    Default Do bots even bother you?

    OK so lots of talking about bots as usual...


    I don't see the problem myself? sure they lack emotional retardedness but they play so mechanistically predicatablly that they are surely a form of fish still? I'm sure if you're beating your current stake, then if a bot was introduced at that stake you'd equally be able to beat it?

    Don't you agree? Is any decent player actually bothered about bots?

    Here's a poll for your amusement and edification...

    feel free to post your thoughts, I think my views are clear from the tone of this post

    This isn't off-topic. This is decidedly on-topic.

    This isn't even close if you look at the big picture. It's so dumb in fact that it's not worth expanding on.

    The Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which unskilled individuals suffer from illusory superiority, mistakenly rating their ability much higher than average. This bias is attributed to a metacognitive inability of the unskilled to recognize their mistakes

    I am not a bot but I HAVE a bot. His name is Robotro and he has lots of sweet chrome. He brings me stuff like bananas or my pyjamas.

    I like the sounds of this. Does Robotro have a sister?

    Well funnily enough.. they are

    Would you believe me if I told you I regularly encounter 3 bots in the free sngs I play in? They're not the smartest of villians so I kind of like them... But they're definately there, only on ipoker...
