The Full Tilt Poker family continues to grow by leaps and bounds, consistently adding to the extraordinary roster of professional poker players that represent the online poker site. Most recently, online phenomenon Soren Kongsgaard has been signed on as an official Full Tilt Pro.

He is a 21-year old Danish poker pro, and the online poker world sure knows who he is. According to internet poker ranking sites, Kongsgaard has made over $800,000 in online tournament earnings, with more than half of that at Full Tilt Poker alone. And as he has parlayed his success into live tournaments, he has racked up over $1.5 million in winnings there, with the biggest takes coming in March of 2007 with a third place finish at the European Grand Finale in Monte Carlo and September of 2007 when he won the main no-limit hold’em event of the Danish Championships.
