Full Tilt Poker made the somewhat surprising announcement today that they were firing one of their sponsored pros. The player in question: Jonathan ‘Fiery Justice’ Little, who was signed by the site only a few months ago.
According to a statement released by Full Tilt, the firing was a result of a determination that Little had let other people play under his account, violating the standard terms of the Full Tilt Pro agreement. Excerpt from the statement:
Despite having a great year on the WPT, Jonathan Little is no longer affiliated with Full Tilt Poker. He violated the terms and conditions of Full Tilt Poker by allowing other players to play his account. While we encourage our pros to play as much as they can, we do not allow them to share their account with any other players.
A poster on Pocket Fives noted that Little is not the only Full Tilt pro who has allegedly shared their account. Excerpt:
but i sepcifically remember clonie gowen playing in a live event and also in the Sunday major on ftp simultaneously
seems to me like a double std is being applied
shouldnt clonie be also fired, as this is her 2nd strike, first being that she blatantly copied jsups article and passed it along as her own
Whole thread here. 2+2 thread on the matter here.
Little has yet to comment on the matter. His blog is located here, and it seems likely he’ll address the matter at least in passing within the next few days.
