Top 10 Biggest Social Media Players in Poker
Created By: Matthew Showell Posted in: The Poker Reporter Blog, PokerListed
According to the website Klout.com, social media in the poker world is led by players like Daniel Negreanu, Phil Hellmuth and Phil Ivey.
Klout gathers information from all social media sites and aggregates it into a score, measuring the number of people you reach, how effectively you influence them, and how significant a presence you are within your network.
Some of the names on this list seem obvious, cough Daniel Negreanu, but others prove that sometimes it doesn't take exhaustive social media effort to have one of the biggest voices in poker.
It also proves having 1 million Twitter followers won't get you the number one spot.
Keep reading to see whose social media voice is the loudest in poker. And while you're at it, follow us on Facebook and Twitter!
***Update: Due to popular demand we've compiled a new, much more reality-based ranking and we did it with the help of one Kevin Mathers.
