One Card Poker
I think this game is interesting for applications to more complicated poker games.
Each player antes $1 and has over $1 billion in front of them. The button is switched back and forth each round. They are each dealt one card face down. Betting is done via a No Limit structure, with the minimum bet as $0.01. Highest card at showdown wins. To extend it further, you can rank cards by suits (to give 52 different possible hands and increase the strategy potential) or add millions of hands via a random number generator. What basic strategy would you employ? This game seems highly mathematical, so it seems like something that a bot could play against other bots for millions of hands. Maybe start with a simple strategy and discuss ways to exploit that, and so on. |

Re: One Card Poker
Would be better if everybody put their card on their foreheads so all the others players could see it and bet for that.
Forgot what they call this but played it years ago and we all about died laughing when everybody had low cards and the guy with a 2 kept betting. Anyway, to start with stategy with this game would be to figure the excat expectation for every card and bet accordingly. Then pick out how ever many cards to bluff with to raise that expectaion. Postion would be crucial here I would think. Would be fun but winning would be based on reading players and not really the card you have I would say. |

[/ QUOTE ] I believe the game was called "Indian," and there is nothing funnier on this earth than someone with a 2 or a three on his head tossing big bets in the pot. As for the original game, it sounds like heads-up poker with slightly different rules. I can't see any major implications, other than I'd be really pissed if we were a billion deep and the other guy was betting pennies. |

So for me, the bluffs will probably not exist as there is no reward, and it will probably turn into a long wait to get the nuts. Regards ... |

Re: One Card Poker
if you have the 8h+ bet the pot. if he pushes, only call with the As. If he reraises, and he's a bot, reraise any Q+, if he reraises, reraise only As and Ah. if he reraises he has the nuts. Lolz.
