Message: [QUOTE="Crystal Blue, post: 1110625, member: 46561"] Yes, I feel that the majority of bots out there serve their purpose by grinding away at many tables and clocking up a worthwhile amount of $$$ that way. Multiple accounts at multiple poker rooms all adds up to a nice income with rake back and re-load bonuses. It's worth baring in mind that if one bot owner could play at say, 100 tables, 100 bot owners could be playing at 10,000 tables. Hard to measure that really, but the prospect is a scary one. Average Joe with a bot at his disposal may not have the skills or know how of tweaking it to more successful results than it's default settings or whatever. Lots of bot owners use trial and error methods with the profiles and can even sometimes turn a once winning bot into a loser, and vice verse. Also not all bots from various web sites have the profile function to tinker with. Also a winning bot at say Absolute Poker, might well be a losing bot at Full Tilt Poker, so there is plenty for a bot owner to consider really. You have probably read some of the same posts as I did about profiles, where owners advertise their supposedly winning bot profiles for sale. Their main reason/excuse for wanting to sell is that they have moved up a level or two and now don't use that successful profile. Prices go from about $50 right up to $1000 in one case I found. Some of these sellers appear to have a proven track record in selling successful profiles and seem to do well. Others are less trusted and treated with suspicion ( which is funny and ironic really ) These prices usually come with a support system from the seller, promising to help make adjustments etc if the buyer is experiencing difficulties. Some work well, and some don't from what I found out. The programmers are continuously launching new bots and even fondly give them names. After claiming to have successfully tested them and providing graphs to that effect, they feed the community with their new bots and the cycle continues. A lot of the time each new launch is claimed to be better than the last and so on creeping up the limits slowly. Some of the programmers show brag posts with attachments of graphs etc of how wonderful their latest projects are coming along as a tease to the potential buyers. How honest these programmers actually are is debatable but in a lot of cases, if their products were worthless, they would be out of business. Though I would imagine that wouldn't stop them from turning up out of the blue a few months later with a new site and a new name. There has to be a big trust element among those communities but it's easy to spot that in a lot of cases, lack of trust comes to the surface. [/QUOTE]
