Holdem Bot User Manual

committed whenever they get half of their stack or more into any given hand, especially in SNG’s. In that case you would want this setting at 100%.

Remember the bot makes a comparison of your current stack size to the amount you have invested in the hand. So if you got 50% of your stack in on a given hand that would mean the total Investment now equals 100% of your current stack size.

Option 22: Super Tight Play

– (note this setting also affects Limit games) this setting will have the bot fold all hands preflop except: AA, KK, QQ, JJ, 10-

10, 9-9, AKs, AK, AQs, AQ, AJs, and KQs which it will play normally. Some people like to have the bot play the first half of a tournament for them with this setting before taking over themselves.

Option 23: Semi-Super Tight Play

– (note this setting also affects Limit

games) the same thing as Super Tight Play above but includes all pocket pairs.

Note that the bot will play them by default programming with this setting, which only includes calling minimum raises when holding the smaller pocket pairs. You can use the Set Mining option below in conjunction with Super Tight to call larger preflop raises with smaller pocket pairs if you so desire.

Option 24: Minimum Bet Override

– this setting stops opponents from making a minimum bet into a large pot to get the bot to fold without incurring any risk on their part. It is invoked anytime that an opponent makes a post-flop minimum bet

(exactly 1 big blind in size) in a No Limit or Pot Limit game environment where

the pot is at least 5 big blinds in size and your hand value is best high-card

or better. You can choose how you want to handle this: Call all post-flop minimum bets, raise minimum sometimes and fold sometimes, or raise minimum sometimes and call sometimes.

We recommend always calling in tournaments, and raising minimum sometimes and calling the rest of the time in cash games. Please note that this setting is in the default position when you downloaded your bot which will not recognize minimum bet sizes, so you do need to change this one to your preference.

Option 25: No Limp

– (note this setting also affects Limit games) if you hate limping this setting is for you. We added it after some of our customers shared their Poker Tracker databases with us, making a strong argument against ever limping at all in cash games. While we aren’t quite sold on that concept, we do think it’s a good option for most 6-max cash tables. (There aren’t very many hands the bot will limp with anyway, especially while playing short-handed.)

The setting affects every position except the Big Blind, and when activated will never just call the blind preflop. You can choose how you want to handle the few hands that it would normally limp in with. There is an interesting setting that will
