BrasilNut, as moderate winning player in ssnl games on Betfair poker is a multi accounting **. He posts hands on a betting forum www.laytheodds.com under his Betfair SN but because he's too dumb to use a HH converter, it exposes the SN of his second account, which is Malaka22.

Just thought that anyone who plays with him regularly might like to know that they're sharing a table with a **.

Here is a link to one of his posts that clearly shows him playing under a second account.

FFsmd - my stance is not about the rules being enforced - its about labelling him a ** that uses two accounts to exploit people - the thread sounds like collusion, but (accepting the situation that we believe you can only have one account) its more about breaking the terms and conditions as opposed to directly defrauding players.

Another term and condition is:
2.4 Betfair reserves the right to amend your Poker nickname and/or alias in its absolute discretion if it believes the same to be defamatory, offensive, pornographic or in any way intended to impersonate a real person or brand.


Now the alias Malaka is a greek swear word - and thats offensive :D


does this mean that because he chose a swear which ALSO breaches terms and conditions is he a **?

im not saying its right - im saying it does not make him a **

Having multi accounts is a bit different and potentially miles more serious than having an alias which means something rude in a particular language, surely?

Pretty ridiculous comparison, tbh.

That's a bit like saying doing 31mph and 100mph in a 30 zone is both breaking the rules.

Section 14.8 of the T&C's states that your email is now superseded. There is no rule, term, condition or law that states a person is limited to a single account. In fact the T&C's state that your account transactions are to be governed by the [seperate] T&C's relating to the main exchange site, [not the same company or country], and there is no restriction on accounts there either.

You may believe that there should be one, or expect there to be one etc etc and this is pretty much covered by section 14.3 which specifically states that the agreement is outwith the United Nations Convention on Contracts, which would [maybe] allow for a party to claim common expectations on ambiguous areas.

So as far as I can see, there is no rule, Brazilnut is doing no wrong and if you believe he holds an unfair advantage over you then this is only because you are not matching him in maximising his edge by using two accounts.

If you genuinely feel that it is an unfair playing field, [ruling or not], then play on another site that does have and does uphold this same rule.

Or is it just a witch hunt against Brazilnut?

The OP might have a witch hunt against him but that is not my motive.It is just typical of Betfair to have different rules for different people.It was in the t&c's as I distinctly remember reading it and my e-mail is dated 11th Feb 2010 so if it has changed then it is recent.And brasilnut was playing his malaka account last year anyway as were all the others.

So it is ok now to open unlimited accounts with various affiliates and take the sign-up bonuses before moving to the next account?No wonder Klup is not against it!And HEM and pokertracker etc will now become virtually useless as no-one will be playing under the same aliases?

At least it will now be a level playing field then.

As for people complaining that multi accounters make HEM and PT less useful well to them I say dee fecking dums because if anything is ruining online pker it is these tools.

For the record I have two sports accounts but only one active poker account so have no real axe to grind in this but I have 7 different ipokey accounts and 3 different paradise poker accounts and that is not breaking any rules and doesn't help me as I am shiite on all of them.

Brasilnut plays a lot on the fixed limit tables, and has at least two other aliases. Chats a lot at the tables and all aliases chat in exactly the same style so very likely they are used by the same person.

Saying someone having 2 poker accounts is the same as colluding is retarded logic. For a fact, I have seen brasilnut and malaka22 playing at the same time but never at the same table.

Worth a question in the Q&A session so we all know where we stand.


I get the impression that, when they actually DO take place, the Q&A sessions tend to only answer the easy questions and ignore the difficult ones.

As the suspicion of collusion is probably one of the most important issues for online poker generally, and BF in particular, it might be an idea that when the next Q&A session takes place people ONLY ask direct questions about it at the expense of other, relatively minor topics.

iIt is unnerving at all stake levels to knock one username out of an mtt only to find there are 6 more of them with basically the same name, and probably sitting within 3 or 4 yards of each other, still to get through.... and when they use the same usernames with different suffixes they are the easy ones to identify.

