Probably the same old Bot questions.

My most important question is why would a "bot" have any better chance of sucking out on the River if it wasn't in collusion with the site?

Second: I have been accused of "being" a bot on BOL and Mira Poker and I've heard/seen a lot of people accuse others of being a bot. I know they exist but how could anybody tell from a few hands/hours of playing against someone/something?

Combining the two questions; wouldn't them calling, ignoring pot odds, and sucking out, to a three outer on the River lead people to believe they are fish and not bots?

In short; bots themselves are a problem but what would force me to stop playing is substantial evidence that sites are operating bots in collusion with their own software.

Shouldn't players have some central site such as here or two plus two or somewhere that would inform players of such collusion and thus force the sites out of business by boycotting them? (If this is available please let me know as I am relatively new to online poker.)

Bots would have no better odds and in general the ones that do exist suck. They play break-even, at best, poker and rely on rakeback to make their owners money. Most people are idiots and can't form a cohesive sentence much less correctly identify a bot. Ignore the idiots and good luck.

Bots are inevitable and are on literally every poker network unfortunately. That's just an inherent risk of playing online.
