Just to clarify;

In the calculateBid method in the AI_Template, there are 5 parameters: first_move, second_move, draw, first_money, and second_money.

first_move is the move made by the first player, and second_move is the move made by the second player.

My question is: do we have to account for invalid bids? Or should we assume first_move and second_move are valid moves?

You do not need to account these move are invalid.
