Prophetic words in my opinion:

This is the main point here and something that it appears we have missed. The OP quite clearly states...

This needs explaining further because...

It seems that the more you actually look into what the OP has written, the more little details conflict with each other.

IMO the OP is losing more and more peoples support in this thread as time goes on.

I believe if the OP was truely completely innocent he would have no issues with revealing both his and his "wife's" usernames as this would almost instantly clear up this whole debate. If he is innocent, and 2p2 can proove it, which is possible once we get the usernames, then FTP would have very little choice but to re-instate and pay that man his money.

He already stated that he borrowed a laptop for this occasion.

Is this the way pros play poker i doubt this. The argument with the chart can also be taken as a reason why both accounts have same player stats/ style...

Yeah, OP's gonna need to explain that one because that little paragraph alone puts a whole new twist on the entire issue.

Guys if you are going to post opinions and questions then at least read the thread.

On what? Another two monitors can be bought for $300-$400. So that's $800 in total. And for that $800 you get to double your income. It's a no-brainer.

Did it never cross your minds that you would nearly double your income with a second machine? How did that conversation go?
You: "Honey maybe we should spend a couple of hundred on a new machine and we can make an extra 100K+ this year?"
Her: "What?? Thats a terrible idea"

So why not put it in another room if there isn't space in the office. For the amount of money at stake I'd be playing in the hallway if I had to.

Why do you even need two monitors anyway, you play like 3K hands a week. That is an extremely low number for a multitabling poker pro.

What magical features does this computer of yours have that makes it so great? Powerful pcs are only needed for games, video/music/image intesive editing work. They are certainly not needed for playing online poker. All you have to do is buy a machine and get two monitors and you are good to go. Although I don't see why someone playing 3K hands a week would need two monitors anyway.


I just think it is completely ludicrous a husband and wife online poker playing team with 3 kids have one fricking pc in the house. My parents are 60 years old, grown up children have moved out, and are techno-phobic yet they have two laptops in their house. I have aunts and uncles whose kids are also grown up and have moved out, and who are even more completely useless when it comes to pcs, and yet they have two machines in the house.

Your excuse for not having another machine doesn't add up at all. Why are you going on about how you will have to spend 'alot more than $400' (yeah, you'll need $300 for two monitors and thats it), when you it enable you to make an extra 100K+ over the year. I don't think for a second people who are smart enough to beat today 5/10 games are so dumb that they can't see the obvious sense in buying another machine. Therefore I don't believe your story and I think you are playing on both accounts for whatever reason - there have already been speculations from others on that so I'm not gonna go into it.

at least reference who you are aiming this at?

I think the last few posts, mine included, questioning OP on his comments about playing at the same table as his wife are very important and completely justified in asking/commenting.

sure, I'll clutter the thread for you

They borrowed a lap top to play in the one game that was mentioned.

ty, now take your own advice and actually read the questions and points that were raised in my previous post.

Please try reading the whole thread

I can see why ft have flagged your accounts if your wife logs in straight after you and hopefully all is back to normal in a couple of days

omfg, why did I let you suck me in to this. What exactly ever made you think I was talking to you anyway? Can't you see what my post was referencing? Well if you can't, we can just continue to post until you get it. Why not

Come off it, pineapple has a very valid point. Who is this superwife raising 3 kids and crushing 5/10 at the same time. The vast majority of online poker pros are men and highstakes online cash games are the probably the most male dominated form of poker of all. Tell me how many high stakes online cash game pro women you know of....I know of absolutely zero.

LOL. I think you will find i have pretty much been here since the OP and have read the entire thread.

Instead of just making posts like this why not spend your time actually reading the posts like you ask others to. If you do this you will find many inaccuracies in the OP's story which is why this debate is continuing to rage on.

