Pro breaks online casino rules

Posted by admin

Sorel Mizzi seems not to learn his lessons, even if the first lesson was an embarrassing and public incident (his cheating) for which he was called out in front of the online poker gambling industry. This situation boils down to the following thing: multi-accounting at the online poker sites isn’t only a breach in the rules, but it is just unethical. The scandal in which Mizzi was involved happened a year ago at the well-known Full Tilt poker site. Mizzi is among the top online poker gambling pros in the world and the player was caught multi-accounting when taking part in a main tournament, also he allowed his friend to gamble under his name at the very end of the tournament.

The situation was just out embarrassing for the online poker player, but a year later, the situation repeated. Mizzi this time made an attempt to pull a fast one on Poker Stars that is not wise. Poker Stars is the biggest online poker site all over the world and there was certainly little opportunity that Mizzi might get away with the unlawful multi-accounting. This time Poker Stars banned Mizzi from the site for half a year. After that he appealed half a year ban the management of the company reduced his punishment to 3 months.

Though, this situation has made all the online casino gambling community scratch their heads and wonder what he was thinking about? Mizzi himself is a public figure in the online poker industry and this incident is, once again, rather embarrassing. And whereas Mizzi is not surely the only gambler to have been caught out in the same thing (many players have been accused just of multi-accounting during the last decade), Mizzi is a very public figure and ought to know better by this day.
