Some of you will have heard the news but the lovely Kara Scott is graduating from Sky Poker Feltham Polytechnic and using her Diploma in Hold 'Em Skills to take up an important position at Poker Stars (EPT) Trading Limited.
Kara was one of the first members of the Sky Poker presentation team and it breaks my heart to see her leave. I had plans to ask her to marry me but we never got beyond small talk about what colour her embroidered shirts should be. I know Tikay proposed to her several times and is currently to be seen with a tear in his eye as he contemplates a future Scott-free.
Kara will be with us for two more nights on the Sky Poker Open (known in some circles as The Fish Supper - how very dare they). You can see her on the 21st and 31st July. After that, she's a full-time Poker Stars girl, presenting and playing in tournaments across Europe.
She will be very much missed and we send her our love and congratulations on doing so well in the WSOP.
It's going to be really hard to replace you Kara...no matter how good Dave Compton looks in a dress.
Love,
Vic

Say it ain't so, Vic.
I'm distraught. Still, I thank you for the fore-warning. At least it means that I can record her last two shows for posterity.

Congrats to Kara on her continued success.
I won't miss her.
I'll just carry on stalking her like I always have.
WP that lady. She might only have been the 3rd highest lady finisher, but she proved she's got 100% more class than that Tiffany Michelle bint.
I honestly think she will become the world's no. 1 female player.

and I will sorely miss Sky Poker!!! I've just arrived home and am trying to stave off sleep until the sun goes down in an attempt to bypass the inevitable jet lag. Surfing through the forums, I found this and just wanted to say a massive Thank You to all at Blonde for your support through the past couple of years through my various poker incarnations (mostly fishy  And an even bigger Thank You to Sky Poker. I've absolutely loved working there and have made good friends that I will miss so so much. Very few people are lucky enough to be able to see "going to work" as "going to meet friends" and I'll always be hugely grateful to Sky for giving me that and so much more. The people who work there and run the joint are brilliant and I will miss all of you. |
