Explain This...

[grando]

2 players from the same town sitting beside each other with virtually the same name - what are they doing? wild speculation ONLY please:

[MicroBob]

ummmm, wow and wtf??

[funkymunky]

Well, at least they're subtle about it.

Ok, It looks suspicous but I highly doubt they were cheating.

Heres why:

Occasionally a buddy of mine and I play on Party in the Sit N Go's.

He usually calls me up and asks if I want to play some poker online. We do it for fun, nothing else and we don't cheat or share cards in any way. We play 1 table and generally just donk it up, I do anyway, he takes it pretty seriously.

Our accounts at one point were flagged and temporarily suspended pending investigation which was eventually cleared up.

My name at the time was Clubhopper1 and he was Clubhopper2 or something like that. Almsot identical names and we both live in the same city.

Anyways our account were flagged because some player got suspicious and thought we were the same person, and e-mailed Party.

Anyways party reviewed the Hand histories and unfroze our accounts. We never played together as a team and our HH proved that. ( I 8 tabled the 6 max games at Party at the time so I had better things to do then to cheat at a $10 Sit N Go.)

After the investigation, Party requested that one of us change our screen name to prevent this from happening again in the future, which we did.

Anyways we still donk it up on the $10 Sit n Go's from time to time just under different names.

On a side note, I sat down at Party 3 months ago and on 1 of my tables there was a guy with the name Speccial_K who was from Toronto and my screen name is Sppecial_K and I am from Oshawa which is about 30 minutes away.

It looked suspicous and I was all set to get another "frozen account" message that night. It Never happened

They are not cheating, it's to obvious

Nice catch. If these two were going to cheat it would not be like this. They are at the very least not thinking too clearly though. Why arouse suspicion?

[JOHNY CA$H]

They're definately terrorists.

I once had an account on Empire that had a characters name from a movie, followed by a 1. One time, I had a person with that characters name, AND a guy with the same name and a 3 at the end, ALL at a 6 max table. no lie.

[Insp. Clue!So?]

The other three guys must've thought they were playing against the Cylons.
