An Idea, has anyone tried this or whatcha think

Sorta long post warning...

Okay so last night I got to thinking about live play v. online and replayed my times at the tables and I remembered these two old pros at the LHE tables I used to play against. They pooled their money and kept two stacks in continual play. They were permitted to do this by the Horseshoe bosses as long as the dealers informed the table that the stacks they were on would be played by multiple players (2) and would not leave (I also think they were prop players for the Shoe as well). They kept a 10/20 stack going and a 4/8 stack going (lowest stake at the Shoe). They would take turns as their exhaustion rates would increase (4/8 was much less stressful and crazy loose).

Now here's where I'm going with this...translating this to online poker. My girlfriend is pretty competitive TAG player and I trust her fully. Has anyone tried to put their tables up on a big screen (start with like 4 then move to 8, etc...) then divide the screen in half with one person taking the tables on the right and vice versa with one person executing orders with their trusted partner?

I thought this would be an interesting approach and if anyone has attempted.

I have no idea what you are talking about

It's against poker sites TOS. Only YOU and only YOU are allowed to play on your account(with some very limited alowances). Second-one person to a hand-live or online. Yes, I doubt that everybody follows these rules but they are the rules.

lol so both sit right next to each other? i mean it could work but why not just take turns one after another lol.

They rotated, one on the 4/8 table and one on the other. Then would switch.

Prop players keep the action going and game alive, of course they devoured all the easy money tourists and what not that sat at the lower stake table.

I still have no idea what OP it talking about.

Why not just put 12 tables up and play them yourself?

It is against site rules

PIC to save thread :

^^^ ive wanted to find a poster with this exact same shot for years. never have.....

Why don't you just get her an account and use two different computers, and two different screens?

How bout you take the 1st and 3rd betting rounds and she can bet the even rounds

Really. I agree with Stu, what is the goal

goldog

I let my wife play for me once cause I had to poop I came back probably like 3 min later and I was knocked out of the tournament I was in. Now I own a lap top so I can just take it with me

What i think OP is trying to say is that 2 players playing 2 different limits but alternating between the 2.
So that when the player gets tired of playing the higher limit and wants to loosen up a bit without losing too much of the BR then they would switch.
If this is the case then I would suggest that maybe OP should learn to switch playing styles without having a pinch hitter come play for him.

theyn have jack and jill tournaments, where a man and woman take turns playin the same stack. These are fun.

Thanks for the replies

1. Didn't realize it would be against TOS and what not....and yes, I'm and ethical player so even though it is possible, against the rules, fair enough.

2. The whole point is to max out BR play and try to keep BR in perpetual play with higher level of awareness/less fatigue and include her in the game to give me more time to play. In relationships there is a maintenance requirement. Basically when it comes to grinding poker, time is the critical element and is finite...number of hands is infinite (if time was not finite).

3. Just trying to find way to get GF some action without costing too much, this way I could override decisions (deal with consequences off table sure, but used to that by now).

So lastly, the best decision is to just keep grinding my BR alone and set her up on another site with a small portion and tell her to have at it and just coach, we've got duel laptops anyways.

yeh get her an account andjustemail support so they know its 2 different users on the same network/computer. All theyw will do is askfor you guys to prob faxover 2 different identifications

Point: more volume than you'd achieve on your own
Problem: nobody named Binion runs an online poker room so it ain't gonna happen

what he said ^
Two accounts on same site from same home is no problem... as long you email support & let them know.
The only restrictions they'll put on your accounts (more than one puter at same IP address) is that you won't be able to play on the same table (obviously) or the same single table sng (you can actually join the same 45plyr. sng & I think hte 27's on some sites too).

you don't need to email support and let them know you just don't play on the same cash tables or tournaments both me and my brother live in the same house and play professionally. When one of us is short doesn't happen often but occasionally the norm is for one of us to transfer from our account to there's and be given cash in return. Both full tilt and pokerstars are aware me and my brother live in the same house and have never had any problems with us doing this.

thanks for the info my wife wants an account i didnt think its allowed??
the info here has been helpfull ty all
