"why would they care, because if their bots are winning, they dont have to pay out the purses...."

rock climbers rate climbs on 2 scales. difficulty and exposure. difficulty doesn't need to be explained. exposure is the rating of what happens to you if you fall. a low exposure is you skin your knee on some granite. a high exposure is your femur introduces itself to your lungs.

the websites make their nut on churn, same as the racetracks. what you are suggesting is they are risking everything (hello lung! hello femur!) to make a marginally higher return. would you do that if you were scraping $0.50-$3.00 off hundreds of tables every few minutes?

"When you go into a casino, you dont mind if the house employs players to try to clean up at the tables, at least they have no advantage other then their own personal skills."

live casino's don't employ people to clean up at the tables. they pay players to start games or fill out short tables. the casino gets no part of the prop's winnings and are not responsible for any part of what they lose. they pay an hourly wage same as they do to dealers/chip runner's/food and beverage service. their calculation is more players = more rake. and prop's help fill out short tables. if you're one of those players you have to be willing to be told what game and what limit you're to sit at. and you get up and leave as soon as they need to fill another game. regardless of how juicy the table you just started might be. it's a f'in grind.

"If your playing someone who knows what everyone has and what the cards are going to be.... you can't win."

so if you lost this is a very convienent excuse to not look at the holes in your own boat.
