Re: What was the conflict with jamie Gold?
Gold tried to get a free seat from Bodog at the WSOP for a "friend". Since that didn't work, he wanted to make the guy feel better and promised him to share the winnings from his seat.
After he won, the guy sued him for 6 million.
I don't know the verdict, but I assume the US comedy court went crazy like usual. In Europe, where we have reasonable rulings on such issues, the guy would have gotten half of the expected value from that seat at best. Judging Gold's skill, it amounts to something like $3,75 before taxes.
