Hello

My name is David Sprenkle and I am actively working on
computer ai for playing poker. I would be very
interested in your work. At this point I am not sure
I would pay for it but I am very interested in your
work.

Mostely I have been working on Texas Holdem but I feel
Omaha might prove to be a good game to look into. I
would definetly be interested anything realated to
Holdem.

I am a professional programing and a accomplished
tournement poker player. Anyhow not sure if your
email was just a ad or what so I will end it here. I
hope to hear from you.
