Curious if we'll see human poker pros get much better in the coming years as they incorporate training regimens that involve bots (analogous to chess today vs. 50 years ago). Seems like this will be the trend in almost every game.
- TylerE 7y agoAs someone who plays both games....I doubt it. Poker is an incomplete information game with crushingly high variance. The bots strategy is likely not quantifiable.
- gringoDan 7y agoCan you expand on this? I'm a novice at both games, but the Facebook blog post mentioned that the bot exhibited some unconventional strategies: > Pluribus disagrees with the folk wisdom that donk betting (starting a round by betting when one ended the previous betting round with a call) is a mistake; Pluribus does this far more often than professional humans do. Is it overly simplistic to think that humans could improve their game by incorporating some strategies like this more/less often than they were previously?
- TheChosenZygote 7y agoBots have already influenced the poker meta. Libratus showed us how it was optimal to sometimes overbet bluff when you have nut blocker(s). I'm sure when these poker pros do hand reviews, they're not looking at how they can exploit Pluribus, but moreso how they can incorporate some of the lines/strategies it used to beat everyone else.
