A (few) word(s) of caution

Effort

This is a lengthy manual, and for good reason. This is a complicated hobby with a steep learning curve. If you are reading this and coming into this hobby for the first time, and you have the expectation of running a profitable poker bot tomorrow, then we kindly suggest you close this manual and look elsewhere. This hobby is very rewarding, intellectually, academically and monetarily, but that reward does not come without effort. Maybe one of the $20 pre-packaged bots will meet your needs, if truly all you want to do is to MakeMoneyFast.

Scams

There are people who will try to sell you partial or complete OpenHoldem-based poker bot solutions. The same warning applies to these offers as to the $20 click-Setup.exe-and-go poker bots. Ask yourself how much you would sell a complete poker bot for if it was profitable and made you money every day, even while you were sleeping? A simple calculation should clarify this point:

- Say you have a pokerbot that makes $2 per table per hour. Most sites allow you to run 4 tables simultaneously without issue. This equates to $8 per hour.

- Further assume you run your bot 6 hours per day to better model human play. That gives you $48 per casino per day.

- If you the run your bot 5 days per week, you stand to make $12,480 per year.

Multiply that by the number of casinos you play at, and you have a reasonable target selling price. Would you be willing to pay that amount of money for an unproven, "complete", "winning" poker bot? How much do you think a $100 or $500 "complete" poker bot is really worth?

There is a long history of people being scammed out of hard earned money for "winning" poker bot solutions. Sometimes lots of money. Don't be stupid...the age-old maxim applies here: if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