Must be a way to prevent the same ip addresses from playing in the same tournies... I know ip addresses can be mucked about with but I am sure that IS against the T&Cs.

How much clearer do you want it? Why not phone BF for clarification?

* The reason for it being this clear is because it is easily communicated to you in the T&C's, and everyone knows that they are the cornerstone of any rules in existence. To avoid any further doubt they included section 14.8.

Klup-stop contradicting yourself.So now it is **ing but not high priority-jesus.

The facts are this-the rule is confusing for starters and needs clarifying.If it has changed then it has happened very recently.Secondly,Betfair need to be 100% consistent in enforcing their rules or doubts,as expressed in this thread,will always creep in.

You then say that you play tournaments so you don't see it-well don't profess to know it all then.I could name at least 4 regulars on limit cash who play different accounts on a daily basis.It begs the question as to why they do this and no one has an answer.

Everyone sussed that malaka was brasilnut about a year ago so the OP's comments are not as much of a revelation as he thinks.FWIW this was confirmed by brasil/malaka in chat but since then he has gone back to his old account and flitted between the two.Only he can say why and only Betfair can say why they allow him to do it but stop others.

However trivial a rule may seem it is surely imperative that they are all adhered to by everyone particularly when money is involved.It is common sense as well that 1 poker alias per person would make it far easier to monitor other issues such as collusion or chip-dumping.For these reasons I do not understand why everyone doesn't agree on this unless they have an ulterior motive.

If anybody has observed the old BrasilNut of 6 months ago in limit games and the new one in limit games you will discover that they are NOT the same player as the new BrasilNut is a complete fish and the old one is a decent winning player (and thus how can this ever be multi-accounting????)

As others have said, it's not really **ing (Sharkscope has over 30 skins covered by the I-Poker umbrella) but it is sharp practice, mainly used to get action from players who might otherwise choose to avoid you (and can exercise their right to choose on better sites or live), or by hyper-aggressive players who prevent others from guaging their range by continually switching accounts.

Nothing will ever be done about it on Betfair, though, because in the main it's the high stakes/rakers doing this and neither the site, or the affiliates, will let fair play get in the way of a pocketful of coin. I share the OP's surprise at Klup's continual dismissal of this, bearing in mind his efforts to create a Betfair community.

Oh Jim-you are so butch.

I cannot continue to discuss this matter with you any further as I need to close this account as my latest sign-up bonus is cleared.I have opened a new one via some greek blokes affiliate site who says I can keep opening as many as I want as long as I don't tell anyone.

My next post will be under the forum name the neckwinder-look out for me Jim.

There are some sad people on this thread buts that enough about Jim and Klup! :o

I think you wll find it is not brazilnut that this fingerzzz person has a problem with it is Klup. Yes he is Greek, yes he is a fish, yes he is lodged firmly up Betfairs harris but he is just a big cuddly teddy bear who would help out anyone and genuinely puts himself out for other people. This makes him popular and people like fingerzzz have never been popular so love to attack peope like him from behind their keyboards. Very sad really.

But as previously asked, where in the T&C's does it say no more than one active account? Until you can answer this question Mr Fingerzzz I think you should really keep quiet and stop embarrassing yourself!

Please see the Q an A thread tonight.Like I said it is the rule but the fact it is not enforced on some people makes it worthless.I won't play here much if it doesn't change.

I accept your apology Jim.

Klup-I read back through this thread and I think I was a bit harsh to you doubting your integrity so I apologise.

GL all.

Fingerzz - fair enough mate, we all get excited in debates / arguments.

At times it inevitably looks like im defending betfair, but it only appears like that as i generally like to believe I look at all three sides to the story - glass half full, half empty, or half a glass too much :D

Brasilnut himself admitted it so stfu.

While you're here-can you confirm that you now have only 1 active poker account or are you going to continue to play on your scandiuk,ukscandi,ka ka etc accounts?

