Is this going to get me into trouble ???

depends on the book, B rated or higher books you have no trouble in, most they would do is give you a warning to stop such tactics

are you making the same wagers on your own account?

are the wagers close to max bet?

I would contact the book ahead of time. Ask if this is ok.

Why should they care?

they will only care if you win. as long as you are losing you can do whatever you want pretending to be whomever you want and you'll have no problems.

Good post. Those are the two key factors.

That might be considered double hitting... so that might get you some troubles with the book... Still you should ask the book if they allow that... I do know that you using your friend's account is not very wise... since most books only allow one owner per account... so different IPs coming from the same account, or several different devices might be considered as fraud... but you should always ask them first

We share a lot of insight together so the plays are very similar...

I was just reading something online and it worried me.

Yes, there is a chance of your account being locked. They key here for them to determine that would be the IPs being registered plus the wagers that you are making.

You might want to consider informing your book that you are using a shared IP.

I tell you one thing. Dont have accounts with both CRIS and Bookmaker. place 2 same bets in a row to high your limits. Then they cut your limit to minimum.
