The positive thing is that they are doing serious job chasing them down. Along with the fact that they are returning money to the players affected, it means something. It is a site with a big number of players, so getting them all at once it wont be easy. Plus the whole advertising with the results they are getting, it might stop new ones from popping out.

We do not know if these boots everyone will be caught, but we can hope for a very drastic law to discourage these bots. I do not think it will be invented in a short term a program, to catch them all bots but a bad law is more realistic. One law in which the punishments for bots are like the bank robbers would be ideal.

Something like that it is almost impossible to happen. We are talking about online games here. Besides getting the tax countries are not going to spent resources aof any kind, in order to make this a legit thing. It is up to the companies to try and catch all the ones using these programs. So after all it is your choice, if you want to play and where, if you dont trust the game...

buueee can not be so sarpados so I barely have 1 account and it costs me enough to earn some money there and and seeing something like that makes me mad because they can not be as much liners to do those things, although nowadays nothing surprises me anymore it just makes me angry

The problem with this is the bots act as players so they pay the rake just as a human counterpart. The companies are really not incentivised to catch them.

In this case, the players are very disadvantaged. Poker rooms want money, more rake and many players but protection of these bots is not too big. It's not okay but the big problem of the players is the profit. When there is no profit and players lose with these bots is very bad.I read many reviews in other sites with many complaints.
