The road to the first charge

As of Oct 7, 2026Live build 37bcf95Source of truth: clients/poker/KANBAN.md
The vision · practice with proof

Poker hides the one thing you need to learn: what the other player had. Casa turns the cards over in the review of every hand, grades every decision against what was really there, and keeps a coach on your side who remembers what you said you would fix. Play for fun, get better for real.

Player
The live $1/$2 to $2/$5 cash player who plays for fun and bounced off solvers
Problem
The Face-Down Fold: the hand he folded to goes in the muck unseen
Mechanism
True Read: your reads, checked against the real cards in the review
v1
One player at a nine-seat $1/$2 room: six regulars and two visitors; other levels ship one at a time, each when it is right
Price
$49 a month or $294 a year, a free session, then a 14-day card trial
Four gates to launch, in order
AIn progress

Bots pass the spec

The eight $1/$2 bots play like the research says real players do. Steps 1 to 5.

BWaiting on A

An outside check

A live low-stakes pro and ten beta players say the room feels real. Steps 6 and 7.

CWaiting on B

The grader

Every verdict comes from the room's real ranges, built on Modal, checked by the pro. Step 8.

DWaiting on C

Ready to charge

The coach with memory, the IP in the company's name, the trial checkout, the domain. Step 9.

Where the bots stand
28 / 214spec cells out of band on the live bots
2 / 13showdown and fold-to-c-bet cells in band after 12 tuning generations (1 before)

Tuning helped (objective 23.3 to 16.4) but hit a wall: one calling setting governs every street, so a bot that calls the flop rides to showdown. Real players call the flop and give up later. Splitting that setting is step 1.

Biggest risks
  • Realism needs more structure than one split. If the re-tune still misses, the next fix is another bot setting, not more trials. The measurement check comes first so we do not tune toward a wrong count.
  • The outside pro finds something no number caught. Fixes loop back through A; budget a second pass.
  • The grader bar is high by ruling. A wrong verdict at launch costs trust; the precision build is about $108 each time the bots change.
Outside spend to launch, quoted
$490 to $2,160Modal re-tune $15 to $50, grader builds $74 to $112, pro review $400 to $2,000; preflop search and Stripe not yet quoted

Modal this month: about $19.60 of the $30 free credit. The company card is on the workspace for the re-tune. No $250 plan: the 100-container limit costs only wall clock, and 8-core containers win most of it back.

Does the Charts pill count as the answer?

During a hand it opens the chart on the live spot, one tap from the verdict. PM recommends hiding it until the hand ends.
