Re: Bots in PartyPoker\'s 6-max Limit games?
[ QUOTE ]
i disagree. a bot-owner with 50bots making 1.4BB/100hands at 10/20+ still makes many times more than most limit pros.

in order to run 50 bots you basically need 50 accounts at the poker site you are running them on - plus some way of getting funds out of the site - and usually a box to run each bot on (you can't just fire up your bot s/w 50 times on one box - things like IP and MAC addresses need to get sorted for each one)
You are correct in that for someone who goes to all this trouble then yes they stand to make bank. mostly as the bots can play 24/7.
I read recently that some guy who runs half a dozen bots from a warehouse somewhere is making $50K a year.
Would players complain if a site limited each player to a max of x hours playing time a day? - once your x hours are up then you get kicked off any cash tables and aren't permitted to open new tournaments - to get your playing time limit lifted you would need to go through a pretty hefty ID process and interview.
