Overview of ICM-Bot’s Game Theory

by admin on June 15, 2008

Every poker bot uses game theory in one way or another. Some simply use basic starting hand rules, while others take every detail of the game into consideration. The game theory that ICM-Bot uses is somewhat different than that of a cash game poker bot. There are certain branches of game theory that are especially useful for tournament strategy. Here are some links that explain the fundamental concepts that ICM-Bot uses to determine its decisions.

ICM (Independent Chip Model)

Nash Equilibrium

Bayes Theorem
