most likely

so they set an account up 2 months ago, you've got to start one up at some point. You want him to enter 5-10high stakes MTTs before he can ship one?

did anyone ever find out who is
CrabMaki?

It seems like every time these kind of threads are going on there are always a few guys insisting that it's just some lucky donk and everyone is retarded for not realizing it. In most of those cases it turns out that the account belongs to some high stakes player's brother... or grandmother... Stop being so naive

This.

99.8% of the skilled players in the world who are rolled to play in these events already has an account on stars or Full Tilt. Any new (-er) accounts are multi-accounters or the new accounts of formerly underage players.

And the whole Darvin Moon, Jerry Yang argument holds NO water because we can actually see these people playing their cards. We know that it wasn't someone sitting over their shoulder telling how to play every hand.

Maybe, but it doesn't matter. A lot of us knew before we even OPR'd anyone that there would be shady accounts--just like every other time there is a major tournament series on one of the big sites.

Regardless, the reality is probably somewhere in between what you two are saying and what Itghtuhadkk said. Some are almost undoubtedly new accounts that are LEGIT, some are HS cash players and some are MA's, but there is nothing we can do but speculate. Anyone who is +EV in these tourneys as a MA'er shouldn't be retarded enough to get caught with so much money on the line.

So, I ask, what's the point in speculating anymore?

i tagged 2 guys yesterday as MultiAccounters... this isnt suprising and its actually standard, get used to it

The Moon and Yang arguement is dumb....The 10k ME plays like a 26er and the 10k WCOOP plays....well......like a 10k WCOOP.

This...you can't compare morons who run awesome in live tourneys when you can ACTUALLY find out who they are, to 10k wcoop winners in the toughest field ever. The Main Event also plays like a deepstacked 10 buck freezeout. 10k is a deepstack reg fest.

Just an interesting hand I seen earlier from Crab. Kinda hints against it being a MA'er IMO and also nothing against Deeb. Sick hand tho!
