Tyron Krost New Party Poker Pro

Party Poker has signed on a new pro and while his name might not be dinner table conversation, the site believes it might soon be.

When Tyron Krost took the Aussie Millions Main Event in January, many people were first introduced to the pro player from Australia who pocketed more than $1.7 million from the win. Thursday, Party Poker (www.partypoker.com) announced that he’s been added to Team PartyPoker, the pro team that represents Party Poker throughout the world.

Team PartyPoker team member Tony G commented Thursday about Krost’s addition to the team, “Tyron crushed the field at the Aussie Millions and it is a pleasure to get him on the team. When I first saw him, I thought he might need a trike, but now I expect him to be a Tour de Force in the poker world. There is so much more to come from him.”

Krost will make his debut as a member of Team PartyPoker on May 8 when he plays in the World Poker Tour’s Grand Prix de Paris. That event will be held at the Aviation Club in Paris.

Krost joins a formidable group of players at Team PartyPoker. Besides Tony G, that group includes Mike Sexton, Kara Scott, Dragan Galic, Ian Frazer, and Bodo Sbrzesny. Party Poker & Casino are known for being one of best online casinos & poker room for UK players.
