If you are concerned about bots, stay away from:
Even if the bots aren't as smart as humans yet 1v1, the big concern about bot collusion remains. Imagine playing Omaha vs a bunch of bots, who share their hole cards (that's a lot of cards). They may not know the final board and your cards with a certainty, but they will be a lot better at approximating them than you.
- poker rooms without strict anti-bot policies
- heads-up games (spin & go included)—less players makes it easier for the bot
- limit games—the complexity of the game is reduced significantly by the predictable bet size
- games with door cards (Stud)—bots are better than humans at remembering door cards, and at calculating outs/blockers from them
- cash games—the bots don't have to adapt that much, compared to a tournament, and it's easier for a team of bots to end up at the same table
