BOTS on Absolute poker

Imgay · #1 12-13-2006, 03:44 AM

1st post here, long time 2+2er forum reader. Playing at Absolute Poker, 6 handed small stakes limit, and ran into this guy, who showed me how to detect bots playing there. I was kind of freaked out at how many where playing at Absolute. He told me about 15 names of bots there. So i tried his trick. The trick is , if there are 3 or less people at a table , the bot will lock up for 30 seconds, then go away.

I told people at the table too sit out (this being a full 6 max table ) because there were 2 bots there. Sure enough , both locked up and then left. i don't know if others know about this, i couldn't find it anywhere in the forum.

But anyways, the bot threads are kind of freaking me out.
Can't imagine it being good for the game at all. Any thoughts would be great thanks.

Maybe they just didn't want to play heads up possibly. Thanks for the heads up though.

Sure.
These names range from the .10/.20 too the .50/1.00 limit games. I have not dectected any in the 3/6 limit or higher games yet.

**tested = they locked up for 30 seconds when people sat out

the non tested ones are the names i got from the one guy who showed me how to detect them.

Its not uncommon for some players to bail when table numbers reach a certain point.Having said that,it doesnt hurt to keep an eye out for sure.Ive been playing alot of 1/2 there,was curious if i might recognize some of your suspects,but dont so far on your first short list.

Still looking for my other list.

It's not the fact that they are bailing when the table is low on people, people always do that, they just sit out then *poof* they are gone from the table. It's when they lock up for 30 seconds when the the table gets low on people that gives them away. Some of them are on now if u want to try it out and see what happens.

And the bots i mentioned, they don't play at 1/2, sorry, it's .50/1.00 limit or less. My mistake.
