This Poker Forum is Ghost Town on Covers. I wanted to help with free materials, tutoring, coaching, etc... No Hidden costs. I use to teach every game, from cash to tournaments and my favorite of all... heads-up cash poker. I use to take a beginner and after a few weeks they would be playing Limit-Hold'em heads-up against the very best players. I even helped modify the A.I. bot they have at Univ of Alberta CA. It started out over a decade ago and then made some real advances in 2004 where it started adjusting faster. That's the key playing against a bot (or anyone), predictability. It's to the point now with so many players adding to it that it now can go heads-up with the top players in the world in limit hold'em and win. The simple fact is once it gets it's adjustment time faster, it has many advatages.
What are the advantages a poker-bot has?
1)Calculations:It can calculate odds with percision everytime.
2)Memory:It can memorize every hand it has ever played and recall it to use if needed
3)Emotion: Do you Tilt? Get intimdated? Get bored or over excited?
4)Fatigue:Do you get tired or sleepy?
5)Etc-Many of these types of advantages can be grueling.
The fact is for now poker-bots have to beat humans in limit poker.
The reason is simple- The less mistakes a computer can make, the better it will do.
If you added No-Limit in the human vs bot, the human would win easily.
Not only knowing when to bet, call, fold or raise, now it must know the proper amount and increment to bet, raise or call. Before the bot had only eight options it could make a mistake on.
It must also consider implied odds, which is more a creative art than a science.
