Advisor: Dr. Chris Pollett
Description:
Dou Di Zhu is a famous poker game in China. This poker game uses 54 cards (include 2 jokers), and it needs 3 players on 2 sides. One side is called Landlord of one player, another side is called peasants of 2 players. Each player has basic 17 random cards, and there are 3 extra random cards belong to Landlord. Training AI how to play and gamble this game would be a very interesting thing. This project is aim to create a multiple online poker game: Dou Di Zhu, and train the AI that can join the game to play with humans.
