Optimal Rhode Island Hold'em Poker

چکیده
Rhode Island Hold’em is a poker card game that has been proposed as a testbed for AI research. This game, with a tree size larger than 3.1 billion nodes, features many characteristics present in full-scale poker (e.g., Texas Hold’em). Our research advances in equilibrium computation have enabled us to solve for the optimal (equilibrium) strategies for this game. Some features of the equilibrium include poker techniques such as bluffing, slow-playing, check-raising, and semi-bluffing. In this demonstration, participants will compete with our optimal opponent and will experience these strategies firsthand.

متن کاملToward Legalization of Poker : The Skill vs . Chance Debate
Robert C. Hannum* Anthony N. Cabot This paper sheds light on the age-old argument as to whether poker is a game in which skill predominates over chance or vice versa. Recent work addressing the issue of skill vs. chance is reviewed. This current study considers two different scenarios to address the issue: 1) a mathematical analysis supported by computer simulations of one random player and one...
متن کاملA Heuristic-Based Approach for a Betting Strategy in Texas Hold'em Poker
Artificial intelligence research in Texas Hold’em poker has recently mainly focused on heads-up fixed limit game. Game theoretic methods used in the poker agents capable of playing at the very best level are not easily generalized to other forms of Texas Hold’em poker. In this paper we present a general approach to build a poker agent, where the betting strategy is defined by estimating the exp...
