A poker playing program. I wish I were smart enough to make one myself. I think I could create a winner given the correct technical knowhow.

Interesting.

I've got 25,911 players, with an average of 34 hands/player. 20 of them have 1000+ hands. I even have one player with stats very close to the ones you posted, and he's killing the game at a whopping .032BB/100. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

While it's probably a longshot to play so many hands in a few weeks vs. a single-tabling rock, it doesn't seem too farfetched. I'm not a statistics wiz, so I'm not sure here.

I'd e-mail Party with your concerns.

I don't think a list of suspected bots will do much good in discouraging their use, which I suspect is very limited - especially at .5/1.

While I think it's technically possible to program a bot that could beat the low limts, why in the world would you bother?

I figure, if you are smart enough to make a bot that can play well, you are smart enough to snag a high paying technical job with good benies and or play poker yourself for way more than a .5/1 bot can do.

Talk to Party about him.

Just say that you've noticed him playing very strangely, or something like that.

Good job spotting him.

Against that guy, just make sure he sits on your right. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Or raise with less than premium hands. Just do stuff that will make a robot fold if it's the kind of board that would make him a gutshot or something like that.

Also, him being down $50 doesn't really mean anything after 2k hands.

How does this bot respond to turn checkraises in small pots with decent made hands (tptk)?
