The popular online poker site, Fulltiltpoker.com, recently announced their new 2007 Fantasy Poker League.

Playing is simple. Participants each select a team of fifteen professional players to represent them. These fifteen players are broken into five players on the “A” level, five on the “B” level, and five on the “C” level.

For every dollar in tournament winnings that a player on the “C” level amasses, the fantasy poker player receives one point. For every dollar that a “B” level player wins, the fantasy player receives two points. Each dollar of winnings an “A” level player earns results in three points for the fantasy player.

This is great news for the world of poker. Since there are a lot of poker players who play online, adopting fantasy poker, an equally successful online phenomenon, should be a fun ride. (Credit source to Rotonation.)
