You know, unless (like most people with a brain suspect) you actually want the bots playing because it's the only thing that makes you look comparable to Bovada.
I would help them for free. I agree that the most likely explanation is that they need the bots around for one or more reasons (bots drive action, generate rake, ect). There is also the possibility that there is some sort of kickback or profit sharing deal with the bot operators that Nagy can't afford to lose.
I am going to focus on the original PLO bots for now as the new variant I do not have much data on and I do not want to appear like I am randomly throwing out names at whim. Once I have a few accounts with over 25k samples I will make a fresh spreadsheet for the new types.
A thought occurred to me the other day. WPN has the hand histories for every single account that they banned. In my opinion
these hand histories should be made public for download, every single last one of them. The hand histories could even be modified to remove non-bot player names to protect innocent players while still allowing for analysis of the bot strategy. This would not only allow players to develop effective strategies to defeat the bots should they be present, but also would prove conclusively whether the bots have been colluding, which I am 99% sure they are. If the security department has access to these hand histories it should be a trivial matter to spot the currently active bots not only by stats but also based on the lines they are taking with individual hands.
