Finishes: Colors & Stains
Slumbot is one of the top no-limit poker bots in the world. The 2024 version of Slumbot placed second in ☀️ the Annual Computer Poker Competition, the premier event for poker software.
The baseline statistics compare how you did to how Slumbot ☀️ would have done with your cards in your seat. A positive value for baseline earnings mean you did better than ☀️ Slumbot would have done against itself given your cards and sitting in your seat.
Here's an example with a single hand. ☀️ First Slumbot deals out cards for the board (let's say AhTd4c9s3h), the button (let's say AdKh) and the big blind ☀️ (let's say TsTc). Then Slumbot plays itself on these cards. Let's say that the players get all-in (since they both ☀️ have strong hands). So the result is -20,000 for the button.
Now you get to play Slumbot on these same cards. ☀️ Let's suppose you're the button. Perhaps you put in 8,000 chips on the early streets but manage to fold to ☀️ a large bet on the river. Your outcome is -8,000 for this hand.
Your baseline outcome is how much better (or ☀️ worse) you did than Slumbot did against itself. Your baseline outcome here is +12,000 which is the difference between -8,000 ☀️ and -20,000.
