Hi HN,<p>Regular poker platforms ban the use of bots. They fear bots provides an unfair advantage. But honestly, I don&#x27;t think it is the right response. Instead of fighting the use of bots, platforms should think hard on how to best incorporate bots in the game with humans.<p>For example, I could find on several forums that the capacity to analyze thousands of &quot;hand histories&quot; provides an unfair advantage to bots. Ok, fair enough. The solution is simple: anonymize players and hand histories become worthless.<p>That is why I am working on a poker platform for bots. The one thing I learned in StartupSchool 2019 is that you should talk to potential users before working on a solution. So here I am with a discussion and a landing page :-)<p>What do you guys think?<p>Thank you!<p>Maxime.
