HSP Ep. 6- What is the read on Gold?
 

Daniel states he had a read on Gold, and then Harmon said she knew it too.

So what is it?

Uhm, you can hear what the read is in the actual episode when Negreanu whispers it in Jennifer Harman's ear.

...which was, as soon as he said "you don't want to get bluffed twice..." or something like that


Jesus, why didn't you just post it?

Um... maybe that he is a bad player whose bluffing and vbetting frequencies are horrible and his lines are very transparent?

He's a complete 'tard, he always bluffs like crazy on the end, then he missed two easy value bets on the end with like top pair and two pair. With his image he could get away with some pretty thin value bets, but he doesn't even make the simple ones. Seems like all he cares about is trying to bluff people.

Re: HSP Ep. 6- What is the read on Gold?
 

When will people realize he doesn't even really know what value bets, fold equity, and the like even are?

I mean...he doesn't even consider it. He just plays by the seat of his pants. horribly, I might add.

Re: HSP Ep. 6- What is the read on Gold?
 

He cares more about bluffing people off pots on the river than actually winning money.

He'll fail 50 in a row so on #51 he can flip up his "brilliant" bluff and show everyone how awesome he is, as he's down half his stack.

A terrible player and a terrible person.

How long before Gold is broke. Will he lose all of his main event winnings or stop say will a million left. He is a horrific player. He's way out of his league at high stakes games unless he's up against Farha, the single worst high limit NLHE player in history.

Gold better stay off the internet that's for sure. He's nothing but a live donk.. the reason why live games are so much easier.

I would venture to say that there a decent number of competent live players that don't fully understand concepts like fold equity or have even heard of the terms or math behind it. I doubt most of the best players 40 years ago really considered that stuff explicitly. But people who have played a decent amount and have an intuitive sense for prob/stat stuff will pick this stuff up w/o reading Sklansky.

Re: HSP Ep. 6- What is the read on Gold?
 

He opens his big [censored] mouth each and every time he bluffs. Thinks he's clever.

Re: HSP Ep. 6- What is the read on Gold?
 

lol at all of you haters - Jamie Gold is about 1.5 years along the way of what he sees as about a five to ten year trek toward becoming "the best bluffer" in poker. That's in between "bringing PLO back to America" of course. You go Jamie!

Yeah, I watched that about five times, and it still didn't read weak to me when he said that. Which is probably why I operate at first level thinking with only a dash of second level when I play live.

On the other hand, I did read him as weak several other places in the hand, most notably when they the flashed his hole cards on the screen and the board failed to hit them. I'm a genius reader of people when I know their hole cards.

I've seen the segment several times and still can't make out what DN says. It doesn't help that the chatter is split among the two Youtube files.

Was it the same read that Allen Cunningham had?

IIRC, the read from the WSOP was the way Gold acted. When he excitedly said something like, "I got you," he really did have the goods. When he dejectedly said something like, "you got me," he was bluffing. Problem is, no one believed him, so they called when he said "I got you" and they folded when he said "you got me"
