Death and Poker

[MathBabe]

I suddenly woke up last night and wondered what is going to happen to Sea's money in her online poker accounts. She had warning, of course, and probably arranged her affairs before going into the hospital.

But what about you folks, especially the ones with big bankrolls? If you were tragically killed in a car accident tonight, what would happen with your online deposits? Would your significant other or parents be able to access that money?

I assume the family can send a copy of the death certificate to all the poker sites, and arrange some kind of cashout. But if you have a password on your machine, how do they even know what sites to contact?

Has anyone thought of this already and made it easy for their executor? Perhaps a list of sites, userids, passwords, and instructions on how to cash out, kept in a safe place?
