Only a matter of time before bots take over poker, unfortunately

I have made a bot detector tool, and I'm kind of interested in seeing how bad the situation really is on the other networks other than PS.

Pokerstars support did listen before, and they did ban in the cases where the signal was strong. In other cases, they did nothing, and I had at least a couple of bots/tool assists in the games I was playing.

If anybody is interested, (and is willing to take some risk), I can run it on hands from other networks. I still haven't figured out the details on how to do this, perhaps some obfuscation in the hand history would be needed, at least for the owner of the hand histories, and as I said, it would be risk for anybody willing to do this. I will not be giving details on what exactly is tested, lets just say that is not stats comparison to look for groups with the same playing styles, it can detect even a single bot.

PM me if anybody is interested.

Hello, guys.

This is a list of #bots (or players using real-time adviser, most likely) on #PartyPoker, i've posted on russian most popular poker forum and reported a few times to Party Security Deparment. But after all examinations they are still playing.



Also check out only an approximate list of bots in WPN network (also being reported a lot of time, but they are just don't care).



@demario PM me, maybe I can connect you with PartyPoker support

Pretty big deal if some of those party screenames are bots as they featured pretty heavily in the MTT leaderboards for Caribbean poker classic - mostly the low and medium.

Most SNs were locked but B1oxmik is up €36k over 5k games. Some of his wins were in bounty tournaments.

Joeytribbiani and Leffthook were the only other ones left unlocked on sharkscope.

If MARADONA88777 is a bot then I think trainee54 is also ?

Has almost identical stats to Maradona on my hud . Exactly same vpip figure and rfi structure the same for ep mp co btn seems to rfi higher ep than mp and co for some reason
Is from Russia and sharkscope blocked
Doesn't seem to adjust
My apologies if he's legit

Update of actual list of bots.

Party:

I hope Ike gets them all banned.

Can you provide any evidence that they are actually bots?

list of german bots on 888

Actually, its most like there are a human players with real-time advisor. Please read the first page of this thread for proofs.

By the way, lozuoki from Party list is not a bot. He is contacted with us on rissuan forum. We apologized.

I read the first post. I am talking about the last post of possible bots or real advisors because the stats of some players indicate a very different playstyle

What ended up happening with those guys?

I have a decent sample size of Ipoker and Winamax mtt:s and there are quite a lot of players who fit this category. I reported 10+ players and let's see what happens. If these accounts get banned I might dig a little deeper.

Don't really know what is the best approach here? Should these names be outed or does it just give these people more time to withdraw money and change to a different account? There are some cases that are pretty much 100% bots and some cases that looks like one, but might be just a coincidence.

I reported 8 names to Ipoker and William Hill. They replied and said they take these matters very seriously and now it seems that 7 of these 8 names haven't played in a week. Not 100% sure if I just missed some of them, but one with open Sharkscope seems to be done.

I think they are coming back with new nicknames, so keep your eyes open. I think it's a matter of being able to bust these accounts early enough, so the risk/reward gets worse for them to keep going.

I dont think immorrrtal is a bot, i saw him doing some ridicilous bad things, well it was only one time. But MP1 open's btn flat's sb is auto allin and he jast spewd 20bb in with K4o.

Played quite a decent amout with mrrmagister, steelhand and lincoiin, what make's you think those guy's are bots?

"G20LLD" rakeback hu sng bot on PP and now playing on acr aswell. 101% sure he is a bot. That volume is insane, he is pretty much playing 24h hours a day. Like a lot of these bots:

- very high 3bet %
- very very high fold to 4bet, even if u start min4betting any2
- super weird lines u will never see from reg e.g: 3betting 78o 50bb deep, then flop 6Tk chch, turn 6 he mincr a half pot size bet, and shove T river. This kind of stuff

He is a loosing, very slighty winning player i mean bot lol pre RB. Post rb his winrate is quite decent.... Probably the player with the most hu sng volume on PP by far

He sometimes does play mtts, so i think he belongs here

Microgaming bots.

Been just talking to w1chtelmnle in the chat, doesnt look like a bot, responded like a normal human.

Maybe this has been here before, but this might have something to do with these accounts. http://www.warbotpoker.com/

Some people on their forum were complaining about their bot shoving ridiculous hands in some spots. I've seen some of these suspected bots do this too. For example shoving Q7o with 25bbs from bb over bigger stacks mp open etc. This coming from a otherwise pretty solid reg doesn't really make too much sense.

This is from their FAQ:

"Is your software legal to use? Do i need to hide it?

This program performs no illegal activity by itself. Most of casinos that we support at the moment, are loyal towards bots, so you don’t need to hide it or worry about your safety there. Regarding rooms with “High” and “Medium” security level (see main page), we have special “Stealth setup”, that prevents instant detection of the bot (read Manual). However, you should understand that it is still risky, and bans happen there from time to time. Use it at your own risk, or choose other casino, that is not hunting for bots."

Here is some settings for the sites: http://www.warbotpoker.com/roomsettings/

Huh interesting. There a lot of new Ukraine accounts that I didn't think were bots but now not so sure (this is for party).

Don't understand how party is getting new depositors from that country considering the russian occupation and state of the economy.
