and nothing reading the CoinPoker client: you share the window in Chrome, the app reads the video.

4. What to expect in the first weeks

A new reader is at its best after a few hundred hands from a few different players, because every table size, theme and edge case shows up in play rather than in a lab. If you see a read that is off, press the flag button in the app. It sends the last three minutes of your table, every frame and what the reader made of it, straight to us, and that frame becomes a test before the next release. The CoinPoker reader went from its first version to its current one on exactly those flags, in a week.

Two settings worth knowing. If your table prints amounts in chips, the app detects the blinds from the title bar, and you can set them by hand per table in the table's own settings. And if you play CoinPoker's smaller window sizes with four tables up, the card pictures for that size are learned at your table the first time each card appears, so the first orbit asks the AI more than the second.

5. Your room is not on the list?

Two answers, and both are quick. The first is in the app today: pick Any room as your site, press Mark the table, and draw each area once, your cards, the board, the pot, each seat's name, stack and bet. Then name each card design the first time it appears. From then on that room is read on your device like any supported one, with no AI at all. It takes about five minutes and the marks are saved per room.

The second is to ask. Message @GTOMAXAI on Telegram with the room's name and, if you can, a screenshot of a table. A dedicated reader, like the one CoinPoker has now, is usually a matter of days once we have a handful of frames, and the players who send them get it first. CoinPoker was added because a trial player asked for it and sent a table.

6. Where to use it

The same line we write on every page applies here. GTO MAX AI is a coaching and study tool. Use it where real-time assistance is allowed: study sessions, home games, private clubs, play money. Most online sites forbid real-time assistance in their terms, and the terms you accept in the app say so. What we build is the best read of the table and the best advice for the spot; where you run it is your call and your responsibility.

7. Try it on your CoinPoker table

Open app.gtomax.ai, start the free 30-minute trial, pick CoinPoker from the site list, share the CoinPoker window, and press Start. Your first hand should show your cards, the pot and the price to call within a second of the deal, and the GTO line and exploit line as soon as it is your turn. If it does not, flag it, and it will next week.

Already using GTO MAX AI on GGPoker or ClubGG? Nothing changes for you: CoinPoker is a new entry in the site list, and each room keeps its own reader, its own rules and its own tests, so a fix for one never moves another. See the RTA poker guide for how the readers and the advice fit together, or the blog for what changed in each release.
