    Did he simply just have 2 accounts or was it because he entered the tournament with 2 accounts? I searched and couldn't come up w/ a thread that said exactly to what extent he multi-accounted, I'm sure this has probly been discussed somewhere so throw me a link if it was.

    Nobody really knows, it's all just speculation. 2, 5, 10, 20 accounts, take ur pick.

    How do we even know it was Multi-accounting? Did stars release that info? Not that I recall.

    Seems like I read he had entered 6 accounts.

    play2kill was his original account and the V0id was *supposedly* his "sisters" account.

    I would love a full statement from stars as far as what he did and whether a $1.2M penalty fit the crime. I am glad that Stars didn't let this go, but disappointed they didn't come forth with full details in such a big situation. From how I understand it, he entered with 2 accounts, which is enough to forfeit a prize, and make all multi-accounters think twice about what the penalties could be for their actions.

    My question is, when it was HU, they did a 2nd place save. SO does ka$ino win the original 1st place prize, and since 3rd wins 2nds, do they win the original, or the amount they made a deal on? I am just curious?

    He did not adhere to Stars' Terms and Conditions. Stars says that he entered the Main Event under multiple accounts (5 or 6) and one of those was The Void. All of his accounts were disqualified from the tournament and everyone moved up one place (or more if another of his accounts cashed too) as a result. By being disqualified, it is treated as if he never entered the tournament, so any deals that he made are null and void (ironically). Ka$ino gets the full first place prize.

    No, Stars never said that to my knowledge.

    I digress. I gleaned this information from previous PD, 2+2, and Hendon Mob threads and incorrectly attributed the multi-accounting accusation to the stars' announcement.

    The "crime" was clearly multi-accounting. My guess is that it is more than just 2 accounts. stars probably didn't want to reveal too much details on how they did the investigation so the future cheaters wont get smarter.
