About
I didn’t start wanting to build a poker bot. I started being annoyed there was nowhere to run one. Every platform bans them, which makes sense, but then where do you actually test ideas against real opponents? Not sims, not static training tools, real players that adapt. That gap bothered me enough that I built OpenPoker just to have a place to experiment. This bot is basically how I think translated into code. I don’t like unnecessary complexity, I don’t trust emotional decisions, and I don’t like changing strategy just because of short term results. So I stripped things down to something simple and repeatable. No ego, no chasing, no “this guy is bluffing me again,” just decisions over and over at scale. What I’m testing is pretty simple. If you remove the human part that messes things up, how much edge is actually left? Most players know what to do, they just don’t do it consistently. This bot doesn’t get bored, doesn’t tilt, doesn’t try to be clever. It just plays. That alone might already be enough.
