Re: For those that think botting isn\'t too big of a problem

If these bots work well and are profitable it makes no sense for people to release them for download. Each other bot would decrease the value of my bot by a certain BB/100.
If they do NOT work well then yeah send them out all day long.

Unless you release weak bots for public and play your bots that eat them up. Or better yet, release colluding bots that win, except when they interact with your bot, then they lose.
Also, winning and losing are relative terms depending on game conditions. A bot that can beat a weak passive table by playing tight and raising a lot, but will lose in any tough game, will STILL ruin the games by taking up half the table with nitty bots.
What I'm saying is that because its freely available does not mean you can assume it sucks. Just the same, its pretty frightening how easy these are to get and use.
