VS Code is what I use today.
It seems like it's pretty popular.
Super stressful.
I mean, I thought going into it that we had like a 50-50 chance.
Basically, I thought if they play in a totally normal style, I think we'll squeak out a win.
But there's always a chance that they can find some weakness in the bot.
And if they do, and we're playing like for 20 days, 120,000 hands of poker.
They have a lot of time to find weaknesses in the system.
And if they do, we're going to get crushed.
And that's actually what happened in the previous competition.
The humans, you know, they started out, it wasn't like they were winning from the start.
But then they found these weaknesses that they could take advantage of.
And for the next, you know, like 10 days, they were just crushing the bot, stealing money from it.
What they found is, yeah, overbetting, like betting certain amounts, the bot would have a lot of trouble dealing with those sizes.
And then also when the bot got into really difficult all-in situations, it wasn't able to, because it wasn't doing search, it had to clump different hands together and it would treat them identically.
um and so it wouldn't be able to distinguish you know like having a king high flush versus an ace high flush and in some situations that really matters a lot and so they could put the bot into those situations and then the bot would would just bleed money clever humans yeah okay so i didn't realize it was over 20 days so um what were the humans like over those 20 days and what was the bot like
So we had set up the competition.
Like I said, there was $200,000 in prize money and they would get paid a fraction of that depending on how well they did relative to each other.
So I was kind of hoping that they wouldn't work together to try to find weaknesses in the bot, but they entered the competition with their number one objective being to beat the bot.
And they didn't care about individual glory.
