Has anybody reported him to Party yet? Preferably someone who played with him and has hand histories...

I reported him as soon as I sat in. Time stamped @ 8:25 pm to VIP at PP and then forwarded my own message to abuse at PP about 5 minutes later. In inimitable Party style my message to VIP bounced as "unable to open mailbox;" and I've heard nothing from the abuse@ address.

Total joke of customer service (not just the lack of email replies, but the fact that a poor bot can play for hours, apparently at more than one table, and not be detected). Now that I'm sober and it's clearer that this was some sort of bot, I'm going to email again this morning.

You're going to have to refresh my memory -- don't see anything around the time of your post relating to T9h.

1. I don't think the utility of trying to play with and exploit the bot sufficiently offsets the overall risks to the game when bots are permitted to play unreported (I am especially concerned that someone built a bot that is capable of playing 20-40 short against some of the donkeys that play the game -- if the bot-writer fixed the "skip SB" flaw and refined a few eccentricities in the application, I think from what I saw that the bot could hold its own against a good number of players in this game, or at least not hemorrhage money while the bot-writer refines his program).

2. I don't think it's fair to play at a table with the bot when other players at the table are unaware of the circumstances (at least I personally wouldn't feel comfortable).

3. I had already reported the player before playing with him for a while and realizing it was a bot.

I posted a follow-up to the situation described in this thread in the Zoo. Thread HERE.
