Default Re: GSN invites Jamie Gold for HSP Season 3

Hmmm. If ego went to Jamie's head, he'd take up the invite but the potshots at his credentials and resume from the various bitchy Hollywood gossip blogs probably means he's backstepping a little bit and that he'll firmly take up a position behind-the-camera with his Buzznation production company.

Jamie will most likely only play in tournaments such as previously mentioned, Poker Superstars or various WPT events where he will be sponsored and unlikely to have to delve too much into his own pocket which would make a hole of whatever the IRS has left him with.

Bodog probably won't give him any money even for the prestige of having the latest WSOP Main Event champ amongst the high-rollers because you won't see Bodog on Jamie's clothing if he went on the show. If Jamie wants a shot, Jamie will have to pony up and pay his own way.

HSP is broadcast on Challenge TV in the UK but weirdly wasn't given any kind of a strong promotional push. A very cult show amongst all the flipping freaky shootout tournaments that dominates UK TV.
