Well zoom game are one hing ,sometime people over adjust thinking that they are abusing position or stealing a lot by re stealing and this give rises to preflop wars and lots of variance there after because most zoom players at the low level tends to play like robot and does not exploit the field.
Anyway good luck at the tables, playing zoom can be great for volume but also it can make you get bad habit. Like limping too much etc!

First of all I would like to congratulate you for doubling up with minimum sweat. Nice job.I don;t know how poker bots are playing but I think that is typical play by human hand. Lets say that player 1 thinks is a decent player and more clever than the average. Tries to steal your bet or just to represent better hand possibly the best starting hand(AA or KK).
Now let me overturn your question :With all these action you would call if you hadn't the nuts?
Personally I would consider even fold high pair. The guy thinks you have high pair ,flops open ended str8 draw somehow in his mind rejects the possibility you having flush draw and here is the outcome.

I had some idiot in a freeroll earlier that was really annoying me... He kept calling with nothing and getting lucky with other players around the table and he had quite a large stack.. I beat him in 1 hand and he went mental, shouting bot, bot, bot, every f@;_ing hand after that at me and some other dude that was ignoring him. i don't usually pay any attention to the chat boxes - especially when there are idiots about.... He was raising every hand, laughing when he won and moaning saying we were bots when he lost - it got on my nerves and I bit.. lol. I got AA and thought 'right, got you now you d**k' lol... I checked, he raised, i called. Flopped nothing at all (4, 5, 9 rainbow??) He bet, someone else raised, I called, He went all in - I called... and he hit his back door straight on the next 2 cards.... I didn't wait around for his taunting, lol. I just hope I meet him again. He will give someone all his chips later and complain about being unlucky or bots.
Do these bots really exist? I presume they make money playing to a strict formula if they do.
