hi there, i'm checking out this excellent library, and i'm wondering how someone might use the PokerGameServer class in a way that resumes a hand. here's what i mean: let's say you start a hand in a straightforward way, much like the example in poker-engine's simple.py. when you get to the flop, you need to shut down your server. when you restart your server, you want to resume the hand from where you were. what do you think would be the best way to do this? i can figure out a solution myself, but i'm hoping people with more experience with the codebase can recommend the best approach. the two basic ideas i have:
1) pickle the PokerGameServer object. right now it doesn't pickle for various reasons -- it's not clear how much work it would be to fix that. 2) save the history, then feed it back to a new instance of the PokerGameServer. this is a little tricky for various reasons, such as the is_directing flag needing to change states, or however to deal with feeding previously dealt cards back to the class but still having it deal more cards from a shuffler. i would appreciate any thoughts on these approaches, or possibly something else i didn't think of. thanks! adam
