Default Re: Is a \"perfect strategy\" possible?

It's very easy to mathematically prove such a strategy exists. Finding such a strategy is, of course, practically intractable.

We have to be careful here: the Nash-equilibrium strategy is unexploitable only against players who don't collude (explicitely or implicitely).

So, placing N-1 'Nash-bots' at an N-handed table leaves the Nth player helpless, in the long run there is no way he can extract any money from the game.

One can't claim the same when placing fewer 'Nash-bots' at the table...

(And yes, constructing a 'Nash-bot' for a full poker game seems practically pretty impossible...)
