This television producer started his career in cards all because of the interest developed by his poker-playing mother and grandfather, a champion in his time. Now, he can add Las Vegas to his list of conquests. His winings did earn him access to one of the most exclusive clubs around, the few who own a World Championship bracelet of their own. Jamie Gold required no need of any Hollywood’s help. He brought his own success story and drama to the final table. He entered poker just because of the confidence and his insight.
When he stepped into Hollywood agent business, he represented many talented actors including James Gandolfini and Felicity Huffman. Yes, if you remember Johnny Chan who was represented by Jamie is the one who holds 10 World Series of Poker bracelets and is known to have huge fans all over the world as one of the most dangerous and talented players ever to pick up a deck of cards.
Well, his encounter at the table with Chan was indeed good and for a long time Chan washed him very badly. Yes, never to lose the hope and learning from this failure Gold proceeded to dominate the final event in 2006 WSOP. Last year, it was Joe Hachem. This year, it was the chip leader Jamie Gold who proved how to use mind game and patience to win the day.
Winning is a habit! .....All the Tourneys he played!
This July, you saw his truly action-packed final table. Gold has no single rule to play. His playing style changes with the mood swing of his opponent players. Gold made some well-timed bluffs and even took help from the cards in this match, which is why the success knocked his door. Jamie was able to put on the bracelet, he had worked so hard to earn after eliminating Paul Wasicka. That was impossible indeed and become this year's World Champion of Poker. In a short Q&A session after the match, Gold talked a bit about his experience at the WSOP this year.
