Pasta suspects collusion between an unknown number of accounts. His theory is, as far as I understand it, that the suspected accounts are playing a fixed UTG-range based on cardremoval.
The theory is of cause worth looking into, however nothing is proven as-is. Not even close.
Well no botting probably not so much. Colluding does put me off sitting reg tables though for sure.. as for zoom 500z is pretty meh after wcoop look at ur streets danifu they dead atm
Sad times in the PLO discussion world, alleged bots and colluders taking over
I made a video about how to deal with downswings at PLO, the future of online PLO and what is bad information and good information when learning about the game.
i think theres few bots atm on stars (why they wouldn't be back ?), but not a lot of them like pasta says. i think he is paranoid about this situation . that being said, i dont understand other regs making fun of him in this thread... wtf. pasta is legit and is trying to help us. we should help him too . im sending few screenshots to him, if anyone else want give opinion on this pls do it but STOP writing what you think about bots here. do this pm/skype...
i dont think we should email stars to ban this bots because they are weak players. plus they always will be back after 2-3 months . maybe this bots will be invencible at 2020, but in 2016/17, they are weak, easy to exploit them.
after you know X account its a bot, you can exploit him in some many ways and play according. you dont need think about few things when playing vs a bot, you have to think about diferent stuff when playing vs a bot .
problem about bots is making fishs and/or weak regs scared to play and make the action more dry .
The above post is silly to think these bots are weak. I want some of what you are drinking if you think these bots weren't some of the biggest winners at their stakes. Seriously have you been living under a rock for the last year?
But even beyond that, non-humans should not be at the tables. PERIOD.
Ive been really busy for last few weeks, so ive not got time to go this things trough very much yet, bought new pc and havent even played much lately. i've now 8figs db on another pc, and i'll go trough some stuff during this week propably.
I hope you legit regs can try to do something for this too. some of regs have even chatted with 100% sure bot account at skype for example, so it does not prove account as a legit player, if you have been chatting online with him.
i also got some mail few days ago.

Are you only targeting PLO100 and higher or also lower? Some reg in chat warned me about some accs being bots on PLO50 but they are really bad (in my small samplesize/database) so i dont mind too much. But since the player pool is alot bigger and people are not that smart they can play alot longer till someone gets suspicios.
at plo50 and higher there's bots for sure. i dont know about lower stakes very good, but i spotted few suspicious ones from lower like few months ago, while i was coaching one of my horses. i did rail his game while he played plo10. i say that is very likely there are bots at lower than plo50, i dont see any reason why not.
