Sometimes I look up players sitting at my cash game tables to see if they are multi-tablers or not. Some of the names just come back as non-existant.

Just wondering if they block their name somehow or if anyone has an explanation.

There is a setting in pokerstars options to "Hide from Player Search" and I know quite a few players use it.

some people don't want to give extra information like 10 tabling at once.

One other possible explanation. First off, if you have some kind of tool, like sharkscope, see if they even exist. If the name comes up, they are hiding, as mentioned. If it does not come up, look at the name VERY carefully. I was doing a search ofr someone in a CC FT tourney. The name was FLlCK_YOLl (cute, huh? :p ). I thought the 'U' was capital 'L' and capital 'I'. The 'I' was actually a small 'L' or...'l'
