Online poker room PartyPoker recently announced the addition of Kara Scott to their repertoire of pro players. Kara Scott has been a professional poker player and poker TV shows host for a long time and she had not signed a sponsorship deal with any other poker room yet. Kara will be part of PartyPoker’s pro team.

Kara Scott was born in Canada but she has lived in the United Kingdom since 1999. She is the girlfriend of professional poker player Brian Townsend and they currently live together in the UK.

At the tables, Kara has had some outstanding performances during the past few years, such as her 2nd place finish at the Irish Poker Open, and she became the second woman ever to cash twice at the WSOP Series in 2009. Her poker career earnings are about $550,000.

From now on, Kara will represent PartyPoker in poker tournaments around the world and she will have her own blog on the poker room’s website. You can also catch Kara on High Stakes Poker this year as she will be co-hosting the show.  Kara is also a regular on the ‘On the Rail’ podcast.
