In another brand alliance, partypoker has further consolidated its pro team rooster with the addition of American poker pro Jason Koon (cover image) as its latest pro. Koon will serve on the site’s new advisory panel too.

Koon has amassed over $10 million in live tournament cashes since 2008 with his biggest cash coming in January this year for $1.6 million where he took down the PokerStars Championship Barcelona $100K Super High Roller.

Earlier, partypoker added notables like Mike Sexton (Chairman), Boris Becker, Sam Trickett and German prodigy Fedor Holz to their team and the new addition certainly brings extra value for the team. Trickett recently even confirmed that he had spoken to Phil Ivey and Tom Dwan about making an appearance in the invite-only high stakes PLO game hosted on partypoker.

Koon commented his new role at partypoker and said, “partypoker is making some major moves to improve the entire poker ecosystem, both live and online, and I couldn’t be more thrilled to be joining them and playing a part in these endeavors. Seeing partypoker’s hunger to grow – as well as its interest in what players have to say – was the main selling point for me and I’m excited to see what the future holds.”
