Although she is a star, i believe Pokerstars shouldnt give her winnings back. Their Terms and Conditions are very clear about this subject. It is forbidden! Ok, some of us have had an acount 10 years ago somewhere and now return to play there and creat another acount because they didnt remember. They live in other address, other phone number, other nick name and poker room doesnt suspects of ilegal action, but it is! There should be more ways of poker rooms control ilegal activities, so users can know from the start and not only when they try to withdraw their winnings.
Darreman your comment is about as welcome as swineflu. Unnecessary.Every day us women put up with attitudes like yours in poker and it stinks. I wouldn't mind but most of you chauvinists can't play for ****. Oh you can win but you sure as hell can't play She did something wrong for whatever daft reason it's not a gender issue.The way shes been dealt with is as it should be.Rules are rules we might not always like them but if you choose to break them suffer the consequences. No sympathy here.

Lets face it if she cheats like this on 1 site she will do it on all. What happens if you cheat in vegas? you get a sore bum right.. So should she, this is day light robbery. But the sites need to do more than they do to stop this action. I could if I wanted to do this on UB. Ironic how she is wearing black and white stripes.

Just ignore such comments, by reacting to it you give him what he wants (be Annie Duke, let them think you suck at poker and take their money)

Ridiculous. There are far more grievous abuses of the rules happening on every site daily than someone having multiple accounts. I think if you were to really get down to it this probably happens far more often than anyone knows.
By your reasoning than those people who come back after 10 years and create a new account are just as guilty as those who knowingly create another account. So should those people some point down the road have their winnings appropriated by the site?
In my opinion her tourney history should be checked and anywhere her second account shows up her winnings for that tourney should be forfeit.

Multiaccounting seems to be common on stars. She is not the first half way known player who did this. Stars usually locks the accounts, at least for some time.

This is completely irrelevant to anything and refrain from mysoginistic propaganda because we all know you are compensating for your own poor performance both at the table and other possible locations. You fail at life btw.

Well for those of us not from Sweden friend (and I use the term loosely), if you are going to post ridiculous comments based upon articles by others I suggest you produce links.
Also the fact that she is a woman who may be complaining about something does not make it 'feminist shiet'. That's all I have to say about it and will respond no more to ridiculously unsupported opinions. Thank you and good bye.

I will have to take your word on it since I don't know what it says. However, in the future if you want to make claims like you did in your original post give sources or keep your opinion to yourself because comments like those you made will not be looked upon kindly by the civilized members of this site.

agreed. she deserves a permanent ban.
it would be an bad example if pokerstars is not gonna ban her anyways. i remember durrr had also 2 accounts as he won a huge tourny on PS. wonder what happen to him? guess superpros have special privilegs. if thats the case then im also gonna do multiaccount. its sad to read when a pro who has the money and the skill needs to cheat and take advantage of multiaccount.
