if its 60-40 im always gonna bet just to help balance my cbetting range. 5050 becomes interesting and what ive been doing is just choosing two suits to always bet. I like the idea of a generator though and would be interested how it goes. Are you loving Pio? its kinda heaven imo

did only look at couple of spots so far but def going to be nice.
looked up some ranges i made up in flopzilla on my own yesterday.
played me vs me result was is exlpoitable for 0.01% of the pot for EP raise vs BB defend
think together with CREV and Flopzilla this is gonna be great arsenal
Would you mind posting a few screenshots of the scenario you ran?

Getting your frequencies exactly right is not going to be possible, and I think your goal when using tools like this should be to explore the general features of certain types of situations (which types of boards you bet more or less often, when you have a large check-raising range and how it's composed, which kinds of hands tend to be better for betting or checking in various situations, etc.) rather than trying to memorize or implement the exact GTO solutions to various situations. Among other things, there's going to be a margin of error simply based on the starting range you assign to your opponent, so I think trying to balance down to an exact % isn't going to be possible.
That said, yes, some sort of random number generator is the only truly random way to do it. Using suits becomes problematic because you will end up with too many or not enough flushes in some of your ranges on certain runouts, and that is definitely the sort of thing that better players will try to exploit. Likewise, defaulting to always betting because the solution says to bet 60% and check 40% is not a good solution and does not help to balance your c-betting range. In fact, it helps to unbalance both your c-betting range and more problematically your checking range. Will Tipton's Expert Heads Up NLHE is very good on the problems caused by players who default to betting with all of the hands that are indifferent between c-betting and checking and how to exploit them.

The problem isn’t that an opponent picks up on and exploits an arbitrarily chosen “bluffing suit”, it’s that the choice wont’ always be arbitrary. If your bluffs on Th Tc 2h are always hearts, then you end up with an overly strong range on heart turns. You need to have hearts (and clubs) in both your raising and calling ranges, or you are going to get into trouble on the boards where those end up being important suits.

Yeah, I mean preflop. Postflop the suits will always matter. For example, if I am constructing a limping range for a very passive tournament, I might decide to put black and red aces and kings in the limping range. Another day it might be major/minor, and the 3d day it might be pointed or round.
