Kuhn strategy evaluator bug

2013-09-16T15:29:52+00:00

Hi, I was divulging into attempting to create an algorithm to generate a strategy for Kuhn poker based on certain elements. I wanted to see how a strategy performed against one another to see how it was improving. I believe I went wrong somewhere with my math. If the same strategy is employed against itself, it should have an EV of 0, however I'm not getting that.

I believe it has to do with my "Occurance" factor, but I'm not sure exactly what I am doing wrong with it. I get the -1/18 EV for first position, but I can't exactly verify if anything else is right unless I go ahead and code a simulator and run the two strategies against each other for a lot of hands... Can someone take a look to see where I went wrong? It's all in Excel because I wanted to confirm it worked by hand before coding it. Thanks.

Note:
You only modify your strategy and your opponents strategy, everything else is automated. C = Check\Call, F = Fold, R = Bet. A number in the strategy will imply how often it does the more aggressive move as in [Call vs Fold] or [Bet vs Check].
