How do you search for a player on Full Tilt Poker?
Full Tilt Poker allows you to search for a player, and see where they are currently seated. This is a great feature if you are looking for a fish that you hit for $1k the previous night, or if you just want to see if any of your friends are playing. Not too many poker rooms actually have this feature – Cake Poker are one that don’t – although really to find fish there you just have to sit down at a table and you’ll be surrounded by them! For more information on Cake Poker, read our Cake Poker Review.
