Default Friend using my computer

Hi guys

My friend is going to be staying at my place for a few weeks between moving house and he plays on the same poker site as me (Full Tilt).

We wont have his computer set up so obviously wont be playing online at the same time, but is there any risk of FTP getting pissed about another account logging in on my computer and detecting the same IP address or something? I'm not very techy minded lol, dunno how that stuff works.

Just wanna make sure I'm not gonna risk getting banned or getting into trouble for letting him play on my computer while he is here.

Cheers

Reech

Doubt it, my dad and I play FTP on the same PC.

I got a small wireless network at home. I have had as many 4 people playing FTP and PS at the same time. So I don't believe you have anything to worry about.

The catch is, per FTP customer service, multiple computers from the same IP address will not be allowed to sit at the same Ring game tables or to register for any tournaments/S&G's with less than 45 people.

Anything above 45 people is open to multiple computers from one IP address.

Hope this helps.

You're fine as long as people with the same IP address don't end up on the same table.

FTP don't allow that - I tried to play some NL10 with my dad and it wouldn't let me sit at the same table.

QFT

Our office shares two internet lines and we definitely have a few people logged in at the same time (never playing during working hours...of course).

It's never a problem, but I assume FTP wouldn't like it if you tried to sit at the same table.
