$200K to the winner side is pretty big. Is Carnegie Mellon putting up money on this or where is it coming from?

how many buyins/big blinds must either side be positive after 120k hands for the results to be statistically significant?

i know this was a point of disagreement during the last challenge between polk and sandholm

Considering that Les was the only human that lost money last time...

If this is a battle between man vs machine I want only the top 4 representing humanity. This is like the US sending only college basketball players to the Olympics -- not our best and if they lose what does it really prove for the researchers about their program?

Doug Polk, chime in!

If the humans lose and I were Doug, I'd offer to put together an all star squad and request something like $250k if lose $1m if win on an ultimate final showdown.

All that said, its not like its scrub nubs playing. The line up they have there is super duper solid.

My prediction is that the humans will win, if for no reason other than this recent paper that shows that the exploitability of the best programs is significantly higher than always folding.

That said, I don't want to steal the thunder from this event, and am very excited to see it unfold.
