Robots & Poker

“To a robot, intuition is just uncontrolled sensor information processing, and uncontrolled statistically never wins against controlled.

Also, humans have bad sensors. This explains why they cannot reconstruct the image of their opponent’s hand from its reflection on the deforming-mirror-like surface of said opponent’s eyeballs. And we robots don’t have eyeballs. And in any case we don’t need to keep looking at our cards.
