    2010 World Series of Poker

    Posted 5 minutes ago by danafish

    Jamie Gold - now several hundred grand richer.

    That is what our reporter told us as he recounted the tale of Jamie Gold's demise.
    As soon as the bubble burst, signifying that he had won his very hefty bet, Gold announced, "Never been so happy to cash in my life. Going out drinking if anyone's thirsty."
    So, here's what happened.
    Gold raised to 5,000 and the player on the button called. They saw a flop.
    Flop:
    Gold checked and his opponent bet 4,600. "Nice hand," said Gold and called.
    Turn:
    Gold checked and his opponent bet 11,200. "Nice hand," said Gold, and called again.
    River:
    Gold checked and his opponent moved all in to cover him. Gold called, and mucked his hand without looking. "I could have had the nuts," he said cheerfully, and left.

    this pretty much confirms what everybody has been saying about him all along.. surprised he didn't get any raise in though, I thought his goal was to be recognized as the "world's best bluffer" ?

    Hand for Hand, and One Big Potential Winner
    Posted 31 minutes ago by danafish

    We are now on the bubble, and we are hand for hand.

    By the by, it's not just whoever eventually wins this that could make a six-figure sum from this tournament. Jamie Gold took a bet before this that he would cash in his first WSOP tournament of the year. We understand that it was, in his words, "Two to one on a couple hundred thousand," and he is just about to win his bet.

    "I'm going to drink after we cash," he told his table. "I'll buy everyone drinks."

    Fair enough, sir. Fair enough.

    Yeah, who cares about the over 800k ftw on top of the "couple hundred thousand" if you can make it that far, Jamie. What a fucking moron.

    This is just horrible for the integrity of the game! He has lived up to what everyone has criticized him for...Why doesn't he just walk off and get blinded out of the tourney instead of doing an etiquette fuck up like this?

    FUCK YOU JAMIE GOLD!

    I never really gave a stuff one way or the other about this guy until this. Shows a total lack of respect for the game that has given him so much. What an ahole act. Also terrible 4 the public view of the game as I am sure this will be reported in the media. He has offically just made my list.

    I can't put it any better than Getumboy above

    Jamie Gold is a douchebag. We already knew that. The reporter that wrote this is also a douchebag for the title "Jamie Gold is my hero"

    I've always thought Jamie seemed like a real good guy, but this is a very shady and unfair move he pulled. This is just flat-out wrong.

    so who did he give his chips to? someone he knew or just a random that he wanted to be nice to? If hes happy cashing and winning his prop bet and doesn't want to play anymore I think it's fine as long as he's not dumping to one of his buddies or someone he sold his chips to.

    It's one thing to vacate your seat and choose to get blinded out after winning a huge prop bet but blatant chip dumping like that should get him banned from all future WSOP events. Total lack of respect for the game and the other players who want to win.

    is this a level? I thought he was a douche from the first time I saw him in the ME he won. And of course this case of chip dumping confirms it even more.

    pretty sure the other players don't mind jamie gold just spewing his stack.....I could be wrong maybe they'd rather he RESPECT the game and play to the best of his knowledge

    needless to say if he dumped chips to someone he actually knew then it's fucked up on all kinds of levels but I doubt that was the case

    um it is a disrespect to the game. im sure the other players do care especially those 7 other players who didnt get chip dumped. sure the guy who was gift wrapped a stack of chips doesnt care. i have no idea what was going on at the table but maybe he had a reason for giving the chips to the person he did. i would have no problem with him if he decided to play the hand blind and just look to bluff bluff bluff every street so atleast hes making the other party earn it. or he coulda just sat out.

    but with jaime gold it really doesnt surprise me at all.

    If he can flip over cards, tell his friends what he has and discuss what his actions will be in a 3 way pot on his way to winning 12 mil why start punishing him now?

    Chip dumping and soft playing are not within the rules.

    I'm pretty sure if the guy that got a free stack was one seat to my left and a good player that I wouldn't think it was "no big deal."
