I'm a relatively new student of Hold'em and lately have been spending much of my time playing against "Mike" the automatic advisor on Turbo Texas Hold'em. I find that over many hands (say around 2000), Mike does slightly better than me. I win more than half the challenges, but I usually only win by a small margin whereas Mike, when he wins, seems to win by a fairly large margin.
In any event, if someone has much experience playing TTH, I'm interesting in hearing how the computer opponents stack up to real play. Are they most similar to small limits or medium limit players? And is being able to beat Mike much of a success at all or is that just a bare minimum to surviving in any game? I ask because I've played online a bit at Paradise and won for a while but am now negative after having played around 1000 hands. I've played .25-.50 up to 2-4, and the quality seems only marginally better at 2-4 but the swings are of course much larger.
