Evaluation of agent performance in Leduc Hold'em focusing on opponent exploitation, using metrics like Model EV, GTO EV, and Gain, based on a held-out test set configuration of 3,000 hands across 3 trials with paired seeds.

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.

| Scope | Recorded value |
| --- | --- |
| Task | Opponent Exploitation |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | Leduc Hold'em 3,000 hands × 3 trials, paired seeds (Held-out) |
| Metric | Gain |
| Unit | SCALAR |
| Direction | Higher is better |
| Results loaded | 14 of 14 |
| Coverage | All results currently returned for this benchmark |

Evaluation settings may differ between results. The original papers and recorded configurations are needed to establish comparability. A shared metric name alone does not establish an identical protocol.

## Metrics

- [Gain](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/opponent-exploitation-on-leduc-hold-em-3k-hands-paired-seeds-held-out.md?metric=Gain>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [Model EV](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/opponent-exploitation-on-leduc-hold-em-3k-hands-paired-seeds-held-out.md?metric=Model%20EV>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [GTO EV](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/opponent-exploitation-on-leduc-hold-em-3k-hands-paired-seeds-held-out.md?metric=GTO%20EV>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [95% CI](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/opponent-exploitation-on-leduc-hold-em-3k-hands-paired-seeds-held-out.md?metric=95%25%20CI>): Lower is better; unit: SCALAR.
