Re: Bot warning on PokerStars

It's not a winning bot, it's a losing one. I guess it's an experimental bot to gain some experience or maybe statistical data.
I doubt any human could play this predictable, always take the maximum time, not ONCE playing a little faster.
He obv does a simple flop analysis, checking if he has a flush draw etc (doesn't matter if it's a low flush, he'll call lol) and call/bet based on the current strength of his hand. As mentioned very easy to beat by betting most flops and being careful if he calls.

Just because he takes the maximum amount of time before acting, doesn't make him a bot. At higher limits, players often like to take the same amount of time on any decision, even on easy decisions, so as to not give any information away, i.e. if I take longer in this spot I have a marginal hand... please raise me so I can fold, etc.
I admit, taking the max amount of time is annoying, but it doesn't necessarily guarantee he's a bot. At low limits it is somewhat suspect though, as the players aren't normally that sophisticated to where you need to worry about your timing tells.
