NBC Heads Up: It didn’t last quite...

The NBC Heads Up tournament was a pretty amazing experience. Not to give anything away (although the results have been posted pretty much everywhere online already), but it didn’t last quite as long as I would have liked it to! It was a real honour to be invited to be part of the 64 poker players taking part. The night before the tournament started we had a big red carpet and a...

Kara Scott at NBC Heads Up Championships...

Today is the first round of the NBC Heads Up Championships at Caesars in Las Vegas. I flew in last night and got settled into my hotel, said a quick hello to the people on set and then it was time for the ‘Draw Party’ at Pure. I’m a very small fish in this pond of sharks This, unfortunately, was proceeded by yet another red carpet. I think it was a bit easier this time...

Kara Scott: WPT Invitational Final Table...

It was a good day at the WPT Invitational Final Table and I’m just crawling into bed for a sleep before heading off in the morning to Las Vegas. There were some interesting personalities at the final table. I always love seeing Thor Hansen because he’s really one of the true gentlemen of the game. I first interviewed him some time ago in Europe and ever since then...

Kara Scott: High Stakes Poker Action and...

Kara Scott on High Stakes Poker TV show where she is the co-host and the NBC HU where she will play. It’s been great to have some time to kick back and relax after the madness of the last few weeks. I needed the time to catch up on stuff at home, remind my loved ones what I look like AND get back to playing online and preparing for the NBC HU Championships which are coming up...

Kara Scott: Red Carpet of Doom...

After one day at home doing absolutely, blissfully nothing, I headed to Los Angeles yesterday afternoon for the WPT Invitational. I was going there to do hostessing work for the TV side of things – interviewing players when they bust etc – but I also had to do something that I’ve always dreaded: walk the red carpet. The invitational is a celebrity event so there is a...

Kara Scott: Strapping on a pair of heels...

The Premier League is officially finished for Season 4. It was 10 days of straight poker and as much fun as it was, it’ll also be great to get home for a little while. I like the fact that for the most part, we had the same 17 (Premier League and Party Pros) players around all the time. They’re all such different characters that it provided for a LOT of entertainment through...

Kara Scott: A late night and tired eyes...

Tomorrow will be one hell of a long day while we play out the Heads Up stage and then the Final Table of the Premier League here in Las Vegas. Fantastic dinner at the Oyster Bar My fellow Party Pro Ian Frazer won his heat yesterday of course and we all had to celebrate!  That meant that instead of getting an early night like I have been all week, I went out for a fantastic dinner at...

Kara Scott: Happy Valentine’s Day...

Happy Valentines Day everyone! We’re all still at the M Resort in Las Vegas so a few of us on the TV crew decided to get a drink in the wine bar last night together, for Valentine’s Day. Somehow, we managed to wander into a single’s mixer and it was…. crazy! There was a lot of wine being drunk so people had…er… lost their inhibitions by the time we...

Kara Scott: I’ve gotten really fon...

It’s been an exciting couple of days  at the Premier League. The Party Pro heat was so hard to watch as I’ve gotten really fond of them all, so as they fell one by one it was just so conflicting! I’m really glad for Ian Frazer though as I know how much he wanted to win his way into the tournament. It really meant a lot to him. Ian played in the first of the League...

Kara Scott: My America’s Next Top Mode...

Its been a really interesting few days here at the M Resort in Las Vegas. We’re here to film the Premier League and yesterday we finished up with the Qualifier’s heats. This is the first year that the Premier League has saved one place for an online qualifier and it’ll be interesting to see how Giovanni Safina copes with facing the pro line up! Earlier in the week we had a photo...
