_Kindred_ is on a distinguished road
I've read numerous articles like this and to be honest I think this does more harm to the "poker economy" by scaring away the fish. I've been called a bot by the fish when I multi table and don't chat, and house player when I do chat, by the fish. And when I was a fish I used to think everyone I lost to was a potential bot or cheater. Now that I'm a pretty solid player I know who the bots are because I can steall from them. They are predictable since they are running a program not actually thinking. They're usually very aggresive which is profitable at most limits online, but if you figure them out and use that against them they become easy prey. At least that's my theory, I don't think bots are a big threat or as widespread, not yet anyway...
