Bonus Bots News

Greetings Fellow Pokerbotters,

We are extremely happy to announce the release of Holdem Bot version 1.5.6, which includes some dynamite post-flop decision making improvements as well as a couple really slick new user options. Here is a breakdown of the new features:

• Post-Flop Bet Size Recognition is now fully programmed in. Many calling and folding decisions are now made by measuring the bet size against the big blind size on all streets. This results in being able to make better calls on the river in NL/PL games, and allows you to loosen up the other settings (as you no longer have to worry about the bot calling off your stack with less than a strong hand).

• New Minimum Bet Override Option. This new setting stops knuckleheads from min-betting you off a large pot. You get to decide how you want to deal with somebody betting only 1 big blind post-flop in a NL/PL game: Always call their stupid bet, or raise minimum sometimes to throw them off kilter.

• The Super Tight setting now overrides the small blind limping. So Super Tight is now really super-tight.

• Small Blind Limping now overrides the Fold or All-In settings. So even with Fold or All-In invoked, the bot will still complete the small blind with any two cards when the pot odds warrant it.

• AQs is now separated from AK on the preflop hand control menu. In some game environments it’s a good idea to play these hands differently (especially in tournaments).

• New No Limping Option – never limp again if that’s your thing. This is a good idea for many 6-max cash games. You get to decide what the bot should do with the few preflop hands that it would normally just call the blind with when you turn this option on: Raise instead, fold instead, or raise sometimes and fold sometimes randomly based on card color.

We are certain you’ll want to get cracking with this totally cool upgrade. As always, all existing license holders can download the new version here:

Although we have received a lot of raving feedback from version 1.5.4 (mostly in private emails from customers asking us to keep quiet about it), we aren’t done yet! Already we have started working on the next upgrade, which will improve playing decisions even more. That should be ready fairly soon, and we have decided to hold the price at $129 until then. So you still have a few days to purchase the best poker bot ever created for a ridiculously rock bottom price.

Happy Botting,

Omaha/8 version 2.3.0 has been posted.

• Bug playing AA hands in NL games has been fixed. The way the bot handles this now is if there has been any action whatsoever it goes all-in with any AA hand (there must be at least 1+ call or raise). If there has been no action yet, meaning no calls or raises, it plays AA hands as normal – which means folding some of them.

• Fold or All In triggered by number of hands in session added, same as Holdem Bot now

• Saving profiles added, same as Holdem Bot now

The new version can be downloaded now, here:

Greetings Poker Botters,

A few days ago we released an upgrade for our Holdem Bot, version 1.5.4. In case you missed the announcement, we wanted to make sure you were aware of it and outline some of the new features.

Improved decision-making programming in this version includes new preflop bet-size recognition technology and reduced limping in early position at 9/10 max tables. We also reduced the frequency at which the bot will make a Turn bluff in NL/Pl games.

The bot will now call all small blind hands where there have been 1 or more callers and no raises, taking advantage of the huge pot odds that this situation creates. (It will of course still fold the great majority of hands if the big blind raises.)

We also added a few new items to the option menu, including:

• KQs is now added to the preflop user-control menu

• Fold or All In can now be invoked by number of hands played in the current session

• New super-tight option will make the bot fold all hands preflop except AA, KK, QQ, JJ, 10-10, 9-9, AKs, AK, AQs, AQ, AJs, and KQs. (Some of our customers wanted to have the bot play the first half of tournaments for them this way.)

As always, all existing license holders get the upgrade for free. You can download the new version here:

We are working on another upgrade with some more new options that should be absolutely awesome. We hope to have that done in about a week. We expect to finally raise the price of the license fee at that time, so you have until then to steal this product for just $129.

Greetings Fellow Poker Botters,

We are happy to announce the release of Holdem Bot version 1.5.3,
which is going to make most of you very happy. In addition to
fixing various NL/PL bugs in the prior version (that affected both
Full Tilt and Ultimate Bet), we added a couple highly requested new
features.

The most important one is the ability to save your option settings
as a profile. This was a much-needed time saver, as the option
menu is getting so long now that having to go through and change it
for a different game environment was becoming a bit of a chore. You
can read new the instructions for saving profiles on this thread:

The other new feature has to do with the hide button. On the new
version the Hide function will search out available call-back
buttons on F10, then F11, then F12. This should fix those of you
who have not been able to hide the bot due to another program using
F10. It also allows up to three instances of the bot to be hidden
for those of you who keep forgetting to call it back, and also
those of you with large screens insisting on attempting to
multi-table.

As always, all existing license holders can download the new
version free, here:

We are working on a follow-up upgrade with playing improvements
that we hope to have out next week. When we release that we expect
to implement the next price increase in the license fee, so you
probably have about a week left to get it at $129. As a final
reminder, we are also going to raise the price on the Omaha/8 bot
to $89 in the next few days – so this is your final opportunity to
get that one for $79.

That’s it for now. Happy botting!

Greetings Poker Botters,

We are happy to announce the release of Omaha/8 Poker Bot Version 2.2.9, which features:

• Many PL/NL Playing Improvements, including some that use bet size recognition in it’s decisions.

• A new Aggressive Tournament Option, which when set will invoke raising more aggressively with reasonably strong hands on non-threatening boards. Using this new option is a great way to play tournaments and SNG’s.

• A very effective NL Cash Game Strategy has been programmed into this bot now. When it holds aces preflop and there is 1+ call or raise it moves all-in, looking for fish who will call without the other aces. It will also move all-in against one opponent post-flop when holding a two-way hand that the opponent would have to use all four cards in order to scoop.

If you don’t understand how powerful that is, go to twodimes.net and play around with the Omaha Hi-Lo calculator. Give one hand the worst aces hand you can think of and one other opponent the best other O8 hand you can come up with and compare the scoop percentage results against an unknown board. You will see that anybody who calls without the other aces is literally handing you money, and there are definitely players who do that in this game!

With these new features we feel that this poker bot is now a serious threat in any Omaha Hi-Lo game of any structure. As always, all existing license holders get the upgrade for free. You can download it here:

Considering how well this bot plays now, the current $79 price tag is way, way, waaayyy too low. It isn’t staying there for very long. But we will hold it at that price through the weekend to give you one last chance at a true bargain.

Happy botting,
