Handstrength-library
In the legendary golden age of Fixed Limit Hold’em Winngy, member of Lab 1, developed a hand-strength-library that rates all hands from 1 (weak) to 5 (very strong). He used it successfully in his private Fixed-Limit-bot that played $5/$10 at that time. For the No-Limit-guys of modern times: these were the blinds, not buyins; and he also got a 100%-prop-deal to make his hobby even more enjoyable. Long story short: Fixed Limit died slowly and so Winngy decided to donate his hand-ranking-system to the OpenHoldem project. Our member HTC added his outs-counter. Both are combined in a library, which can be downloaded from https://github.com/OpenHoldem/openholdembot/blob/master/mh_str_Handstrength_Library/mh_str_Handstrength_Library.ohf.To make use of these functions just include this library in your bot-logic.
