Default Re: Bots and the future of online poker

My point is this: programs aren't magic, if you can say what you want the program to do, then you can program it. But the problem is, you can not say what you want it to do. When you start to get specific, you will find that you have problems.

QFT. All you guys who think writing poker bots are easy, go ahead and try to write down how you play a hand of poker, with the restriction that you cannot include any steps which involve intuition. You can use any piece of data you like, but any single fact that was not given to you as a piece of specific information or was computed in a previous step is off-limits.

Once you do that, hey, there's your poker bot! Go forth and rob our monies!
