More bots in the news

In Response To: More bots in the news (Stick)

Is the number of positions so large in 2 player NL holdem that force cannot solve it? Once solved the computer would by definition be at least equal to any human player in a head to head matchup. No need to worry about practical strategy considerations at all, just play theoretically correctly and win at least half the matches.

More than 2 players is a lot more difficult. Playing practically to win substantually more than half is also a lot more difficult. Note that in an elimination tournament with players of varying skills a WC human player may have a better chance of winning the tournament (by altering play to win more against weaker players than the bot would do) even though it could be an underdog head to head vs the bot.
