Wait, so it's no longer okay to log onto your friend's account and finish his tournament? Did that change since this story broke? What am I supposed to do when I lose internet connection in the middle of an MTT? When did this become an issue?

Of course not, IF you were both playing in the same tournament. You could be someones grandma for all we know.

The sites need to make that clear though.

From Stars tournament rules:

With trivial exceptions, a player may play on only one account during a tournament. Violation of this rule may result in penalties ranging from a warning, to disqualification from the tournament (with partial or full forfeiture of winnings), to barring from PokerStars.

Examples:
You get a phone call during a PokerStars tournament. You ask your husband, who has already busted out of that tournament, to play your hands for you. You are on the phone for ten minutes and then resume play. This is permitted .

You and a friend, who is a tournament pro, are playing in the same tournament. You agree that if he busts out before you do, he will take over playing your account. This is prohibited .

Your husband is out of town for the weekend, but gives you his password. You log into both his account and yours and play both accounts in the same tournament. This is prohibited .


Is that clear enough?
