One man has determined that his online Texas hold ‘Em software rank among the best in the world and has decided to throw down the gauntlet and bring out all competitors for a challenge.
From August 1st of this year until December 14th, the competition will commence bringing online poker sites from around the world to compete in this event. The outcome will be determined by voters who decide which online site has the best pokerbot-friendly site.
PokerbotBasics.com will host the online survey event and the winner will be awarded with $10,000. In order to participate in the online survey you must be a registered member of PokerbotBasics.com. Once the survey is completed, on December the 16th a check will be issued to the winner of the online event.
Pokerbots have been very controversial in the online casino industry as they are programs that automatically play poker. “There is a lot of opportunity for the poker sites to view the proliferation of pokerbots for what it is, an emerging market,” said Rob Turner, the man behind PokerbotBasics.com. Although the popularity has increased for online pokerbots, they still are not recognized as legitimate players.
“Pokerbots play hands faster, stay at tables longer and can play at more tables at one time. This contest will not only allow pokerbots to sit at a table like everyone else but it will give players who have wanted to knowingly play against a pokerbot the chance they’ve been looking for. This is going to be a big win for participating poker sites.’
According to the site, they are hoping to draw in many curious competitors to engage in the online poker games against pokerbots. ‘People are going to be attracted to a pokerbot-friendly site,’ said Turner.
This could be the start of a new trend in online casino gambling as it gains popularity with online players. “I think hobbyists and players alike are going to have a lot of fun.” said Turner.
