Jamie Gold Online Poker – Not doing too good…

JamieFan — Mon, 23 Feb 2009 04:13:04 +0000

Here’s a ten minute video in which Jamie Gold quickly loses a couple $10,000 buy-ins. Some of the plays he makes are just plain questionable:

First big pot he gets in with AT, he re-raises the UTG attacker all-in on the turn when the K hits the J63 board. The King could be a scare card, but a KJ63 board isn’t really too safe when you’re playing a raised pot. His all-in is a pure bluff obviously (even though he did have a gutshot), and his opponent quickly called with J4. JACK 4. That’s how much he’s onto Jamie in this hand.
Jamie reloads to $10,000, and gets involved in this hand: Jamie calls a raise on the BB when the flop hits Q84. The flop is bet UTG and Jamie calls. K hits the turn, UTG checks, Jamie bets pot (1.1k) and gets raised BIG (+3k). Jamie calls sending the pot over $7.5k. UTG shoves the river, Jamie goes into the tank and calls off his last $6300 with AK, losing to a full boat. Lesson for Jamie: Floating is dangerous.
Two hands later (reloaded for another ten Grand) BIG bluffs the river with Qx (a hand he should have just mucked,…), going broke against two pair (making an excellent call).
Jamie rebuys again, (now with a full table, all here to take some Jamie-money, I’m sure), shoves the next hand with middle pair on a 4-card straight board – going broke again…

I mean, Jamie…. I’m a huge fan, but he was obviously steaming SICK and not playing even close to his best game. My feel: Jamie should really slow down and play the tournaments… The online poker cash games are probably a bit too tough for him…

Jamie Gold & Rakeback?

JamieFan — Tue, 28 Oct 2008 23:39:13 +0000

Haven’t heard too much on Jamie Gold as of lately. He is probably busy running his entertainment business or bluffing away in online poker.

Either way just wanted to mention I have been playing online recently and one of the players told me about rakeback. I have never used it before but looked into it and found out there are actually lots of offers and bonuses out there for all sorts of different poker rooms.

Rakebrain.com for example even runs free rolls for their special members and so on. I found them to come in pretty useful in my research. If you guys know more about this rakeback matter feel free to comment on this. Wonder if Jamie has a rakeback program haha…

Jamie Gold messes with Prahlad Friedman’s head

JamieFan — Mon, 15 Sep 2008 23:54:20 +0000

Prahlad Friedman is so sick. He KNOWS what Jamie most likely had but couldn’t make the call because it cost him too much… Very sick.

Jamie got Prahlad to fold simply by messing with his head. Who said Jamie wasn’t a Poker Genius? GUESS AGAIN!

Jamie Gold Talks at the 2007 WSOP

JamieFan — Wed, 27 Aug 2008 17:38:39 +0000

Now I’m a huge Jamie fan but this isn’t Jamie Gold is it? Complaining about people overplaying hands, calling out for a run of cards, etc… Come on Jamie — that’s what you want. People have to overplay their hands — it’s what makes you so much more likely to win than those morons. Let them overplay their hands — and take their money.

I do like it when he talks about the troubles of celeb life… I’m so sure it gets tough for Jamie…

Good to see a mention of Mitch Abrams too by the way. Senior year’s best friend of Jamie and long-time buddy.

Jamie Gold Outplays Alan Dvorkis, Boston Complains

JamieFan — Wed, 21 May 2008 01:54:04 +0000

Alan “Boston” Dvorkis thinks he’s so much better than Jamie and thinks he should share that with the rest of the world by berating an excellent play by Jamie who probably sensed weakness from the cap-wearing complainatron.

“That’s just not even poker”; donkey says.

Idiot — enjoy a great video and a great play by Jamie.

Mike Sexton and Mike Matusow rightfully think this is funny too.

Sam Farha’s Aces vs. Jamie Gold’s Kings

JamieFan — Sat, 12 Apr 2008 17:52:54 +0000

Both Sam Farha and Jamie Gold feel like they’re playing like a genius pre-flop (which I believe they both are, this is superstar poker by both of them, rightfully thinking they have the best hand) – but it’s cold deck for Jamie. From the turn on, Jamie realizes he might be up against AA and he manages to push Sammy off of his game and save some money that was going in anyway.

This is the strength of Jamie Gold. Played this great.

Arrogant Jamie Gold?

JamieFan — Tue, 18 Mar 2008 03:11:30 +0000

I hate to see videos of Jamie when he’s acting like this… He’s talking about football (fine), poker (eeuh, not that ok) — but when he talks about the charities he just looks like a total douche… How can someone not know what kind of charity he is there for? He’s basicly saying: “I don’t give a flying *** about the charities, I’m in it for the cash”.

Look, Jamie’s not like this — I hope, but he really should watch his mouth when people are watching… Image-wise, that is. :s

Jamie Gold’s TOP TOP!

JamieFan — Wed, 12 Mar 2008 01:34:36 +0000

Jamie has TOP/TOP!!! WHAT ARE YOU DOING MAN I HAVE TOP TOP. I TOLD YOU I HAVE TOP TOP!! People make fun of Jamie because of this hand but I actually think it’s funny, in a panzy-kind of way.

The table talk didn’t matter too much in the hand — it was destined to go down like this. Luckily for Jamie, no diamond rolled off.

My favorite Jamie Gold photo

JamieFan — Thu, 06 Mar 2008 21:50:29 +0000

This is by far my favorite Jamie Gold photo. Too bad it’s a fake.

It’s a Raffles Beverly Hills room merged with a photo of Jamie celebrating his WSOP win.

Jamie Gold, Chip Leader at the Borgata Open

JamieFan — Wed, 06 Feb 2008 14:24:46 +0000

Jamie is the chip leader at the Borgata Open, but he isn’t feeling too healthy after a long night… Not only does he not look focussed here, his talk isn’t the talk of the Jamie I know and love… It seems like for some reason, Jamie was struggling to concentrate on ANYTHING at this point…

Interesting video — well worth the watch. Thanks Pokerwire and Amanda Leatherman for the interview!
