Re: Jamie Gold Meta Game?

The funny thing is that you guys don't notice what Gold is doing. If he makes any sort of hand, his style will pay off huge. The problem with his play on HSP was that he started with suited crap and didn't improve.
Just look at Barry. He plays better values on average, but he either hits or bluffs just like Gold. The difference is that people respect Barry and fold, because he does show the nuts from time to time. Gold never made the nuts...

Uh ya, like when he had AA preflop, called, and raised all-in when someone raised? If he had really been setting up the table that whole time (LOL), he would have smooth called the raise and expected to get paid off after the flop. But he didn't, because he's a spazz who doesn't know how to play cash games.
Btw, the funny thing is that I watched his Live at the Bike appearance a while back, and he wasn't nearly as big of a donktard. I wonder if the WSOP win didn't warp his outlook on poker and make him believe that he is good enough to play every hand and win.
