Within the list are some of the most popular FullTiltPoker.com players in the industry but followers should be aware that the site could well be open to the same problem that previous social networking sites suffered, accounts been created for the person and someone will be writing about the person rather than the player writing about it themselves.
Following other ‘real’ professional players accounts can give you an interesting insight into their lives and the things that they get up to on a daily basis.
If you see a player in the list above that you are interested in following and search for the name that features in the brackets next to their name then select the follow option.
Its amazing to see just how much time the players spend with each other and how they document their tournaments on a regular basis.
