Poker is about playing the cards,
and playing the player(s). Part of that is game and table selection. I try to always play on Saturday night, because I know that I am more likely on Saturday night to find recreational players, and players who are mentally impaired and/or tired due to partying, or impaired just from staying up all night Saturday, because they can.
That is the difference. Poker is not about playing bots, who never get tired, never drink a beer, and never go on tilt. Part of the trick to doing well in a MMP tournament is not drinking alcohol, getting enough sleep, and otherwise being more prepared than your opponents to play an 8- 10- or 12-hour session.
A bot therefore has an unfair advantage over a human who thinks he is playing against other humans, and that advantage increases with playing time. If the human is game selecting, knowing that he might be playing against bots, he would make different decisions, such as playing tournaments with smaller fields, where the bot advantage would be much smaller.
