Gabe Kaplan will have a new partner this year for GSN’s ‘High Stakes Poker’ and that partner is none other than poker pro Vanessa Rousso. High Stakes Poker is coming back for season 6 this year and long time co-host A.J. Benza will not be returning. Vanessa should be a nice compliment to Gabe’s old man comic ways and she should bring a breath of fresh to the program. Vanessa Rousso has been a member of Team PokerStars for quite some time and now looks to build a long healthy relationship with High Stakes Poker. New episodes are set to begin this February.
