Wait a minute! I was there too not sure what happened but if you took two seconds to look at te standings you may notice that I am no where to be found. 'dumping' to me would get you no where. Plus I to tired and went all in with shit and finished in like 35th place.
Seriously this is bs but u never know what if he misclicked the fold? If dude has no reason to chip dump to this guy then I don't know another real able explanation.
This would be a behavior a bot could exhibit if not told to not fold when a raise of less than a certain percentage of the total pot is not written into its profile. Easiest way to learn a majority of your small stakes opponents playing online(of course some sites worse than others, some openly except bots) is to understand how they are written to play. The profiles written sold and updated shared just like any other program for a computer.
Never seen a profile for sbrpoker but I also haven't really stayed up to date with them since my bot raping days. Could be but more than likely its only been requested. If anyone wrote one detailed enough they would not share until enough demand made it worth it. Any demand would expect a nice profile if paying for it.
This would basically result in any bots playing here being profiles that are simple and basic or attempts to use existing profiles converted for SBR poker software. Fixing bugs in a profile like the potential bug in this hand are made as found and with each one squash a bettor profiles results.
If SBR is profitable for them serious bots are inevitable. However most that may use them here probably do so for its convenience while using the restroom, watching a game, or maybe just want to get through the early stages of a tournament while finishing up work or other commitments preventing them form making it themselves by the tournament start time.
Do not be naive and think sites are looking out for you. If you have played at any site worth depositing on at micro to mid stakes cash tables you have without a doubt made a decision or action put forth to you buy a software program and it has responded to your play by following a programed action given for that situation.
If a action is required for a situation not written into the profile then it falls back on a default action. Which in this hand if it is a bot would have been to fold to (ANY)raise.
Once you learn these types of opponents you then just need to know who they are. Once you establish that you can begin to grow your list of ATM's past and present with an ability to add future ones at an even faster rate. Quicker its found the more profitable for you.
I'm guessing he thought he could just steal the pot easily. Bgbootha caught him and cigar just figured there was no reason to call since he was clearly beat. Clearly, you call there even if you have 2,3 since it's so few chips more but some people don't see it that way.
I'll PM cigar and tell him to reply to this thread.
nittany is correct... I was caught, first to act, with absolutely nothing. When i saw i left myself with so little I chose the chip and chair then finished, what? in the top ten? Dont feel i have to apologize. Analytical minds and exercise in deception comes with the nature of the hobby. Take a note that says donkey and see you at the tables. I gave nothing away. Nice call.
