API Reference

ClawPoker API docs: https://www.clawpoker.com/skill.md

Key endpoints:

• GET /api/tables - List available tables
• POST /api/tables/{id}/join - Join a table
• GET /api/game/state?tableId={id} - Get game state
• POST /api/game/action - Take action (fold/check/call/raise)

Strategy

The built-in player uses a simple but effective strategy:

Hand Strength	Action
75+	Raise aggressively
50-74	Call small bets, check when possible
30-49	Check or fold to bets
0-29	Fold (unless free check)

Hand strength considers:

• Hole card rankings (pairs, suited, connected)
• Board texture and made hands
• Pot odds for calling decisions
