Jonathan “FieryJustice” Little is one of the first wave of Internet players who achieved success and fame in live tournament play, and carried it back to become one of the Full Tilt Pros. Part of his “red” deal is 100% rakeback, which for someone like Little, who started as a SNG grinder, is golden.

On National Sportsmanship Day, I find it deliciously ironic that Little was let go today by FTP for violating its terms of service. The 100% SNG rakeback was just WAY too tempting…he had people playing his “red” account around the clock. He was seen playing 24 hours a day, over 150 SNGs a day. Several of his massive sessions were at the same time he was playing the NBC Heads Up Championship.

Oops.

I don’t know what else was in Little’s deal…but I’d guess (based on what other FTP Pros have gotten) that a backing arrangement for live play was part of it. Maybe Little, with $2 million in live cashes since the start of 2007, doesn’t care. It’s still just phenomenally dumb.

How many more notices not to fuck around do people need? Why are so many smart people so goddamn stupid?!
