Poker Bots Banned From Online Poker

Online poker room Full Tilt Poker have been hit with an influx of members who have opted to try to enhance their poker playing ability at the site by purchasing an artificial bot that is used in conjunction with playing poker at poker rooms.

Poker Bots are special programs that are created with computer scripting and are made to be able to connect with the poker rooms in order to be able to collate data such as the cards that you are holding and then use a set method of play as per the users instruction at the time of setting the bot, automatically.

So many online poker rooms have policies against the use of this style of poker tool, claiming that they are unfair and give the other players at the tables less of a chance to be able to increase their poker bankroll.

Thoughts surrounding the decision seem to point to the fact that poker rooms believe that during every online poker session, the player is likely to make a human mistake during their time at the tables, allowing others to be able to profit from their lack of composure.

With the use of a Poker Bot, the program is designed to act in a certain way each and every time that it is presented with a certain hand value, reducing the chance for opponents to be able to capitalise on human error.

The decision to ban Poker Bots has split the online poker community, developers claiming that the bots are simply playing the game in the same way that they would but those who are against their use claim that they are still an unfair advantage.
