    why are poker sites not easily catching them? i mean isn't it easy to catch someone logging in from the same ip adress? how do sites not catch that theyre cashing out to the same name?

    there is not rly incentive for the sites to catch people with multiple accounts, so they don't actively look, imo.

    multiple accounts playing from the same IP address isn't against any rules (think multiple roommates).

    The account is in their sister/brother/friend/grandma's name, and cash out to that person. Said person gives the multiaccounter the money.

    Isnt it pretty much common knowledge that one account is played on your dsl hi speed and "grandmas" is played on a sprint air card of sorts. Different IP's, but same player ala JJprodigy. I could see some of these "pros" sitting around the house all day with five laptops, five internet connetions, and five accounts (mom, dad,girlfriend, dog, cat) in each tourney. sounds like +EV to me

    If I claimed someone else's account as my second account, could I get their PLBs transferred to my account so I can finally get a pro poll?
