BOTS

[oldgreywolf]

are there pokerbots working the mergenetwork ?

Has some one observed pokeranette ?

she plays 12 to 15 tables starting around 16:00 GMT until 02:00, thats 10 hours of play
without any hesitation at any of her tables, she needs no time to think
also no breaks for a pee or eat some, always start with minimum buyin and only playing
premium hands

this 7 days a week, how can somebody do this, never chatting also even after calling to her

Is she a bot ??

The thing is if you identify a her/him as a bot you should easily be able to beat them coz if you raise and they re-raise then you know your beat, if not you win coz they usually fold to a raise.

no definately not

i watched 6 of her tables and she was folding when she didnt need to and there was quite a bit of hesitation

she probably doesnt answer cos she has so many tables open and doesnt or cant reply to the chat cos shes either doesnt see it or perhaps doesnt want to chat for fear of missing something at her tables

but no definately not a bot so skin her alive leo lol

There was a bot for limit stakes, but I dont think it can support 12 tables.
What kind of games does she play and what limits?

[oldgreywolf]

plays yellowstone and collosseum nolimit 0,10-0,25 and 0,20-0,50, 10 handed tables

No Limit I wouldnt let play any bot besides SSS. But you buyin for minimum and leave tables when u have a small win. In merge network this doesnt make real sense because u dont have much tables to choose from.

I have experimented a little with bots, but I havent found one that could earn some bucks while u sleep!

i remember the subject of bots arising when i was pretty new to online poker....must admit i thought it was cheating to use such a thing but ive read they can easily be beaten, if you recognise one ,and play as if you have the best hand regardless ,they fold ......in my opinion using one would take away the pleasure of the game......the player you mention here wolfie has been playing bounty sngs aswell as ive encountered her there....to the best of my knowledge she did not cash and took no bounties....

I also remember posting on Bots a couple of years ago when the old WassCasino forum were openly advertising sites selling these cheat machines, glad to see we no longer advertise this sort of stuff. I dont know anyone who uses one and would hate to think one was in use in our forum games.
Does seem like an awful lot of tables on the go at one time but each to their own and if Trish says this player is OK then I assume that it has already been reviewed.

Not sure if this is correct to add or not as it might not apply to the situation. I do know if a person selects a certain game say .25/.50 no limit and they have to wait to get on a table, they can check the box that has them wait for all tables similar so it appears the player is on a lot of tables when in fact they are just waiting. Maybe this is the case for her. Or maybe she does play a boat load of tables. Just thought I would put that out there.

I just couldn't even dream of using a bot or being a bot whatever the correct terminology is. That would take every bit of enjoyment out of the game. Would imagine because people get so consumed with money / winning / being noticed online for their skill I could see how some in their own minds could justify this. And always there is someone out there trying to crack the system, they get a rush from that as well. So I would think every minute of every day there are people out there trying to make money quick off of online poker in shady ways, probably a hell of alot of them.

We'd probably bitch alot less if we played against bots, lol would imagine they play a little better than donkey deluxe that seem to find us all at any table or tournie we enter.
