You're suggesting that the bots are based on true AI and have taught themselves NLHE? That's technically feasible I guess.
However using brute force decision trees and strategy approximations is going to be an
infinitely easier task than writing AI, even if 100bb MSNL is a fairly large task to automate correctly.
Maybe I'm wrong but I rate myself as a very experienced coder (though I've never written poker programs) and I just can't see AI being faster/easier than just pre-defined strategies.
I guess it's possible that you could write evaluation routines to decide best strategies (like stoxev or pokerazor) but still the programmer needs to be at least a very very solid player to begin with.
