Apparently Kara Scott is the New HSP Hostess - Poker News

I found her coverage of the PCA quite entertaining, and her top 300 finishes in back to back main events shows she has some poker knowledge to contribute, here is a link to the story....

I thought she dated Brian Townsend, not Brian Hastings. Could be wrong though.

It may have alot to do with her association with Pokerstars who is sponsoring next seasons HSP series.

She is the only "eye candy" that works here. Good choice.

I'm not sure how well Gabe in the booth by himself will work out, though.

Is it definite that he will be in the booth by himself?

Why couldnt Kara do commentary along with Gabe?

Mediocre Poker Radio interview with AJ Benza

In response to the above, one of Daniel's posts at his forum mentioned it was Gabe going solo in the booth.

she is nice enough but it is frustrating 2 watch hsp devolve liek this, at least have her work with gabe as a commentator instead of using her as a 'hostess'

Sounds like they are using the Poker after Dark format. One announcer with a hostess to introduce players and interview players after key hands.

I would prefer her in the booth as a commentator as well.....

a quote from benza in the article: "Does GSN realize they have apparently copied ‘Poker After Dark,’ the show that feels like a marriage between a Xanax and a Valium?”

lollerskates, and agreed. pad sucks, whytf is hsp copying pad's format when its own worked fine and was more entertaining?

reminds me of what charles oakley once said: "if it ain't broke, don't break it."
