    Exclamation Calling on Aussie Millions Tournament Directors

    I see that Lee Nelson is multi-tabling. Confirm/deny that this exact situation happened earlier during this Aussie Millions and a player was not allowed to play the 2nd tournament because the same chips were used in each event and thus he could have taken chips from one table to another? Confirm whether Crown has a standard ruling in such situations or do you rule on a case-by-case basis?

    Event 16: $1,100 No Limit Hold'em | Day 2

    Multi-tabling

    Lee Nelson is currently playing $10,500 H.O.R.S.E as well as this event. He's sitting on a 34k stack in the H.O.R.S.E. and a 43,200 stack in this event.

    We hope to see him furiously running back and forth between the tables soon.

    We are ok for players to play simultaneous events provided those events are using different chip sets as was the case with the $1100 NLHE and the $10k HORSE

    Cheers for that, so standard ruling then. Would be a bit rough though if a player registered for a particular event, let's say their favourite event, but happened to luckbox to Day 2 of an event from the previous day and were thus not permitted to play their pet event. And this kind of thing is hard for players to know beforehand, that is, what events use the same chips and what don't.

    Not sure how to make everyone happy. Maybe you could look at 3 or 4 sets of tournament chips. Or indicate somewhere that players cannot play Day 2 of Event x and Day 1 of Event y (because of identical chip sets).

    Dalek,
    you're first post was rubbish, as verified by a TD,
    your next could border the realms of embarrasing,though not quite, maybe, yet.

    Excuse me chump?

    We have two separate and seemingly identical situations of live multi-tabling during the Aussie Millions where one was allowed and one was not. It is completely valid to ask what Crown's policy is on such matters.

    So GFY.

    They do (or should) chip counts during each break, and obviously they should balance to no. of buy ins/rebuys/add-ons.
    I'm reluctant to believe that they would expose themselves to such an obvious scam as inter-changing between tables, after numerous Aussie mils.
    Thinking on it though, some of the shit still happening at WSOP's, I maybe shouldn't be so bla-se

    Please explain to us in all ur wisdom, exactly how playing two different tournaments at the same time, with different chip sets, is a "scam"?

    Read thread again, from beginning to here,
    Then ask yourself why you're asking me this question.
    and why indeed this thread exists.

    This thread exists because Lee Nelson was multi tabling two seperate AM tournaments whilst another player was denied the same right...

    A highly relevant question was asked in response to the denial of this player and thus this thread exists...

    imo..... Norman... you sir, are a douche!
