    Anyone else interested to see how many entrants there are for the Sunday majors and the party million. It would be poetic if stars and Party had to cover shortages because of their lax enforcement of multiple accounts in the past.

    I think Stars may be short this week as some of the mult-accounters get wary.

    I will admit that I do sometimes play under different screen names - usually a buddy's. I do it just for the anonymity. It's fun sitting next to players who you've played with dozens of times and then watch them try to bully you out of a pot because they don't know your moves. Sometimes its just nice to sit quietly and play without having to be sociable.

    While I'm being honest, I did play two accounts in one Sunday major before. Had two computers setup, one on dial-up, one on high speed for the different IP addresses. Thought I was being slick. I felt bad the whole time, sweating the details, trying to play two different keyboards, and two different mouses, and I played extremely poorly on BOTH accounts because I knew I was cheating. I was terrified to be on the same table or to go deep on both accounts. It's just not worth it. I was actually relieved to bust out with the second account. There are so many tourneys on so many sites that there's really no need to sell-out and cheat to this degree.

    For the record, my other screen name is JohnnyBax.....

    Neither one will have to cover anything, the multi-accounting wasn't nearly that widespread IMO. Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't think you'll notice a difference.
