The hardest part about beating a bot is identifying them. The tells:

1) First and foremost, TIMING! A bot will generally take the same amount of time deciding to play 72o as they will playing AA. They will demonstrate the same timing throughout the hand.

Is this a troll post? Are you serious? You think timing is a reliable method of detecting a bot? Do you have any idea how trivial it would be to vary the timing?

Anyone smart enough to build a winning bot will not get caught by such simple detection methods.

"Bot Writers" are in the kiddie script phase. They are using canned scripts and modifying. Most give it up after losing their arses. Coders will improve the timing variable, agreed, no argument there.

Edit: I'm telling you how to beat bots today, not tomorrow. If you have a better technique, pray tell.
