Handconverter ready

Hi there,
nothing very new to report. The madapez started some business and that is why we are busy. Sorry for that.

Handconverter

But the handconverter is ready now. He supports Pokerstars and Betfair and looks awsome. The handling is incredible easy. So use it! ;)

AI pokers on Cebit

This post is available in english and german.

Well i thought i wouldn’t have something to tell from Cebit. So it was suprising to see Poker related stuff there. The DFKI (Deutsches Forschungszentrum für Künstliche Intelligenz GmbH) showed some AI-Poker

Pokern mit der KI

You were able to poker against Sam and Max.

Karten geben

The Dealer puts the Cards, who have an RFID-Chip, on the marks on the table. Because of the RFID-Chips both AIs know which Cards are on the table. Pokeralgorithms judge the actions and calculate the value of the hand. Depending on personality and emotional condition they act different and try to bluff.

They played Five Card Draw. The AIs were irritated from time to time and didn’t evaluate the value of their hands and didn’t realize when cards were changed.

So now theres the question if we soon have the best poker players playing against AIs. Like the chesspros play chess against AIs. Since there is no bluffing in chess and you do not always act relational, i guess this would be interesting. Coz the claims are higher i think.

Cebit wasn’t that spectecular this year. Could be because i was just hustling from booth to booth. So it was more work than enjoying the action. Its crazy to be in charge now for our IT-Infratructure and act as an representative of an company and you have to hand out business cards. Now i just need a pimped business card box!

Handconverter and Poker tools

This post is available in english and german.

The Riddlingaction was quiet a shot in the foot. But that was calculated to a big percent. Well, but at least we found out, that we have one regular reader, who also took part on that riddling action. AndyAndyAndy did not know everything, but enough to get himself 5 Dollar. I added 5 Dollar loyalty bonus, so he earned 10.

Bought a new keyboard. It was time!. It’s the Logitech Wave .

Neue Tastatur

Now i can work much relaxter on the handconverter. It supports betfair (zu 95%) and Pokerstars (99.9999%). This week we’ll put it online with a new design. From time to time we’ll add new features.

Subhead is coding some Desktoptools who will support you in tough decisions while sitting on the tables. He finished a Pot Odds Calculator, which in version 1,can do exactly what its name says: calculate Pot odds. From time to time there will be added new features. When publishing the handconverter, we’ll publish that tool as well. Would be nice to get some feedback of you guys :).

I know self-praise smells, but its right: madapez is growing

Win 20 Dollar, the week in pictures

This post is available in english and german.

 

 

No idea why, but today i’ll blog with pictures. Once before i went to Stuttgart i did it too.

This is how your desk looks like, if you work all day and spent your evenings coding the handconverter:
Garbagecatcher DESK!

And so a cat,

chilling cat

after she ran after a ball with an S printed on, that i threw across the whole appartment.

Cat with "S"-Ball

Afterwards cooked with an reciepe from my mother::

Cooking with mum

What looked like this after cooking:

After the cooking is before the dishwashing

And in the evening i read Ed Miller, David Sklansky, Mason Malmuth - Small Stakes Hold’em 

 Reading ftw!

And what i learned from the book i used (more or less) to win this hand.

Pokerstars Hold’em No Limit $0.05/$0.10 (6 handed)

CO ($10)
Button ($12.70)
SB ($8.25)
HERO ($10)
UTG ($10.30)
MP ($17.50)

Hand converted with madapez.com/handconverter

Preflop: HERO is BB with 8 9
UTG raises $0.30 to $0.40, MP folds, CO calls $0.40, Button folds, SB folds, HERO calls $0.30

Flop ($1.25): Q 6 7
HERO checks, UTG bets $1, CO raises $1 to $2, HERO calls $2, UTG raises $7.90 to $9.90 and is all-in, CO calls $7.60 and is all-in, HERO calls $7.60 and is all-in

Turn ($28.35): K

River ($28.35): T

Showdown ($28.35):
HERO shows [8 9] (a straight, Six to Ten), UTG mucks hand, CO mucks hand, HERO collected $28.55 from pot

Summary:
Total pot $30.05 | Rake $1.50
Board [Q 6 7 K T]
CO mucked [K Q]
Button (button) folded before Flop (didn’t bet)
SB (small blind) folded before Flop
HERO (big blind) showed [8 9] and won ($28.55) with a straight, Six to Ten
UTG mucked [6 6]
MP folded before Flop (didn’t bet)

 Win, Win, Win

Now, who knows what we cooked and can add the missing side, that is not seen on the picture, can win 10 dollar. Everyone can take part, except relatives of the bloggers, friends of the bloggers, or people that have been told the correct answer by someone of the bloggers. The legal process is excluded. Write your answers in the comments. Good luck!

Double UP

He who knows what we cooked and knows what the S on the Ball means, can win 20 Dollar.
