20hr events practically demand account sharing...

"Obviously i could be way off on all of these people who could just be huge luckboxes but i think pokerstars should be checking to see if these accounts were played from their normal IP or if they are connected to other accounts. "

Why that?


666 INRI (At table 666) ^^

Jealous much?

So when I went from a break even 25NL player to winning 10R's I was multi-accounting?

No I just started to learn what I'd read and not play like a donk.

Knock off the paranoid conspiracy theories, you do know someone has to win? So if you put 100 $2 SNG players in a tournament one of them would have to win?

You do understand that concept right?

Huh? 10r's are like the same thing as 25nl. That doesn't prove anything.

Our point is that like..YESTERDAY he was playing 4$ SNG's, and losing. Now he's playing a 530$ tourney for 17.5 hours and playing damn near perfect pre-flop poker. There's suchhhh a huge difference.

He was also the first guy to ask for a chop at the FT. Would someone who bought out his account ask for this? Does Chris Moneymaker come to mind?

Wow, Its WCOOP, tons of players who never play at pokerstars play these events because its the WCOOP. I do agree that the fredmainiac guy is suspiciously good to be playing 4$ sng's, I dont know when he played them though.

I don't totally agree with this. Sure, the WCOOP brings in a few random people to play the events, but for the most part, what it does is just make sure EVERYONE who plays tournies online is in the events.

I don't know anyone outside of the MTT world who has any idea what the WCOOP is, and even if they did I don't think they would specifically show up to play events. Even my 2p2 cash game friends, who play on Stars, don't pay attention to anything and have no real idea about anything the WCOOP has to offer.

Key point, obviously PokerStars should probably check all players as they usually do but I dont think we should label anyone weve never heard of as definite cheats. (altho someone losing at low end sng's and then transforming into this guy weve seen here is suspicious)

where did u heard it luckyloyd? on live events are they playing for 17hours straight? i think it should be 2 days event. that way 17hours straight if there are 2 poker players on a house they get an advantage... obviously

and fatalerror dont be so jealous with the guys.

[/ QUOTE ]

I have played live tournaments that run 16+ hrs. In Ireland, even one day live events have very good structures. It is standard for €200 - €500 events to run for over 12 hours. And multi - day tournies will sometimes have the second day go over 12 hours if neccesary.

However, has no - one ever worked 24 hrs straight? Never worked a long shift; played poker all night and gone into work the next day? Never played a live cash session in vegas for a sick amount of hours?

Come on folks. I agree that two day tournies would be a good idea. But I could put up with this if I had gotten this far. The money is very, very good at this point.

I'm going to bed, so I'm not gonna argue. But why do you laugh?

I don't know anyone outside of 2p2/P5's/whatever MTT people who think the WCOOP is a BIG deal. It does attract some people, but it's not something that people plan their lives around or anything. Especially now that it is so hard to get money on/off of sites for Americans. John Doe, the random guy who plays at your local casino who saw the WCOOP ad in Cardplayer probably can't even get 530$ online to play in this tournament.
