[Pokersource-users] Creating a Custom Poker Bot

[Chris S. <chr...@gm...>]

Hi,

What would be the general steps for creating a custom poker bot? I'd
like to implement different strategies as separate bots and play them
against each other, preferably all from a single file for quick
evaluation. However, the pokerbot code seems designed from a
server/client perspective.

I've installed all the basic library components, but it seems there's
essentially no documentation, even in the source. As far as I can
tell, pokerbot.py runs a bot as it's own Twisted web server, while
pokerbotlogic.py contains the actual strategy as one giant if/else
statement.

Would it be practical to strip out all the server/client overhead from
pokerbot in order to get it to run as a single script, or would it be
better to re-implement my poker bot from scratch using the pokerengine
package?

Regards,
Chris
