Winamax Blocks Ambassador Ivan Deyra for Multi-Accounting

Winamax, a prominent European poker room, has terminated its contract with ambassador Ivan Deyra due to multi-accounting. Deyra, a French-British poker player and WSOP bracelet winner, has been an ambassador for Winamax for several years. The poker room is primarily focused on French players.

Deyra's multi-accounting activities were discovered when other players noticed unusual behavior. Deyra's official account, ValueMerguez, was inactive during the Winamax Series. Meanwhile, his father's account, MATIVANAO, which previously only played low-stakes games, suddenly became active and won over 83,300€ in a super high roller tournament.

After players provided evidence, Winamax's security service analyzed both accounts and blocked them. Deyra admitted to multi-accounting, stating that many players on Winamax know his nickname and collect statistics on it. Despite his explanation, Deyra lost his contract with Winamax and his reputation.
