I might be wrong but I thought party cared about the ecology, lol? If I had to pick one player I suspect being a bot it would be Ardin3 (russian player). Anyway, this is a far more important question then everybody think. This problem must be taken a lot more serious then the case is handled today. Soon its too late. Trust me!
Man, ive read all your posts for the last year, the time i have been playing Partypoker, and you always suspect bots among players from Russia, Ukraine and Belarus.
I don't know from what country you are, but you should understand one thing. Those 3 countries have very good educational (schools and universities) programms and very low average income (200 dollars for Belarus and Ukraine and 500 for Russia). If the clever student from Denmark (for example) faces the possibility to earn 1000 euros while the average income in his country is 5000 euros, he won't think about poker as his job. But if you give this opportunity to a 20-year old boy from Belarus, he surely will use this chance.
And because there are a lot of clever, young guys that starts their poker careers the level of competition grows very fast.
And also in Russia there are tons of poker schools because they can make money.
I can't say for sure but i am more than convinced that 90 percent of those players at PP are simple humans that play for their living.
And what on earth makes you think that Ardin3 is a bot?
He plays 10-12 hours without a stop?
Unreal winnings?
Same actions every time?
