They were like, we're all going to work as a team to try to take down this bot.
And so they immediately started comparing notes.
What they would do
is they would coordinate looking at different parts of the strategy to try to find out weaknesses.
And then at the end of the day, we actually sent them a log of all the hands that were played and what cards the bot had on each of those hands.
Yeah, it was honestly, and I'm not sure why we did that in retrospect, but, um, I mean, I'm glad we did it cause we ended up winning anyway, but that if, if you've ever played poker before, like that is golden information.
I mean, to know, usually when you play poker, you see about a third of the hands to show down, um, and to just hand them all the cards that the bot had on every single hand, um,
That was just a goldmine for them.
And so then they would review the hands and try to see like, okay, could they find patterns in the bot, the weaknesses?
And could they, then they would coordinate and study together and try to figure out, okay, now this person's going to explore this part of the strategy for weaknesses.
This person's going to explore this part of the strategy for weaknesses.
Yeah.

I wasn't super confident.
So going in, like I said, I think I had like 50-50 odds on us winning.
Actually, when we announced the competition, the poker community decided to gamble on who would win.
And their initial odds against us were like four to one.
They were really convinced that the humans were going to pull out a win.
The bot ended up winning for three days straight.
And even then, after three days, the betting odds were still just 50-50.
