Right now, the bots are smart but could be smarter. In bid euchre, they clearly check to see if a card has not been played yet, but don’t check if the person they’re up against could have it. Still, fewest ads of any euchre game, so definitely would recommend. Here’s how the bots could be smarter:
For example, say trump is spades and the bot has jack of spades, jack of clubs, king of spades, queen of spades, queen of clubs, and 10 of clubs. Meanwhile I have all hearts. The bot is smart enough to play both of their jacks first, but they would then realize, “oh, the ace has not been played yet, it must still be out there” but it won’t realize that I have yet to play any trump, and no one else is still in the round, so clearly they are safe. Instead of realizing that and continuing to play the trump they have, they will play the Queen of clubs next.
I wish they would program this intelligence in and give the bots difficulty settings. That would be great!
