Every time that i have played on full tilt, I never see any of the big name pros playing. Most of the people I see are foreigners. Have any of you seen Ivey, Ferguson, Hanson or others play?

I see them all the time! Some times, you'll find pros in the higher stakes Omaha games. Just click the higher stakes checkbox and browse through all of the different games. If a pro is sitting at a table, the table will be highlighted red. I've seen Patrik Antonius, Phil Ivey and David Benyamine all playing at the same high stakes table before. You can also find pros in the play money games too!

I've seen Ivey and Antonius ... but I have never seen Furgeson. Some of the other names are on all the time, and iamays is right a lot play high stakes PLO.

I watched Phil Ivey,Dan Negraneau play on several occasion,usually in big money tho.I have played with a few pros before on fulltilt,in a forum sponsored freeroll.I made it farther than the pros did on a few occasions.
So,they do play there,just keep watching and looking around..some play pretty large buyin tourneys too,so you do have a chance to play with em.The poker site prolly pays their buyin tho..lol...who knows.
The pros on fultilt have their name in Red...so look for that.negraneau..uses the alias kidpoker..i think..or similiar to that..of course he prolly has several aliases.

There are several pro's that are on regularly. usually on PLO and Omaha Hi/Lo but also on HORSE.

Some of the big one's put in rare showups, like Ivey/Chris 'Jesus' but plays like Matusow, Lingren, Hansen, Antonius, Benyamine and more big names are on regularly.

Lots of pros on there. Back when Ferguson was doing his starting from zero thing, he was often in freerolls and other low limit tournies.

I don't go looking for them all that often, but some are definitely online more than others. The above is correct, you'll often find Gus and Degenyamine in the high-stakes PLO ring games and I'm pretty sure Matusow plays a lot of HORSE.

EDIT:

OK, so I'm looking at the lobby now and the following are logged on:

Degenyamine is sitting alone on a bunch of high-stakes PLO tables and a $2K/$4K HORSE table
Berry Johnston is playing $15/$30 LHE and $15/$30 LO8
Lee Watkinson is two-tabling $5/$10 NLHE
Maciek Gracz is three-tabling $100 6-max
Eli Elezra is playing $300/$600 and $500/$1000 PLO8
John D'Agostino, Allen Cunningham and Robert Mizrachi are all playing $300/$600 PLO8
Stuart Paterson is playing HU $50/$100 PLO8
Bill Gazes, David Chiu, Steve Z and Richard Ashby are all playing $25/$50 6-max PLO
Rino Mathis, whoever that is, is six-tabling $5/$10 6-max PLO.
Jordan Morgan is two-tabling the same, as well as playing a bunch more lower stakes PLO tables
Eddy Scharf is doing the same
David Bradley is playing $3/$6 stud and $3/$6 HORSE
Nobody famous is playing razz
Cyndy Violete is playing $30/$60 HORSE

So point partially proven I guess, not a lot of the really big names are on right now. It's about 9:30pm, server time.

Doesn't Full Tilt have a find a pro search feature like pokerstars does? That would make it easier to find them.

It's got the "Find a Player" feature, just punch in their screen name and they'll come up

As said the tables that have the Full Tilt pros are bolded with red.. A VERY GOOD WAY to search the teables that have pros playing is "sort by waiting" .. usualy the tables that hava them are with a huge list of people waiting for a seat...

=)
It in play money usualy.. I don't know if a want to play against a big pro in hight stakes tables.. LOL . :)

If I'm not mistaken and I believe I'm not, Negraneau is prohibited from playing on any site other than PokerStars. This is info straight from a PokerStars pro who cannot play elsewhere online.

I watched Phil Ivey,Dan Negraneau play on several occasion,usually in big money tho.I have played with a few pros before on fulltilt,in a forum sponsored freeroll.I made it farther than the pros did on a few occasions.
So,they do play there,just keep watching and looking around..some play pretty large buyin tourneys too,so you do have a chance to play with em.The poker site prolly pays their buyin tho..lol...who knows.
