| Yep it's standard, had that happen to me. I emailed them about it and they said many things in their security will trigger that. It's a security measure to insure fair play is what they told me. So if you were doubting your buddy, he was telling you the truth. |

| It never actually happen to me but my question is if you have turned chat off, how they will get you the message to type something in the chat box?? Or they can send a msg to you and just to you even if you have chat box turned off?? Interesting. |

I know nothing about bots, but I'm guessing they'd be more concerned with mechanical like plays. Consistency of speed of decisions, bet sizes being exact percentages etc |

| re: Anyone ever heard of anything like this before? poker Interesting story. I guess as long as they give you enough time to answer all the chats it would be ok. My worry would be tryig to play a good hand while answering or having to give up a good hand to to tak the time to answer. |

| It was just the standard automatic bot check. You type in the code and you can continue playing. Even if you don't type it in you can continue playing, they just try it again and take a much closer look at your playing records. Not a big deal, and it's nothing personal. I think some are done at random, but most are sent to multi-tablers who trigger something. Like, if someone played for 24 hours straight, or 7 days a week at the exact same times, or some other repetitive/fbot-like behavior. |

I don't think i'll ever have to worry about any bot check because I always play on micro. I think its ok for poker sites to do bot checks from time to time because of security measures. |

| The poker sites must have some type of monitor programs because i saw one guy at a table who started swearing a lot and all of a sudden this message poped up on the chat screen and said to whatever the guys name was that he had just received a warning and everybody else could see it too. Not sure but it might have been a real person watching?? |
