Last Sunday, Dutch poker player ‘zeurrr’ won a seat from $2 satellite to the special edition of Pokerstars’ Sunday Million, and eventually turned the $2 investment to a half a million dollars.
Now, however, it seems that "zeurrr" is only 17 years old, and in the Terms & Conditions of Pokerstars it’s stated that ‘individuals under 18 years of age’ are not allowed to play and if false information is provided Pokerstars will not pay out any sums and can even proceed to prosecute the player.
According to mcpoker.com: "Pokerstars Holland Representative Simon Keijzer tells Dutch TV show Jimmy Jonker is registered as a 19-year old, while he is 17 years old at the moment. Keijzer declares that an under-aged shouldn’t have played the tournament and he will not be entitled to the prize money."
We will see how the story evolves, but at the moment it strongly seems, that "zeurrr" will learn the PokerStars rules the hard way.
