While reading this I started thinking about how interesting it would be would be to see an AI vs AI poker tournament.
Does such a thing exist? Some preliminary searches didn't bring much up apart from one-off experiments. [EDIT found a recent article about this https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/time-to-fold-humans-poker-playing-ai-beats-pros-at-texas-hold-rsquo-em/ https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/time-to-fold-huma... which talks about http://www.computerpokercompetition.org/ http://www.computerpokercompetition.org/]
Another interesting one would be a table of 8 players. Half AI half professionals but no one knows who is who.
- Wingman4l7 9y agoThe poker competition you linked to is really more academics-oriented, and last time I checked, was consistently won by the University of Alberta. For a more "real-world" example -- AIs that were actually used in live online poker environments, competing against each other -- there was only one that I know of. It was hosted by the creator of the (apparently now defunct) WinHoldEm software, Ray E. Bornert II. It never ran again, only a small handful of the more experienced bot authors attended, and turnout was poor, with the highest max buy in at $100 ( http://robopoker.blogspot.com/2007/12/pokerbot-world-championship-cruise.html http://robopoker.blogspot.com/2007/12/pokerbot-world-champio...). It was called the 2007 Poker Bot World Championship (PBWC).
