One of the distinctive traits of no limit tournament is that on any given hand a player can be knocked out the game with a big enough bet, which affects how players are likely to play (as might one player amassing a large chip lead ove another if neither player opts to go all in on early hands)

Of course it also makes games shorter and introduces a lot more variance, which isn't so good for assessing how well a computer plays.



This isn't a tournament though, it's more like playing a very long cash game where the stacks are reset on each hand. Whoever has the profit at the end of the cash game will be the winner.
