Pokerbots or Poker Robots are computer programs that can play poker 24 hours a day and that are intended to make money for the people running them. Bots are not a problem exclusive to poker, as there are numerous spambots in existence that illegally advertise for various products on Web sites and forums.

Fortunately for poker players, the bots that play poker are not the best players in the world. They have yet to master the intricacies of No-Limit Hold'em, especially in the context of multiplayer games.

The only area that pokerbots are considered to be talented enough to make consistent money is Limit heads-up, and even there, their dominance is in question. To make matters worse for the bots, Limit heads-up is one of the least popular games on the net - some online rooms don't even offer it.

Perhaps the biggest fear regarding pokerbots is having multiple bots collude against one player while sharing hole cards. On the plus side, the same security software that catches real-life players colluding will also catch bots.

It's worth noting that even if you have the misfortune of playing against a bot, it can be beaten.
