Jamie Gold Responds to $12 M WSOP Lawsuit

[dogmeat]

There is another thread that lists a link to the court documents. If you want the "real story" according to Leyser, read the docs.

It's too bad that Gold appears to be trying to get out of paying this. Lots and lots of players have backers, even champions.

When Tom McEvoy played some tournaments after winning the WSOP he had backers - and paid them immediately.

When Hans "Tuna" Lund took backers for a Super Bowl Of Poker sat. and won, then won the main event, he paid his backers - immediately.

If Gold has a deal with a partner here - it will come out in court, however, the "discovery" period pretrial isn't even over until March of 2007...................could be a long wait.