For reference see my previous post a couple up about how he claims to have never played a single hand on the same table as his wife, yet in another statement he clearly talks about what happens if him and his wife do sit at the same table. All of this whilst only owning 1 computer, and only ever having borrowed a laptop 1 time to play 1 tourney together during which they didnt get seated at the same table?!?

ok my apologies. i wasnt attempting to suck you into anything and thought your post was aimed at me. i dont know who/what you were referencing but will leave it as this. apologies again./

OP - personally I think something is off here, to many things that arent quite right.

but - lets not go into that @ the moment,

have you spoken to the site on the phone yet? personally if it was me I would of called the office 100 times a day till I got hold of someone $100K is a lot of wedge chap. have you thought about maybe flying over to there offices?? its not as if they are a shady little company - I mean if what you are saying is true, anyone would of tried these options if it means getting your families money back.

Did a good job i see care to explain why you needed to ask how op and his wife played at the same time?

Yeah he said they played one torney together off a BORROWED comp/lap

Show me where he said him and his wife have sat at the same table?

Exceptional, your reading comprehension is nil. He clearly said that when one signed out and the other signed in they rarely played on the same table the previous one was on. To explain further what you don't understand, if husband is on table A then leaves and wife signs in she doesn't attempt to get back to table A. But sometimes it may happen if there are not that many tables going as she joins the wait list if no tables are open.

He never said they were playing together at the same time. They only have one computer for poker and he didn't say anything that would suggest he has two computers.

Do you comprehend this yet?

to be fair i have quoted him from someone else quoting him so it could be taken out of context, but if that is the case then it needs clearing up.

lol @ this elaborate charade when you would have most likely gotten a warning. lol i bet your wife is f- pissed. she's probably going on and on about how she knew this was a bad idea and how you have just listened to her. the ftp red pros have been guilty of the same thing so you probably wont lose your roll.

lots of holes in your story that have been pointed out by the previous posters and lol @ not posting the sn's because youre scared to get burned.

if you want to prove your innocence you need to post the sn's and pics of your wife.

Exceptional was referring to this post by Andronicus:

I think the questions as to how it could be possible that they ever play on the same table, intentionally or not, are valid, when Andronicus said earlier that they only have one computer.

You have got the wrong end of the stick here obv both cant log in from one comp at the same time think this was more he logged out she logged straight in and joined the table he just left

If you really think there are holes in his story point them out i wish all the other 'ftp closed my account' threads where started by the likes of op it would save alot of time trying to get to the truth

It's quite obv op and his wife just love playing poker in the spare time they do have and to earn some extra $$$

i guess that it was taken out of context then.

Anyway, i think ill just wait for OP to respond with Tilts response from now on. Arguing amongst ourselves gets us nowhere and the truth will out in the end.

All i know is that the story doesnt add up completely and FTP support (as slow and frustraing as they are) do pretty much always get it right in the end.

Here, to clear any confusion I was responding to : the person above me, who also quoted the post of the person who did not read the thread. I've been pointed out that this was confusing on my part, so here's for everyone that was confused.

Here, for your reference: I said "read the thread" to the person who posted 3 above me and to the person directly above me because he quoted him. Take a looksie. Hope this clears it up for everyone.http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/28...6/index18.html

Mike he was on about him logging out and her logging in then sitting on the same table

Think it may have been along the lines of her sweating his session or something like that then logging in

tone of msg to a non-mod...

and to a mod...

FYP

The fact that one computer makes so little sense makes this story look like being actually true. I have an impression that OP and his wife are good naive people. I would guess they try hard to comply with all rules not only in poker but in general in their lives and expect that it is sufficient to avoid being accused of wrongdoing.

What would you do if you wanted to multi-account without being caught?

Yes, this is exactly what you should do OP! Get the second computer. Get the second internet connection. Always make sure you adhere to one account - one computer - one internet connection rule. And last but not least - play together with your wife. It seems neither of you have to make those hard decisions too frequently, so the other one will be available to help most of the time anyway.

Good luck.
