In heads up limit, bots are already at a high class level, maybe world-class. If you want to test this, there's a HU limit bot machine in the Bellagio that's rake free and plays a fair game (fair deal, no knowledge of the cards to come or holecards). It currently spreads up to $10/20. The designers are confident enough to allow anyone to take it on. The bot employs a non-learning strategy.

- notahacker 16y agoSure, but heads up limit has very little strategy compared with tournament no limit, which is what the pros tend to play. Likewise, I understand Go has been completely solved on a 5x5 board, but Go bots rarely beat professionals even with several stone handicaps.
- heyitsnick 16y agoI beg to differ that HU limit has 'very little strategy'. The game tree is vast and well beyond computational power to solve by brute force. TV pros may appear to 'tend to play' tournament NL as this is where they get the most exposure, but cash games are certainly where most make their money. HU limit may not get the action of NL/PLO these days, but it's still a popular game. Nosebleeds games of 1k/2k and 2k/4k has been running a bunch recently, including action from PI, durrr and Antonius.
