Quote:

To tackle the tougher no-limit version, Claudico was built using algorithms that analyzed the basic rules of poker to devise a winning strategy, rather than try to encode the tricks and strategies of human experts. “Claudico” is Latin for “limp.” In poker, limping means to get into a hand by calling, rather than raising or folding. Humans generally dismiss limping as bad strategy, but Claudico embraces it.

“The pros may find that playing Claudico is like playing a Martian,” said Sandholm, noting limping is just one of the ways the computer differs from human players.

Bot confirmed fish.

The current interface is annoying and it's definitely not a neutral platform. It's noisy in the middle of a casino where people constantly addresses the players. On top of that the bot freezes from time to time. On the flipside dong and wcg are talking to eachother and exchange a bit of info. From what I've seen so far I'm not impressed by he bot.

The streams look pretty good though, just need to solve the audio issues.

It's interesting that even though its not a neural net bot like those we find online, it plays very similar to the bots you will find playing HU up to 1/2nl on most sites.

The donk into him strat that they found and then check down is the same as the current HU bots. They go nutso when you donk flop with value.

Whilst I don't doubt that they are brilliant poker players. WCG, Donger Kim, Jason Les and Bjorn Li representing humanity in a battle against machines just doesn't seem right.
