A DUBLIN-based subsidiary of the world’s second largest online poker room, Full Tilt Poker, yesterday confirmed the creation of a further 100 jobs.

The recruitment drive will bring to 800 the numbers employed at Pocket King Ltd’s operations at the Cherrywood Science and Technology Park. Pocket Kings acts as a service provider to Full Tilt Poker and only established in Dublin in 2006.

A company spokeswoman said the numbers employed at the company have almost doubled from the 390 employed at the end of April 2009.
