Re: Should we really care??
IIRC the 2 word thing that seems to be a commonality among most of these players is similar to a previous bot issue.
Maybe the players who were accused of being bots back when WPEX first went 100% RB (might have been April, somebody can do a search) or maybe it was 20 or 30 push-bots on the Party $22 SNG's several mths ago.
It's also interesting that this guy has apparently found such a way to beat the Party 6-max games by almost always defending in BB and generally playing really agg pre-flop (and probably just pushing and pushing all the way to river unless completely miss the board AND opp shows agg).
Previously I would not have thought it very easy to program a bot to win at limit 6-max but his system appears to be yielding decent results.
Also interesting his strategy of usually having each bot play only one table and never with each other.
Playing at same table with each other runs the risk of getting involved in pots with each other and simply passing money back and forth and losing to the rake.
And not having any one of the bots play multiple tables perhaps makes it less likely they will be noticed.
Finally, do we have any data on them playing when the table gets less than 6-handed?
I'd be interested to learn if they stay on the tables through 5-handed and shorter play or if they just leave.
At 4-handed and shorter I would think it would be tougher for them to be winning players.
But I wouldn't have thought it very likely that such bots could be winners at 6-handed either so I just don't know anymore.
