Big Poker Aces Sign Up for Full Tilt Network
Full Tilt faces
Full Tilt Poker relaunches with Gus Hansen, Viktor Blom and Tom Dwan in November 2012.
The once big, then notorious Full Tilt Poker brand, resurrected by Poker Stars, continues to dominate the news from the gambling press.
Poker players and gamblers in general are excited about the planned re-launch on November 6. This week, Full Tilt added another two poker pros to its already extensive player list: Tom ‘durrrr’ Dwan and Viktor ‘Isildur1’ Blom. Also, Gus Hansen aka ‘the Great Dane’ has signed a contract to act as an Ambassador media face for the renewed online poker site.
Dwan and Blom are considered by many to be among the best characters and most exciting players in today’s online poker. The duo was featured in countless televised poker battles as well as on the front pages of newspapers.
All in for high stakes games at Full Tilt
The duo specializes in high stakes games, betting millions and engaging in long roller coaster sessions involving a great deal of drama on both sides. Naturally, they both boast a huge and dedicated following among online card game addicts. Blom’s real identity was a mystery for months before he had signed with Poker Stars earlier in 2011.
The two highly aggressive, and to some even reckless players, are sure to buzz up the newly launched Full Tilt site.
Full Tilt released a statement to the press, saying: “The game of poker is always evolving. Through our continual innovations, Full Tilt Poker is proud to have been at the forefront of that evolution. In choosing our Pros we approached the three poker players whose unique and innovative styles have had the most impact on how modern poker is played.”
According to the new owner Poker Stars, the Full Tilt site will be open for real-money online games. Pre Black Friday usernames and accounts are supposed to work, however, some restrictions apply in several countries.
