Remove Static IP blocking

Hi, I have encountered this with my roommates as we cannot play in the same table because we have a static IP address preventing us to play together even if we all have our own PS4. It would be nice if that was removed since 99% of the games today doesn't prevent static IP address players to play together.

Unfortunately, due to the nature of how poker is played we cannot allow users from the same IP to play at the same table. The risk of collusion is simply too great. You are welcome to play any other games together. Thanks!

Just wondering, do you also stop players being in an PS4 Party while playing poker? I'm not and would not encourage collusion, just thought I'd ask.

No we do not stop players from forming a PS4 Party. Nor can we stop them from using Skype or text message or getting on the phone. But we have the ability to stop two people, or for that matter one person playing two machines - from playing at the same table in the same household.

We believe most to be honest, but will continue to monitor poker play. We wanted a system where people could walk up and play at the table of their choosing, rather than sitting in a lobby system.

You're jus contradicting yourself, you don't want peoples to play in the same table if they got the same IP address but you want them to play at the table of their choosing. Plus cheating can be done with different IP address too, a person could just call someone not living in the same house to do it.  Yeah, clearly, I'll choose to play some other game cause there at least I can play against my friends and roommates. So feel free to delete my account here since I'll never use it again, good bye.
