I doubt they were dumb enough to play from the same IP address. I'm assuming they used proxies from the area they registered in to connect to the sites. Even so, how in the world did they cash out? Fake ID's? Maybe they used friend's addresses that were in on it for a cut of the profits.
If the one was 16, how in the world did he deposit? I'm sure you can get a checking account if you're under 18, but cannot legally get a credit card. If that's the case, I would assume the credit card company would be contacting the poker room(s) for their money back. If it was his parents card, same solution.
oops, I forgot about the prepaid credit cards. If he (and others) abuse it like this, we can kiss this method of depositing goodbye in the near future.
