PKJ, thanks for the term "propping". That was what I wanted to use, but I couldn't dredge the word out of my mind.
Yeah, those proppers usually played rake-free & as well as something in form of cash payment. The "simple" 125% rakeback deal sounds about exactly right.
I agree that I don't mind playing bots because I'd know how they would react (knowing which statistically-optimal play the bots would choose) based on what I do, and I would counter with some unpredictability yet still making decisions that may pan out in long run.
If the bots are programmed to make some unexpected plays & playing outside their parameters just to throw us off, then what's the difference between them and real humans who already behave that way?
PKJ, that was a good analogy about chess as programming poker is definitely more more complicated than programming chess-- I'm just guessing this based on how many more variables are in the game of poker, especially at a full ring table (unlike chess, which is just a heads' up game).

OK I disagree I lend my opinion just like everyone else. I personally think my age makes me less thought of so people think I am arrogant. I am very reasonable and you came into my thread yesterday to criticize me rooting for the Warriors because I was a Bulls fan yet a ton of other people were jumping on the band wagon. Go drink yourself to death Harry... Oh wait you already did that
companies usually use bots for testing purposes....before the launch........using them during is just effecting your rake.......like paying a shill.......usually not very cost effective.......if a company is ever busted using them during operation.....DO NOT DOWNLOAD......
Bots are not always winners. They get bad beated just like everyone else. You, Matt, and everyone else here has played against bots whether you knew it or not.
Poker bots are an effective way to play out your hands to satisfy bonus requirements. Again, I do not use them for poker, but I know some who do. They are not getting rich by using bots.
