Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

You don't want to become a slave to the sim, as I say, right?

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

There's one kid I know, I joked with him.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

His name is Landon Tice.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

And he made a play that the sim would say, this is a good play.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

But I'm like, it's a good play in a simulated world against the robot.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

It's not in practice against the human, right?

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

You don't need to be doing that.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

So if you become a slave to the sim and always do what the sim says, you're handcuffed to a certain degree.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

Absolutely.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

No human being plays perfectly balanced in game three optimal like a robot would.

#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

You know, for example...

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

Say most human beings don't bluff enough in a certain spot.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

So you don't have to call with the correct range of hands.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

You don't have to because they're not bluffing at the optimal frequency.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

So you don't have to call at the optimal frequency.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

You'd be making a mistake, frankly, if you did.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

Yeah, well, online poker and live poker, it's the same game, right?
