Do you know how successful these "playing style" detection programs are? I wonder how many times you have to play before a pattern emerges.

It'd be interesting to know how this would apply to a game like Hold'em ...

In chess, the detection programs are extremely accurate, because all information is available to evaluate "optimal" play in any single game.

In Poker, all information is not available, so "optimal" play cannot be easily evaluated, and bots designed to avoid detection cannot be easily detected.
