I'm saying that the bots will kill internet poker far before it gets to the level of upper quality poker players. It doesn't need to kill the sharks by taking them head on; it can just scare away the fish and starve the sharks away,

I agree, although it's funny that you don't even need functional bots to do that. Just a rumour that online poker is rigged with bots could be enough to keep the fish away. These rumours have always been around but not on massive enough scale to reach the fishy ears. As soon as they do - boom.

Some of the truly fishy players will still play regardless
if they are scaled by bots or expert humans, don't you
think? The best sharks will still have their lunch, but
instead of filet mignon everyday, they'll have to settle for
fish-and-chips! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Heck, couldn't a (much simplier) well-designed fuzzy logic bot beat most average/poor players?

You’re completely right. BOTS will NEVER be able to play a competent game of poker. And to all those people who think this is possible, you can join the other crazies and lunatics who think it’s possible to someday land a man on the moon. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

I don't know.... have you given much thought as to the consequences of a 'world class' poker bot playing on Party?
I might be the first time in history a bot goes on tilt ! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

if any of you are honestly interested in testing your ability against several winholdem bots ... the crew at poker professional would be more than happy to oblige.

we propose the following:
5 bot players against 5 human players ... in a limit tourney ... say 10 tourney's total played; since neither side has no way to prove that the other side is not teaming, teaming would be allowed. in other words ... you professional players can share/chat/team/potjack 'till the cows come home. we don't care. but of course you can expect the bots to do the same.

we can also set you up to play heads up 1 on 1 or ..
if one of you thinks you can take on more than one at a time we'll do that too.

this is a friendly gesture on our part and is in no way intended to offend anyone.

also, we are willing to engage in a non team game if somebody can provide a way that guarantees that absolutely nobody (not even the bots) are teaming.

winholdem support.

if they are really pissed at a shark,
won't they buy a bot?
