The Poker Pro Who Beat The Artificial Intelligence Bot

Doug Polk is a professional poker player who's won millions of dollars, mostly at heads-up Texas Hold Em No Limit. He was part of a team that recently beat an artificial intelligence bot programmed by MIT students. When they're not at the tables collecting cash, Polk and fellow poker pro Ryan Fee run Upswing Poker, a site that offers training to everyday players who want to improve. Since so much Wall Street trading is conducted by computer programs these days, I figured he might have some wisdom about going up against AI for the few remaining humans who discretionary trade. John Navin: Like many human, discretionary traders on Wall Street, you've gone up against an artificial intelligence bot.
