tangential question - can AI/ML poker players beat the best human players in online poker?



Yes. From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_poker_player

> AI broke through to superhuman performance in poker during the 2010s, with the following timeline. In 2015, computers solved heads-up limit hold'em via Cepheus. Around 2018, Libratus demonstrated superhuman ability in heads-up no-limit hold'em. In 2019, Pluribus demonstrated superhuman ability at six-player no-limit hold'em, the most commonly played single variety of poker in the world


Apparently so, if you read the comments below.

Having never played online poker in my life and since trading bots are a thing, it makes me wonder how many people are running automatized poker bots for a side income if those are so superior to human players.


Up to six-player no-limit Hold’em poker with Pluribus.


Easily, if it's 1v1. Unclear for other formats, judging by other answers in the threads.
