Nowadays, poker bots can beat NL 500 or so. Does anyone worry about it?

Especially in sites like Bovada, with their anonymous tables and zone game, there is really no way to tell if your opponents are bots or not.

I'm much more worried about the random maniacs than the bots. You can spot them if you pay attention. In my experience they never really do anything that special.

I play such low stakes, it would not be worth using bots.

If you really believe in this, then you have obviously never seen a poker bot before.
Bots are mostly breakeven players, even at micros, and as you move up in levels, they're becoming worse and worse.
So at 500NL, my best guess is that they would be like money printing machines.
And you should be glad that they exist, they are very predictable, exploitable and easy to play against.;)
