Character Amination - Poker

This is a fun project I have been asked by a client to look into its feasibility. We are looking to build an animated character which would give advice on playing poker online ( Single Table only ) . The software should be able to screenscrape to see what cards are out and in our hand and give advice, support and humours comments etc... We might be interested in including a probability calculator. At the moment the scope is just No Limit Texas Holdem but we would like to add other games. If you have any experience in builing animated interactive characters please drop me a line with some examples of your work. Poker knowledge is desireable but not essential, we are more intersted in your skills in software development and charater animation.
