      I'd be extremely careful about doing that.
      But that again is a question best asked of the book you are looking at rather than asking the Forum.
      Not all books would have the same rules on that.
      My daughter's partner who lives with us opened an account at a book where I have an account and there's been no issue about it.

        I would definitely avoid it if at all possible...especially since it's your wife.

                Just need to ask them first. My brother and I were able to do it when we lived together.

                  I would strongly recommend against doing this. A lot of books come up with some ingenious and outrageous reasons to suspend accounts; slow pay clients; void wagers, etc. So something as this simple reason to cause you grief would be seized upon in a heartbeat.....

                    most books state 1 per household to avoid every family members taking multiple sign up bonus offers.

                      I dont see why this would be a problem unless you are using the two accounts to get higher limits or abuse bonuses....

                      Its not like poker where there is a huge edge of having 2 on the same ip.. I'm pretty sure they wont care if you are betting a few hundred and she is making 50 dollar bets.

                      But as is always the case, check with the book first.

                          I suspect the OP has his eye on multiple bonuses

                              My friend and his brother each have Bet JM accounts and they live in the same house. They had to speak with them first though. Why not just let your wife or your girl lay her action through your account?? whats the difference

                                If I did this with my girlfriend that would be trouble just waiting to happen.

                                  Because this would make it complicated for the OP to abuse bonus offers and exceed max betting limits.

                                      Just ask and see if it's Ok. I know Bookmaker let me and my brother do it. Just don't do it unless you get the OK with the book.

                                        It would be helpful with a video proving both of you are living in the same house , but still, even it is approved, it is asking for trouble unnecessarily if one of you wins a nice amount.

                                            If you're not going after the bonuses or making the same bets in both accounts, then it shouldn't be a problem. But read the bookmaker's rules first, since they should have something on this issue.

                                                It's his wife. He already has videos of them...

                                                Wait. What?
