I dont see anything wrong with it- but one table= boring.

Re: is this considered cheating?
 

Online this is not considered cheating (I recall a site specifically saying this could not be policed online, and so is not forbidden).

At a B&M, this is cheating. One player to a hand is strictly enforced.

It's not really cheating--just kind of sad and lame.

you seriously think that would float with everyone? You knock out helmuth, but then hes basically still in the tourny playing? I somehow really cant see this being ok with the majority of people

I'm sure it wouldn't be okay with the majority of people. Especially the loony-toon conspiracy theorists that saturate the online poker world. But since you asked, "How would you feel..." I say, I'd feel OK.

And obviously, your example is much different than the OP's. Having 3 guys sitting and playing 1 table is much different than having 1 guy go around and play multiple entries in the same tournament. If I found out that Doyle, Johnny Chan, and Howard Lederer were all playing the same entry in a tournament - I would be much more likely to laugh in their face than be upset about their working together.