It sums Betfair up when a prop guilty of multi-accounting has no fear of posting on a thread about the same subject.

Hi JPJ,

There is nothing preventing customers from having several accounts on Betfair but you are only allowed one active poker account.

.................................

I think there was a thread a few days ago where it was shown that this wasn't the case. Your views on it would be interesting.

Good luck


Clear enough?

my Q was a lead in to the collusion stuff but I obviously asked it when everyone had gone on an extended tea break so never actually got an answer.


So what do you mean by this Jim?You keep asking the same question about the t&c's-Betfair answered the question on their policy so what is your point and why would your question be a lead into collusion?
Report Jim Royle April 27, 2010 9:56 AM BST
Because if there is nothing in the T&Cs about having more than one active poker account, then the fact that someone from customer services states that it is not allowed means they are either repeating something that has no legal basis or making it up as they go along.

If that is the case then how are people to take seriously any statements by a member of customer services that bf are acting on demonstrated instances of collusion when the stock answer is to hide behind the Data Protection Act which may or may not be applicable under Maltese law... (not an expert on Maltese law so couldn't comment)
Report Fingerzz April 27, 2010 10:09 AM BST
Yeah I agree-problem is they have different rules for different people which is probably why it has been removed from the t&c's.

Jim is right, they should have qualified their answer by printing the relevant t/c paragraph.
Report Big K April 27, 2010 5:38 PM BST
I know a couple of people that multi-account, simply because the poker software is so resource intensive (i.e. poorly written) that they can't open the number of tables that they want on a single laptop. Therefore they have two accounts and play on two laptops side by side.

Anyone tracking their stat's will get the same figures on both accounts, so there really isn't any disadvantage there.

Besides, this is one of those issues where it would be impossible for any legislation to be enforced. If someone wants to multi-account, they can set up a new account using a friend's name and address and there would be absolutely no way to link the new account with the old one. This being the case, whether or not we are happy with multi-accounting is really irrelevant - its always going to be an aspect of online poker.

Still no evidence of **ing.
Still no T&C's to show that multiple accounts is **ing.
Your witch hunt is just a personal grudge.

No change here then?

I have had a couple of emails from Betfair with regards the question i asked relating to this thread. They wanted to know which thread i was talking about so that they could look into it and hopefully addreass peoples concearns.

So maybe just leave it and see if they comment as they do seem to want to clear up any confusion.

Cheers :)
Report Jim Hensen April 27, 2010 8:29 PM BST
Fingerzz. You admitted earlier in the thread that it was a personal grudge and not a moral crusade. Don't make out otherwise now. The fact remains that you labelled someone a **, when he was not, (or not for any reason you cited). This has been explained to you on several ocasions and yet you have ignored it and moved your goalposts slightly.

If BF have allowed some, but not others to use multi accounts then your grudge should be with them, (though as it stands you have no recourse as it is soley at their discretion unless in T&C's), yet your grudge is with someone else and this is your pathetic keyboard warrior attempt at petty revenge?

Can I ask if you are up or down against Brazilnuts?

Thanks for the offer of a night out, but No Baahaa ;-)

In theory BF should now act to either make the policy apply to all, or state that it is at their sole discretion. On the other hand it is BF so anything could happen. Either way why not take your crusade to them instead of singling out one person and posting defamatory remarks about them on here?

Read the thread back Jim and get your facts straight.

Wrong theory again-I am up on brasil as it happens as I am sure he would confirm.I actually quite like him as a bloke at the tables as well but he knows my feelings on his multi-accounting.

I have voted with my feet and play mainly elsewhere but would come back here ft if this was sorted.

You really are a fool.

Again I pass the offer of a night out. I tend to spend time with folk who are more fun and way more intelligent. But thanks anyway.

And a massive LOL at refusing to play on a site because one person has two accounts which you know about. Not because of all the other faults, but because of your grudge with Brasilnuts. Seriously, you knobend.
