MAP - MULTI ACCOUNT POLICY
Ongame Network allows players to register accounts with multiple Network Operators, but has the policy that an individual may only register for any single tournament from one of these accounts.
Any player who plays in a tournament from multiple player accounts will be in violation of this
policy and suffer the following consequences:
1. They will be disqualified from a tournament in-progress if the violation is detected in realtime.
2. All money in all their player accounts with Ongame Network operators will be confiscated,
and the accounts closed.
3. They will be permanently banned from playing on Ongame Network.
When these banned players are caught, their money will be confiscated and their account
closed.
At the Network’s discretion, tournament pay-outs (the distribution of tournament prize monies
to winners) can be held for up to 14 days if an investigation is required (though we will try to
conclude all investigations within 72 hours). Investigations are predicated on automatic
processes and manual checks conducted by separate support and security teams both during
and after tournaments.
Where an investigation determines there is or has been a serious problem, all accounts
suspected of being involved may be frozen for the duration of the investigation. This means
that players will not be able to log-in or play, and they will not be able to withdraw or transfer
funds. We recognize that this will be an inconvenience and we regret that this may affect
innocent players.
Where an investigation requires that tournament pay-outs be held pending distribution to
winners, we will endeavour to communicate this to all players involved shortly after the
tournament concludes.
Ongame Network has the policy of not sharing the results of its investigations. However, where appropriate, both the results and actions being taken will be made available to players through our Operators’ websites. If prizes need to be redistributed, this information will be provided directly to players.
Ongame Network recognizes that it is critically important to provide safe gaming for all our
players, and to ensure that our card room is fair. We go to great lengths to eliminate all unfair
advantages and are removing the potential advantage provided by using multiple accounts to
register for a tournament. Note that we are advised by David Sklansky in respect to preventing various forms of collusion, and appreciate his expertise.
We also want to be clear that cheating of any kind will absolutely not be tolerated.
