    mods can you please fix the bot that plays in the 10 am

    saintjames uses a bot, please fix this. Every single tourney he waits until last second and checks or folds, so it doesnt kick him. if he is at your table your blinds will go up with one rotation. It sucks waiting on him every single round. He never responds to anybody or anything. Every single tournement its just not one. please look into this. Everyone is complaning that sits at his table and pms have been sent but nothing.
    thanks

    not sure if he cashes or not. i know he was in final 11 one day not sure if he did. Usually he all in's first 2 or 3 hands gains chips and never plays another hand. it would be different if he folded quickly but it waits until his last second then checks or folds every single hand

    oh no its every single tournement and its exactly the same every single tournment. there is no variance. I have seen it in 7 tournments now. He waits until it auto folds then check or folds so it doesnt put him on auto fold.

    Having a check/fold bot wouldn't make much sense since you actually wouldn't make the money less everyone started going all in within record time.

    We're investigating the claims.

    i think basically its someone who doesnt know how to play poker they put something there so it can just hope to make the money. it really distorts play for the other players on table though

    Lou, I assume you got my pm last week about this - no need to reply now that I know you know.

    On another topic ( sorry, but my thread on this is so far unanswered) : why are tourney results taken down so fast for the past couple days?. It kinda fun to see how one's competition in the 100 list do without having to look in near the end of a game.

    this is true. saintjames uses a bot and he makes final tables with it 50%+ of the time (if he wins his first or 2nd all in early).its like he stocks up chips then leaves.. n comes back near final table.

    It's mainly so the lobby isn't cluttered with 10 listings since the tourneys re-list once they begin.

    They go down after a full hour being finished.

    Hi guys,

    If Saintjames cashes in this 10am tourney today, we'll be canceling that transaction and rolling it down.

    I looked in earlier and it was the same thing with him - brutal to watch, more brutal to play at his table.

    I looked in again a few minutes ago and see that you have him folding without delay. Finally. thanks

    lou, why not just kick that bot if possible? you could send a broadcast message that he should reply asap by chat, pm or whatever to ensure his stay.

    So you're sure this is a bot and not some guy just milking the clock? What proof do you have of him being a bot?

    So the next time I land on the bubble, all I have to do is complain that someone is using a bot and I'll get bumped up to the cash? Good to know.

    I was playing RING when box came up with this message missing up a big hand. Didn't understand it and froze my play costing me.

    The play picked up as soon as the message was sent.

    I dont know how it was determined to be a bot but he was VERY consistently irritating with the constant wait for him to fold.

    exactly. when I sent the pm about it, I didn't consider it being a bot ( I'm not techie enough to have even thought of that). I just thought it was some idiot enjoying irritating others.

    So maybe I should try to wait until the very last second to make my decision. Since this pisses other players off, they will play more loosely and aggressively when I'm in a pot. Good strategy.

    If you are short stacked and trying to limp onto the final table playing slow will see the other table paying more blinds and having more hands to potentially knock out players.

    I play slow in that situation.

    definitely something fishy with that guy, he folds every single hand.
    and honestly, who would fold after being able to check before a flop (when on big blinds for example)?
