[Wexler, Louis, Peter, Ray, and Egon all watch the prosecuting attorney being carried by one of the Scoleri brothers outside the courtroom] Judge Wexler: [wailing] Ohhh. . . Dr. Peter Venkman: You're next, bubbles. Judge Wexler: [screams] ALL RIGHT! ALL RIGHT! I rescind the order! Case dismissed! Louis Tully: Hooray, we won the case! Judge Wexler: Now do something!
— Ghostbusters II, 1989Since the summer of 2023, I have been involved in the University of Toronto Computer Poker Student Research Group (U of T CPRG) led by Juho Kim under the advisement of Dr. Michael Stumm. I am happy to share the project I have recently completed as part of this group: a CAPTCHA challenge based around poker hands.
This project was implemented using Django, making use of Juho Kim’s Pokerkit Python library to generate and validate poker hands. A random hand type will be generated and requested from the user, who must drag and drop a proper set of five cards to form that type of hand. Please see the video embedded below for an example of a successful and a failed Poker Hand CAPTCHA validation.
The repository for this project remains project for the moment, but we hope to soon make it available to the public. In the meantime, you may visit the main GitHub page for the U of T CPRG:
