I would venture to ask the question of would the casino even care?
Speaking hypothetically.
Let's say you do have a team playing on the same account. The casino
is doing this promotion to encourage more coin-in. Whether they are
seeing this increase from one person or spread among several, they are
still accomplishing their goal. Even if the individuals in the group
isn't playing any more than they were doing previously, the fact that
their play is being combined is creating a coin-in amount that will
cause others to play more to compete. So again the casino sees a jump
in coin-in which was the whole purpose. They are paying out the same
amount in prizes whether it is to legitimate individuals or teams, so I
really think that a casino doesn't have much incentive to care about
whether multiple people are playing on the same account.
Of course this changes if people start to find out about it and their
is a public outlash in people feeling that the casino isn't doing all
they can to keep the contest "fair." Then I can see there being a
negative in allowing this to happen. But at least initially, I could
see a casino allowing it thinking that it wouldn't get out. Basically
they figure that any team wouldn't want to tell people what they are
doing for obvious reasons, and if the casino isn't telling, it
shouldn't be all that easy for an outsider to know what the team is
doing. So the casino is happy; the team is happy. Now in a situation
like this where people are starting to catch ear, the casino always has
plausible deniability. "We weren't aware it was happening, but now
that we know people are trying to cheat in this way we can assure you
that we will monitor for this." I just really don't think that a
casino would be motivated to really care if it was happening--at least
until it gets caught. After that, the public would hold them more
accountable to prevent this if it had been known to happen before.
Obviously, I'm not saying that this is what was going on, just
imaginative speculation on what could conceivably happen.
