CO open range at 15 bb (4-max)
When you're first to act in the CO, with an effective stack of 15 bb in a 4-max tournament, the solver plays 30.2% of its hands (raise 2.00 bb 26.8%, all-in 3.4%) and folds 69.8%. These frequencies come from Exploit It's full preflop tree: a chip-EV equilibrium with antes, computed for every position at the table.
Each cell: the share of each action for that hand, left to right. Gray cell: hand not in the range at this point.
