Katherine Kowal, the former director of casino and player relations at the World Poker Tour, was recently acquired by Dream Team Poker to become their new director of business development.  Kowal’s new duties include advancing Dream Team Poker’s casino presence and enhancing brand recognition among poker players. 

"Katherine has a proven track record of success everywhere she has been in the gaming and entertainment industry," said Dream Team Gaming CEO Daniel Delshad. "Her poker and casino acumen will help place Dream Team Poker among the elite gaming authorities in the industry." 

Along with working for the World Poker Tour, Kowal has also held positions with Nash Entertainment, The Learning Channel, and Fox Entertainment. 

The acquisition of Kowal comes during a major growth period for Dream Team Poker.  The company, which specializes in team-based tournament structures, recently announced their first major foray into events open to the public, with a $550 buy-in (per player) team tournament, to be held at Caesars Palace on March 27th.  For more information visit, www.dreamteampoker.com.
