So tomorrow,
I'll be playing in Ether freeroll on Carbon on my desktop
and I was wondering if i could play on Lock on my laptop since I just play tournies on my lock acct.
Am I allowed to do this?
I dont think it should be a problem since I'm not playing in the same tourny

Hi,

I asked this question the other day, and Merge have said this should be fine.

Just a question; so hypothetically speaking if you were on two separate laptops in the same room, it would be "ok" to:

-"Sign" your brother/sister up for a Lock account, and play on one laptop
-On the other laptop you could be playing on your Carbon account and essentially play on the same cash table as your brother/sister??

No, you are not able to play on the same table as far as I understand it.

Playing in two different games is fine, but I don't believe you are able to play at the same cash table.

-You could both be playing on Carbon account's since you are two different people.
-You can register for the same Multi-Table tournament's, but you can't register for the same SNG's* or sit at the same cash table if you are on the same IP.

*Exception is $1.89 $11 coupon 6m satellite, since it is winner take all I think.

There are 6 guys on my internet and half of us have accounts, luckily we don't play the same games/stakes so it usually isn't a problem.

if you attempt to play in the same game or table from 2 different merge accts. you will get message "another account is already registered from your IP)!!!

To Polansky, I wasn't saying I would personally do it, I was just thinking about it and it would be pretty sketchy if you were able to.

Thanks CubFan, I assumed something like that should/would pop up. If there was nothing blocking something like that from happening then I was going to say there's probably a number of people doing it.

Is there an official statement regarding this?

why would there be an official statement? 2 people can play on the same skin on the same ip, they cant sit at the same table.

1 person can play on 2+ skins, but not at the same time, Except for skin exclusive freerolls
