Hello I have read background material on rules engines as well as a
portion of "Jess In Action".  I'm still trying to wrap my head around
the concept of rule engines and whether they are an appropriate
solution for the problem that I'm trying to solve.

I will give a concrete example of some of the rules that I would be
trying to implement.  In pseudo code I might have a rule that says:

"always raise if holding pocket aces"

However further on I may decide to implement a more important rule that goes

"if there is a known bluffer then call if holding pocket aces"

Further on again I may decide to implement a rule that is more
important than both of the above

"if someone has just seen me bluff then raise 90% with pocket aces and call 10%"

and so on

My two main questions are:

1.  Is a rule based engine such as jess an appropriate solution given
the type of problem that I am trying to solve
2.  What mechanism is in place to control the order of priority of
rules?  I know that I can manually specify a salience for my rules but
is there a better way of doing things?
