Also, I am still unclear as to why Jamie Gold ever promised half of his winnings in the first place.

Despite his bluster, do you really think he imagined he would make the top 20?
And some reports made it seem like Gold wanted Leyser to play instead, but Bodog said Gold had to play. So then it would have been half of what Leyser won.

Yeah, I read this, but I don't understand why Gold would have promised his seat away in the first place to someone he hardly knew for services not worth close to 10K. It seems there is much more to the story than has been made public so far.
