6) Getting started with pokerbotting
If you are a complete newbie consider browsing and reading the Poker AI Wiki. Additionally, if you are a newbie and you have never did software programming, you should start by getting with any of the existing pokerbot platforms - OPI, OpenHoldem, WinHoldem, etc., or learning programming (or this thread about the best language to learn) or learning automation frameworks like AutoIt and AutoHotKey.
