Smart Poker Software Tracks Behavior

When poker players sign up for a poker account they choose a username. Players can easily create new accounts with different names, which can make it hard to stop cheaters who simply activate new accounts after they are caught the first time. A new poker software will read players’ behaviors to give them a virtual "fingerprint" of sorts, helping the poker rooms keep track of poker fraud and fake accounts. In addition the software can help stop the growing trend of poker bots, software programs that play and masquerade as human players.
