Sorel "1mperium" Mizzi caught cheating yet again, banned from PokerStars for years

Some people just don't learn - according to a report from PokerFuse.com, Sorel “Imper1um” Mizzi has once again been caught cheating online and banned from PokerStars. This time he was playing on the site from the United States (where online poker is banned) by using another pleyer's account.

The story goes all the way back to February this year, when one of the members at Two Plus Two accused Mizzi of playing in September 2015 during World Championship of Online Poker (WCOOP) Main Event, making the final table, while being in his own condo in the United States.

But that's not all - Rory Brown, who was Mizzis friend, had also made the final table of the same tournament and decided to speak with Mizzi about strategy before the final table, giving him away all the informationn and reads regarding the rest of the players. On of those, playing under the nickname “bindernutnut,” was Mizzi. Rory Brown of course didn't know that.

In July, Mizzi admitted to the rules violation while on Joey Ingram’s podcast: “I was being sneaky and I got caught and it sucks. Do I feel terribly guilty about doing this?” Mizzi added. “To be honest, no not really.”

Now, it looks like Mizzi will have a plenty of time to think about his actions: “I can’t play on [PokerStars] for a couple years,” he said.

Mizzis cheating goes all the way back to 2007, when Mizzi bought Chris Vaughns account, while Vaughn was deep in a $1 million guaranteed tournament at FullTiltPoker. Mizzi won the tournament, but was eventually found out which resulted in a permanent ban and his winnings being taken away and given to other players.
Year later, in 2008, he was caught multi-accounting on PokerStars. Result? Suspension for three months. Few years passed and in 2011 Mizzi was accused of bottom dealing in a live, heads-up game of open-face Chinese poker.

bottom dealing? jesus lol

All this cheating = drama, and I love drama.

He's skilled at poker + cheats in various forms. Sounds like the base for a good poker movie.

lol this guy needs to be in the squeal of rounders

lol at bottom dealing
and tbh with poker market getting tighter and tighter, PS will become just about the only place where you can't change your nickname, there s tons of sites where you can now, and basically thats why he s been banned so many times, which is stupid tbh

i mean but when youre actually bottom dealing....That goes from someone trying to get around rules they dont agree with. To actual, legit dirt bag move.

If you can do it when the rest cant its cheating, I dont get why he has been allowed to play again, I hope this time they make it permanent and totally irrevocable including all live events organized and sponsored by Stars

nobody complains when guy laliberte multiaccounts tho

Guy and Sorel have a big skill difference, this is pretty bad cheating and hes obviously never learned a lesson, he still has tons of sites no big deal to him im sure.

id just leave game if he was there.

He'll just work out a deal and play on another friend's account. Can't ban people when they're behind screens.

this guy's a hardcore cheater. he's probably playing on stars again as I write this.

hes for sure playing on stars, its easy as hell to do so now, just need an id.

Bottom dealing ROFL

he's still doing things he shouldn't. the fact that he had to give back money he won says very much.
