Play the Cardle Everyday in Lucid Poker

How It Works

Each Cardle is a themed set of five poker hands, handpicked by a pro and run through a solver. Every situation shares a common spot type, so the feedback across all five hands reinforces the same concept.

After each decision, Lucid reveals whether you were right, explains the solver reasoning in plain language, and gives you the option to go deeper with a more detailed coaching explanation. At the end of the five hands, you see your overall score and can review every decision from the summary screen.

Step by Step

Here is how to play through a Cardle quiz from start to finish:

1. 1
   Open the Cardle

   Tap the purple Play Today's Cardle button on the home screen, or tap the Cardle icon in the main navigation.
2. 2
   Read the scenario

   Each hand shows you the position, stack depth, pot size, board texture, and the action leading up to your decision. Take a moment to think through the spot before committing.
3. 3
   Make your decision

   Select an action from the options provided. Your choice is locked in as soon as you submit, so treat it like a real hand.
4. 4
   Read the feedback

   Lucid immediately shows whether your decision was correct and provides a written explanation from the coaching team. Tap Tell Me More if you want a deeper breakdown of the spot.
5. 5
   Continue through all five hands

   Tap Play Next Hand to move on. Each hand in the set follows the same spot theme, so you will notice patterns build as you go.
6. 6
   Review and share your results

   Tap Finish Cardle after the final hand. Your overall score appears, and you can revisit every hand from the Cardle summary screen. A share option is coming soon so you can send your results to friends and other players.

Reviewing Your Cardle

The Cardle summary screen shows all five hands from the session. For each one, you can:

• Re-read the coaching explanation for any hand you want to revisit
• Tap Study in Sim Browser to open the full solver node and explore the game tree at a high level
• Tap Try Again to replay the Cardle. Keep in mind that your initial score is locked in permanently, even if you replay.

Understanding the Feedback

After each decision, Lucid shows two levels of explanation:

• Quick hit: A short summary of the correct action and why. Useful if you already understand the concept and just want to confirm or correct your read.
• Tell Me More: A deeper coaching explanation that covers the reasoning behind the solver decision, including factors like position, bet sizing, and equity considerations.
