If you are still using PLO ranges from 2024, you aren’t just stagnant; you are actively falling behind.
The Pot Limit Omaha landscape shifts fast. New sites launch with unique structures, and player pools develop leaks that standard GTO charts simply don’t punish hard enough.
The PLO training site PLO Mastermind has just released a massive update to their GTO solver PLO Trainer, directly addressing these two issues. The update features for CoinPoker and dedicated preflop ranges for the new ClubWPT Gold sweepstakes model, and introduces high-precision “Node-Locked” exploitative solutions designed to crush wide callers.
Here is why this update matters and how you can use it to print EV.
The “Exploitative” Update: Punishing the Wide Caller
For years, the gold standard in PLO study was the “Nash Equilibrium” (GTO). The logic was simple: play unexploitable poker, and you win.
But there is a problem. GTO assumes your opponent folds, calls, and raises at perfect frequencies. In reality, especially at low-to-mid stakes, opponents call way too much.
The new PLO Trainer update adds specific Node-Locked simulations to solve this exact problem.
- The Scenario: SRP OOP 100bb vs Wide Preflop Caller (CO vs BTN).
- The Adjustment: You can now study spots where the Button flats your open 30%, 40%, 50%, or even 75% of the time.
Why This is Huge
If the Button is calling 75% of hands preflop, their range is incredibly diluted with trash. A standard PLO solver doesn’t know this; it assumes they have a tight, strong range.
With these new sims, the PLO Trainer shows you exactly how to adjust:
- C-Betting Frequency: You will likely see that you can c-bet way more aggressively on certain textures because their range can’t withstand pressure.
- Double Barrel Lines: You’ll learn which runouts allow you to keep firing against a capped, weak range.
This moves your study from “playing correctly” to “maximizing profit against fish.”
ClubWPT Gold & CoinPoker: Site-Specific Ranges
One size does not fit all in PLO. Using a range designed for “GG 50Rake” on a sweepstakes site with a different structure is a leak.
ClubWPT Gold has entered the market with a unique sweepstakes model. Often, these sites feature different ante/rake structures that fundamentally alter the math of opening hands.
- The Update: PLO Mastermind has added solved preflop ranges specifically for ClubWPT Gold.
- The Edge: On a new site, the population usually has no idea what they are doing. Having solved charts on Day 1 gives you a massive unfair advantage while the regs are still guessing.
CoinPoker Support: The update also explicitly addresses CoinPoker games. Given the high action and crypto-native player pool on CoinPoker, having 4-Max ranges tailored to this environment is critical.
Is the PLO Mastermind Trainer the Best Tool?
We have reviewed almost every tool on the market in our guide to the best PLO solver.
The PLO Trainer stands out for two reasons: Speed and Accessibility. Unlike MonkerSolver, which requires a supercomputer and hours of runtime, the PLO Trainer runs directly in your browser. With this update, it cements itself as the most versatile tool for grinders who play on modern, softer sites like ClubWPT or CoinPoker.
Verdict: If you are serious about moving up from low stakes, you need tools that help you exploit bad players, not just mimic GTO bots. This update delivers exactly that.
Conclusion
This update bridges the gap between theory and reality.
By adding ClubWPT Gold ranges, PLO Mastermind proves they are keeping up with the industry’s newest soft spots. But the real gem is the Exploitative Node-Locking. Learning how to dismantle a 75% caller is infinitely more profitable for your bankroll than perfecting your play against a GTO bot.
Tools are only as good as the work you put in. The sims are live. Now it’s up to you to study them.
