PokerScout's Star Finder has a list of all sponsored players for FullTiltPoker, PokerStars and smaller rooms. You can see who is online right now and what tables they're playing.

You should play on Full Tilt.com. It has a number of famous stars such as Howard Lederer, Phil Ivey, John Juanda, Eric Seidel and Patrick Antonious.

Nuts is right. Full Tilt have the most well known pros on their books. Not sure if you'll ever get to play them without buying into a $20k game though!

Lots of so called pros are playing smaller limits.

For example Chris Moneymaker is currently playing $0.50/$1 PLO at Stars.

This shouldn't really matter as most pros that people would want to play against don't really seem to honor their agreement to be found at small enough stakes that average players could enjoy. Sure, Full Tilt advertises as such, but the only way to play against known players would be to play nose bleed stakes or join an MTT and cross your fingers that one of them will draw your table.

As for their red pros, most of the ones sitting at games $1/2-2/4 are unknown to you and play laughably tight for the most part. Even still, these jokers wouldn't even be able to show a profit if they weren't getting 100% rakeback. Not to sound like a hater, but you can just look them up on pokertableratings.com and see what I mean.
