It’s at times like Christmas that social media really shows its worth, with family and friends able to not only able to send their season’s greetings, but also able to share pictures and videos at the drop of a hat.
Many of the world’s best poker players are also big lovers of social media and they too wasted no time in sharing their Christmas experiences with everybody. Let’s have a look at some of them.
Take Team PokerStars Pro Daniel Negreanu for instance, he has had the best poker year of his career and is currently ranked as the number one tournament poker player in the world so you can imagine that Christmas was especially great for him this time around.
Merry Christmas from me and my son Mushu! He’s waiting on yummy leftovers like a good boy. http://t.co/P1q96VMoLV

Jake Cody was quick to get in on the act too, though we doubt his neighbours will be too impressed with the noise coming from the house.

Bertrand Grospellier is known as Mr PCA and will be probably looking forward to the New Year more than anyone with the latest PokerStars Caribbean Adventure kicking off. Judging by his tweets though it seems that he too had a great Christmas.

Phil Hellmuth spent Christmas Day with his family at the movies (great way to spend the day, besides eating and drinking, that is).
Merry Christmas everyone!! Wife, sons and I saw “Hunger Games 2″ yesterday, going to “Hobbit 2″ in 3D tonight. Wife gave me a fitbit!
