Default Re: Bryce is \"In the Well\"

Hey Bryce, I've been a member (lurker) on StoxPoker for several months now and your videos are my favourite by far. I also love your video blogs.

You are from Edmonton (originally)? I thought I heard you say somewhere that you were living in BC, is that where you are now? It's interesting because I'm living in Edmonton right now (I just got married at the end of the summer and my wife and I drove across Canada from Prince Edward Island, I believe we were in Niagara Falls less than a week before you were there). I came here to do my Master's in CS at UofA to study poker bots (they use them strictly for academic purposes and not online). They've recently solved an abstraction of HU LHE (simplified but very similar) with 10^12 states in the game tree while the full-scale HU LHE game tree has 10^18 states.

Have you heard of their bots and/or played against them? What are your thoughts on this research? Are you for it, against it, or neither?
