Considerations in opening a 2nd acct (for my \"wife\") at a Party skin
 

Today, my wife opened a new acct at Empire (where I have long enjoyed playing w/ no 3rd party aggreements concerning my...overhead). My wife, however, does have an agreement with a 3rd party that makes her potential earnings about 25% greater than mine (coincidentally, we are equally skilled players). Therefore, it is very important not to upset the Empire through our close relationship. She would prefer not to open new checking and neteller accts to remove her winnings. So, Is there any problem with perpetually transferring money from her acct to my acct (for which there is a neteller exit)? Can anybody else with a "wife" or close "friend" comment on my strategy and point out any problems they anticipate? Thank you, from both of us.

You'd strongly be advised to help your wife overcome her trepiditation about opening a new NT and chequing account.

Damn, can you give more detail?

Agreed. Party pretty much axed all "overhead reduction methods" and would like to do the same on the skins. The skins have some leverage to prevent this, at the moment. However, Party has a fairly big stick and I would not be surprised if, when they start swinging said stick, the skins may make "concessions" of all the players who are blatantly abusing the ban on "overhead reduction".

Thus, the fewer red flags the better.

Set up one of those ING accounts. Somebody here may give you a referral ($25 deposit bonus I think). Just post in one of the numerous threads on ING that you need a referral and someone will PM you. If they haven't already.

What is "ING"?

One other thing: Your long-term expectation might be better if your "wife" was a real person and has no trouble finding her ID card and would not be too shy to answer the phone than if she was a virtual person or an inflatable doll or things like that.

Constantly transferring to and cashing out thru another account that plays off your own IP address would be a surefire of getting your accounts locked IMO.

You need to be cashing out legitimately thru the account you're playing on. An epassporte card in your own name would be ok as this method is anonymous, paypro would only know the username of the epassport account. Or, if you haven't already got a eurobet account in your name you could probably get an even better rate of overhead reduction there :P

My wife has an account with party. She funds it through her own account. She would be happy to talk to Party on the phone. There is nothing wrong with 2 people having an account at the same address, but it could look suspicous if you suddenly stop playing at one account and your wife suddenly starts playing 20k hands a month.

Ever considered eurobet?

Re: Considerations in opening a 2nd acct (for my \"wife\") at a Party sk
 

I got a call the other day from multipoker asking if I also had an account at party, empire, eurobet, and pokernow. They also asked what my relationship to (wife's name) was. I told them all the accounts were mine, but my wife has her own account that she likes to play occassionally at party poker. They were cool with that. She has her own NT account and would be willing to talk to them if they asked. I occassionally will play on her account (during a bonus) but otherwise it's legit.

make sure your wife is available to talk on the phone at the numberyou give, b/c Party may call.

Re: Considerations in opening a 2nd acct (for my \"wife\") at a Party sk
 

I have this set up at Empire too. Separate NT, Bank Account, the works. It won't work any other way. If you really want to use the same NT, try an overhead reduction account at Eurobet. My wife and I also have accounts there sharing NT.

Re: Considerations in opening a 2nd acct (for my \"wife\") at a Party skin
 

Your wife has to be a real person as they will at some point want to talk to her to ensure she is real, esecially if your using the same computer. Just because you transfer your money in and can play and see your "overlay" being tracked doesn't mean your in the clear, second you try to cash out, *bam* locked account.

It's beneficial to keep a log somewhere with all the account details and a history of any transfers you make so your wife can at least hold up a conversation if they call her when your not home.

Sure. Your strategy sucks, it's breaking the terms and conditions, will cause them to end stuff like bonuses doe to asses like you, and I just notifed Empire so they'll cancel both accounts.

BOOM!

Dude, just set up an account at Eurobet, then you don't have to invent a wife for yourself.

before you make assumptions about people, my "wife" has an account and I am certainly not a gnomer. I think he was interested in the "other" benifit.

Re: Considerations in opening a 2nd acct (for my \"wife\") at a Party skin
 

My wife has an account at a skin and we share the same Neteller account. We play on the same computer. We've never had any problem.

If you are simply creating another account for yourself, the only issue is winning a satellite to a live event. Your wife will have to play it. So start teaching her poker...

Re: Considerations in opening a 2nd acct (for my \"wife\") at a Party sk
 

I havent read the replies, so maybe this gets covered.

I have done this in the past. Empire never said anything. Neteller however was a GIANT pain in the ass. Anytime I transfered funds from my "girlfriends" account to mine. BAM! accounts closed, and then I had to actually have this chick call and give her info and [censored]. They never seemed to grasp the idea that she was my girlfriend and we "lived together". pain in the ass. So make sure you "wife" is really a real person that can talk on th ephone and [censored]. Also, if you really do have a wife, get her to open a new checking account instead of transfering between you two, why pay netellers juice? Or maybe its possible to have 2 diff neteller accounts go to the same bank account, dunno about that.

Did the same thing at UB and they won't let you transfer money out of your account into your neteller account if you transferred funds from your "wife's" account. They made me fax picture id of both of us (which was eventually no problem for my actual wife after a long explanation) in order for her to be able to transfer funds from her account into my netteller.

good luck
