A computer is only as smart or skillful as it’s programmers.

A meaningless endeavor

Poker played perfectly without the human element of bluffing and reading players becomes a pure game of chance.

If a human player plays mathematically perfectly, of course he can beat a computer player being randomly dealt slightly weaker hands during THAT game.

For infinite games, the computer would eventually win because humans make mistakes. Or it would be perfectly 50/50 IF the human player never makes a mistake

The answer is no. I can bluff that machine until it’s power supply shorts out.
