Disclaimer: I have no personal attitude in this case. Neither I know any of ppl I listed in this post. There are some links to Russian forums ITT, don't be angry, there is no useful info on Russian anyway. Use google translator if you need. BTW, did I post this in correct place?
I wrote about this on some Russian forum (b/c there are Russians involved, I'm also initially from Russia, emigrated later, but this is offtopic). After that I went for a long-long holiday, and as I can see now, nothing changed at all during these 2 months.
I am playing mid-stakes CAP games (up to 2/4), PTRing some regs from time to time and noticed a strange thing. One Belorussian player was break-even (or even worse) @ mid-stakes and had very good run @ high-stakes. That wasn't like 10k hands or so, it was some kind of long run. Belorussian community is not that wide, so there's no need in being Sherlock to uncover the truth.
So lets get back to business. I'm pretty sure that PokerStrategy coach
niabios is playing on 5/10+ cap games @ Stars from more than one acc.
niabios &
obmanusha are his screennames and I gonna prove it.
Firtsly, he wrote there about his statistics for last 2 months (original post date is 05/23).

But check his PTR, he played only 6.5k hands @ 25/50cap alltime, interesting enough already, right?

Check obmanusha's one and see how many hands was played @ mid AND high-stakes. Obmanusha never played 1/2- and 5/10+ at the same time!!
Secondly, he posted in his blog hands from 25/50cap, but he was so stupid to post obmanusha's hands. See it for yourself:

1st hand (with side note "Ruddy (Rudder1ess) eats my brain)

2nd hand

(you don't need ptr acc to see these hands)
and finally

compare 1st hand from this post to

So, I'm about 99.(9)% sure that niabios=obmanusha (at least @ high-stakes). One of trusted members of Russian community,
krondix, wrote that obmanusha must be niabios wife's account, so Stars can't ban them for playing from one IP. I don't know their reason to share one account, maybe it's cool to trick high-stakes regs, playing from break-even acc at level that is way bigger that this acc usually plays.
Please send link to this thread to Stars's security (security@pokerstars.com), not support.
One more thing about Russian community. veyr strange thing, I suppose. After posting this info about 2 months ago on one of Russian forums I got ton of negatives comments like "you rat", "even if he is cheating, how this affects you" and so on. Is it really normal?
