What is a spot?

A spot is a specific poker situation within a strategy. It represents one node in the preflop decision tree — a combination of position, action, and context that determines which hands you should play and how. For example, “UTG open raise in a 6-max cash game at 100bb” is a spot. “BTN facing a CO open raise — 3-bet range” is another spot. Each spot contains a range — the 13×13 hand grid showing which hands you play and what action you take with each one.

Spot properties

​
Spots in the decision tree

Spots are organized as a decision tree inside each strategy, not as flat files in a folder. This mirrors how poker decisions actually work — each decision leads to the next possible decision.

​
Subranges (child spots)

A spot can have child spots that represent the continuation of the decision. For example:
  • You create a spot for “CO Open Raise”
  • Under that, you add child spots for “BTN 3-Bet → 4-Bet”, “BTN 3-Bet → Call”, and “BTN 3-Bet → Fold”
This parent-child relationship keeps your strategy organized and easy to navigate.

Spot limits by plan

Mastery tracking

Each spot has a mastery level from 0 to 4 that reflects how well you know it based on your training history: Mastery badges appear on each spot in the strategy tree so you can see your progress at a glance.
