It's noy MY definition, it's THE definition. Yes, you are a multiaccounter, even if Tilt allowed it. What was your good reason to change names and fool everyone you'd ever played against on Tilt anyway?

Obviously there is no scandal if Dave cleared his switch with FT, but when he says things like "I've never multiaccounted in my life. 1 screenname per site, period" and clearly has two on Full Tilt... I'd hardly call pointing that out looking for a needle in a haystack.

KSOT, you're an idiot.

Is Hollywood Dave multiaccounting if he has 2 names? Yes to the truest form of the word "multiaccounting" (to have more than 1 account)

Is Hollywood Dave using both his accounts to gain an upper edge somehow? No.

Did Brian Townsend use both his accounts to gain an upper edge? Yes. He used 1 account no one knew belong to him to gain the upper edge on people which he had reads on people and they had none on them.

What Hollywood Dave is doing is what a ton of other people have done to get rakeback on FTP.

What Brian Townsend did is no where close to what Hollywood Dave is doing. To put them in the same field is moronic.

Regardless to him being guilty or not, I personally feel as if I'm in a safe zone while being in a thread with many others who have such a solid understanding as to what a total douche holywood dave is.

Didn't *TT* also defend Jason Ho when his scam was first discovered?
Maybe I'm thinking about someone else

I read the thread

[x] multi-accounting

If this is multi-accounting, then everybody who has ever gotten divorced and married a different spouse should be arrested for bigamy.

at best thats unethical and at worst thats way against the ftp TOC. Why wouldnt he tell everyone who he played with that hollywood dave was his old account? he gained an edge on every person he had history with by not outing himself.

How exactly would he have gone about doing this? By typing "I'm Hollywood Dave!" into the chatbox every 15 seconds? Which would have been hilarious, but still...

Jeez...according to a previous post that account he is using has been exclusively used since August 2008. There is no angle shooting going on here. That's all that matters.

TT - I understand you aren't saying you condone HD acting like a douche. But I'm curious do you condone his antics just to be popular?

Right. I guess that's that then.
Time to find something else for the teenage 2+2 knownowts to jump to the wrong conclusions about.

Anyone?

Being your friend does not make him immune from being perceived as a douchebag.
I have played with Dave several times, and although his antics don't bother me any, I can see why most people would think he is a douchebag. He is the same in person as he acts on TV.

people are only crucifying Hollywood Dave for this relatively minor offense due to the fact that he is such an overwhelming douche in everything he does.... also people distrust midgets

calling stuff like this a minor offense gives a pass to anyone who does it for whatever reason- and that can't be right.

Is ampallang, or oneleveldeep the second account name?

Does Pokernews.com troll NVG for tidbits to use on their website?

allen you don't owe an apology, dave is still breaking full tilt TOS, making a 2nd account for any reason is still multiaccounting (just not the really really bad kind)

Sometimes, even if they come from "respected" players.

Of course, you could find this out if you go to those sites yourself.

so are you for crucifying people that changed their account 1+years ago to get a rakeback deal and are "multiaccounting"?

also, to charder, I respect you so your opinion is somewhat valid, however, do you think that people he has "notes" on, those people won't get notes on him? also, as far as i know, Dave only plays tournaments and small ones at that. It's not like he's getting a gigantic edge.

What brian townsend did was multiaccount to gain the upper edge on players he had notes on and players had no notes on him. All the while he was being sponsered by FTP.

Hollywood Dave is not.

Also, For all those jumping on dave's back for "multi-accounting", he is no worse or better than the people that do this to get rakeback. He has committed no huge crime, so lets stop treating him like this is a huge scandal.

That's a fantastic example. We're all huge fans of Phil Laak's antics as well.

It depends on which "we" you're talking about.

Take a vote.

I'd rather watch Phil/Antonio's antics any day of the week rather than Howard Lederer and Chris Ferguson.

Not to mention Phil/Antonio are better than Chris/Howard at NL holdem anyways.

Lets be honest. The severity of most offenses in poker is limited to how good the player is who committed it. The worse the player, the more leeway they get.

Obviously a losing player is not gaining much if any by changing his screen name even though it can be a huge advantage for a winning player whether or not it was done for that reason or insecurity and should be handled as such.

Keep calling string bets on fish and see what that gets ya

Oh he's no worse than someone who breaks a contract with their affiliate to the detriment of his opponents for his own personal gain. Gotcha.
