Just found out I have 2 PokerStars accounts... Will deleting my 2nd account allow me to play?

So apparently when I was 16/17 I created a PokerStars account to play with play money, and maybe freerolls (I forget if I did or not, but I know I never cashed any of them). I'm also fairly certain I said I was 18 to create the account. I only played for a few weeks, then stopped playing poker until I turned 18. I was never gifted the free $5 by PokerStars that some people get.
When I turned 18 I created a new account because I forgot about my old account I used to play on. I used my real information this time, and have been playing/depositing on this account since. When I found out I had another account, I was worried I'd get banned from PokerStars, but it hasn't happened yet.
I want to keep playing on PokerStars, but I'm worried that I'll continue playing/depositing money without issues, and when I decide to withdraw I'll be banned and my money will be taken. I'm worried that even if I delete my 2nd account now, I will be punished for having 2 accounts/lying about my age anyways. Do I have to find a new site because of these stupid mistakes I made?

Message support and ask them to delete your alt. I had the same situation and they simply did so.

I'm in the same boat. Signed up under age but just to play playmoney and set my year of birth 1 year older. When I reached legal age, I had to email them and tell the truth and they were ok with that.
