Do you think that poker sites put up their own bots just to stimulate play. Especially on heads up sit and gos? And if so, do you think they program an edge for themselves?

We can not say if the bots motivate the player. In my opinion there should be no bot in the poker rooms, the bots are poker fraud and the intelligence of poker players.
The game must be 100% real and there should be no mechanical or virtual interference.

There are definitely bots at every poker site and they cheat. I'd say mostly at the cash tables and sit n gos, but I am sure some are in tournaments too no doubt about it they give an edge for themselves

I'm asking if you think the companies that operate the poker sites have their won bots designed to generate play, especially at heads up sit and gos. I know that bots are everywhere.

I don't play heads up games too often but i play a lot of sit and gos (mostly pokerstars). I'd like to believe everything is above board...but often i wonder. There are so so so many bad players (too loose, all in maniacs, keep betting/ calling with AK without hitting...and the list goes on) All of these things "generate" action. I really don't how to distinguish between these players and bots. So i think my answer is maybe?

I'm not concerned about bots in general. I'm concerned about a bot in the game sponsored or created by poker stars or a similar poker site. By the way yes, guitars are good :)

I'm pretty sure WPN still has bots. I'm not 100% sure, but it does feel like some people are playing the same exact preflop raise/call stats over multiple tables.

I know bots are bad, but Id rather play against a bot, than a laggy donk/fish all in pre every hand.

Hello.
In my opinion, this is not important.
It is more important to try to improve your game every day and avoid mistakes.

Hi.
I think that this possibility can not be ruled out.
But in any case, your success depends on you only.
Good luck.

I don't like it but PokerStars aren't without bots. I don't know, it's players' bots or company's but there are.
In my opinion, the best solution is avoidance of bots. If it's SnG HU you've already seat. So there is a question: need you play SnG HU? Ok, maybe.
But in cash games you can simply change table.
Yes, bots teach us for best game. Yes, bots are better than just fishes. But we talk about our money. And game with bots isn't not cheap. So I don't want to play with it.

The bots definitely have a question in another, whether they play for poker rooms or not .. I also think many players use programs that help them win.

Bots are against the rules of the game and illegal. It is unlikely that they are there.

I don’t think there a many bots out there at the lower limits. If the bot plays too many hours, orntoo many tables at a time the rooms will easily spot them and bam the accounts. They might let them run until they wanna cashout..... I don’t think that many people will take the effort with. Bots for a relatively small profit. And the higher the Limit the higher the Risk that an opponent figures out a pattern to beat your bot.
And Info look at the numbers of Players Online at PokerStars or Party then i dont see a reason for them to use bots to create action at the tables....
