Alright guys, hoping someone can shed some light on the current bot situation on iPoker these days. I quit professional poker 6 years ago but am getting back into it because corona virus has destroyed my business.

I'm out of the loop on everything really but I hear iPoker has a bit of a bot problem, is this true?

Thanks in advance

Looks really suspicious to me. He never quits anyone (it's the only one that does it) even with lots of tables. If he's playing 5 6max and you sit him for 6 more HU, he plays with no problem.

Bots are on many sites, iPoker, 888, ACR and many more. Only Pokerstars and Party are more clean.

Lol. Have you played party ff? Everytime they update the client 70% of the regs just disappear for few days.

it seems that iPoker has a worse reg:fish ratio than stars, is that true?

and by reading this thread it probably also has a higher bot:human ratio?

Has anybody used William Hill site for Omaha or hold'em for that matter?

I have seen and used the omaha scene for a while now and find the games very soft. Anything from 25-50c to 2-4HU or 6 max there are very few grinders that you would tend to not tangle with.

has anybody else got a view on these games?

So I hear talk about bots all the time, I have even been called one a few times and I am hardly the best poker player around.

I have seen several players i know about who I know for a fact are not bots called bots.

What I am wondering is what evidence is there for bots? is it just that people are profitable? is it strange hero calls?

if there legitimately is evidence of bots then this is very concerning however I do need more evidence then just here say.

the worst thing is the volume though
just looked at the lobby and at 50nl and 100nl there are 9 active combined (with no possibility to join waiting list lolol, so good luck starting a session)

Heavy volume and similar stats are most likely the most common factors.

I was hoping the traffic would increase after mpn skins joined and even fast to run but didn't happen. Shame because fe coolbet gives 30% rb when you rake 100€ / week.

Seems like only regs came over from MPN making reg:fish ratio worse and not helping traffic since games only run around recs anyway.

Well I just started to play on Ipoker this week, and can totally not relate to the "bad fish vs. Reg ratio" etc (not sure how it was before all those Skins migrated though).

Anyways, there is one very common issue with the software for me - I use Stack&Tile to have all my tables in one stack. However, sometimes a table pops in front, then just disappears back into the stack - I have to make 3 or 4 decisions on other tables and then it will pop up again for a short time. So I tend to time out quite a bit.
Is there any way I can fix this or is that just what the software is like? Do I need Stack&Tile to stack tables on Ipoker? Or will it remember the order of the tables I have to make decisions at anyway? Have no such problems on other sites using Stack&Tile

This. Party will actually go out of the way to tell you they remove hundreds of bots a month. The next month they reappear and people are still clueless.

5€-20€ SNGs/MTTs
I could imagine that Cash is different though, however I feel Reg vs. Fish ratio is worse in Cashgames on pretty much any site

no problem.

i am in the same situation cos back in ongame times i opened my acc in USD. one should make his account in the same currency as the depositing method is. they exchange buyins the same rate when you sit in and out. won't be charged extra or sg BS like that!

Anyone else having any issues with their balance not updating? Can't register for any tournaments or play cash either.

Yes, what skin are you on? I've seen claims that it's a general ipoker problem but that seems unlikely given that some people are still playing while others are shut out.

Is PokerTracker 4 works on iPoker? I've heard its not working for now and waiting for update, since some sites moved here from MPN.

Same. Frustrating how they take little responsibility for the issues, when it's obviously not ipoker overall because some players are still able to play. They're ignoring my contact about it so far as well.

I moved in from RedstarsPoker and it works just fine
the only issues is with times not being accurate on my hands... Since RedStar is using some unique timezone!
