sandwedge 30 Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 I was just playing 25c/50c nl on stars. Something came up in the chatbox, in big, website type lettering, that said that I needed to type in the code that I saw to continue playing. It said that this was to prevent automatic playing systems (bots). It was the type of code that you often have to type to enter websites. I did it and continued playing.Has anybody else seen this?

onlyme386 0 Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 You must have been playing such fundamentally sound poker that they just wanted to make sure you aren't a bot. Congrats! Link to post Share on other sites
gatortom64 1 Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 They are installing captcha software to make sure you are a person, not a bot. Link to post Share on other sites

aucu 3 Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 If you mix up your games with a bit of stud and 2-7 they will never think that you are a bot. Link to post Share on other sites

Turbo Dog 1 Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 I will never be confused with a bot, unless they start programming tilting spewbots, but hypothetically:How would I know to enter these codes if I almost always have chat turned off? I usually have the stats or notes tab open when I play cash games, and the info tab open when I play tournaments.Does the message really come across the chat box, or is it in the middle of the table like tournament announcements, or both?

And it doesn't look like ordinary text, it's one of those graphics-generated images like this: Link to post Share on other sites
