Holdem Bot Profiles

Wild Bill Profile Details

Wild Bill starts off wild, with a wide pushing range (especially in cash games), which tends to have the effect of getting your opponents into a loose-calling mood. Then once you have them loosened up, Bill siphons off their stacks.

• Tightens up with a stack of 150+ big blinds. Your opponents don’t realize this! So if you start with 50 BB’s as recommended, after you triple up it then only pushes with quality - but continues to get loose calls from your opponents who have seen all the earlier wild play. I have seen Wild Bill reach stack sizes of 450+ quite often in cash games, still getting ridiculously loose calls for entire stacks from opponents who are acting on the wider small-stack pushing range. 

• Tighter tournament play. Many code lines include a bigblindsize > 10 stipulation which makes it less wild in tournaments. 

• No preflop min-raising. All preflop open-raises are either by 2 BB’s (making it 3 total) or flat-out pushes. 

• Flop Continuation-betting is 70% x 75%. That is, 70% of the pot and done 75% of the time randomly. However this is the remaining 75% of the time that it does not push on the flop, which it does with most good flopped hands and quality draws. With very strong flopped hands it will also sometimes bet 75% of the pot as a trap. 

• Self-contained Preflop and Flop code. The Turn and River betting rounds are Doodle Tweaks and thus need the default cash profile (that comes standard in the bot) in the background. There is no need for tournament code lines as this profile has them included. 

• Usersteal and Userdefend user-variables for combat situations. By identifying our own preflop late-position stealing situations, and defense situations against late-position stealers, we then play better combat post-flop. By incorporating these user-defined variables, Wild Bill will do things like: 

   * Float smallish c-bets on the flop (with any hand) from preflop late-position stealers, and then bet the Turn or River when they check

   * Reraise all-in on the flop randomly 30% of the time (with any hand) when we ourselves are the preflop late-position stealer and our flop C-bet gets raised by a not-huge amount (except when stacksize > 150 or bigblindsize > 10)

   * Occasionally push on the flop (with any hand) from preflop late-position stealers when they make a flop C-bet on non-scary boards (except when stacksize > 150 or bigblindsize > 10)
