Comments on: Modeling Human Clicking Behavior on PokerStars http://www.mattmazur.com/2009/07/modeling-human-clicking-behavior-on-pokerstars/ Let's see what happens Wed, 08 Feb 2012 07:12:31 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Josh http://www.mattmazur.com/2009/07/modeling-human-clicking-behavior-on-pokerstars/comment-page-1/#comment-1676 Josh Sun, 29 Aug 2010 04:37:19 +0000 http://www.mattmazur.com/?p=1025#comment-1676 the Star's support told me that, when any user report a suspect of collusion, they look at the history of the users, trying to find: 1) lot's of times they played at the same table; 2) no-warly decisions (only one at time plays the hand); 3) many more test to find illecit cooperation. So, I think that thay could have many more ways to detect a bot, like as finding bet amounts patterns (likely based on pot's percentages if betting to flop, or based on the raise amount when raising or reraising) and identical behaviours on similar spots.. I guess you've already figured it, but I liked to leave you a message.. Nice job, by the way.

I am looking for how to interpret the log file (i just want to know my hole cards to calculate odds). Stars allows autohotkey and tableninja (i use autohotkey), both emulate mousemoves and mouseclicks (resulting in the exact same location and time interval every time). So i doubt that mouse click location would be a criterium. And if i were to write a bot, I'd sure make the mouse movements and clicks via autohotkey (nothing that stars can bring in against this). Just my 2 cents. Interesting article. I am looking for how to interpret the log file (i just want to know my hole cards to calculate odds).

I was wondering what language did you use to build your bot. The sample I saw in this article looked like VB but not sure. Thanks again for sharing Mike Hi Matthew,
