I think the sites will find a way to avoid bots. If not, I would imagine they will come up with "shops" where you login and play online at the same speed as you used to, but can avoid bots because you have to physically be there or play on their computers and they can check everything. Kind of like a worldwide connected online casino, but you cant play from home. Yeah, you'd think people wouldn't go, but then again, people still go to physical bookies in the UK.
Agree about Live Poker, I don't think that can go anywhere and should remain fairly soft.
