Jamie Gold, the only honest poker player

[biblesalesman]

I love how Jamie Gold is completely honest about his skills and how he compares to his opponents.
Heres a bit from a 2/4 session where he is obviosly the table donkey:

pachabel: outclassed here I guess. I don't know anyone
pachabel: i don't know any bet but allo in
pachabel: if I lose hee, i will be playing 5-10
pachabel: i needed top top
pachabel: i'm not as good as them, but some people think
I'm lucky
pachabel: i eat top top
pachabel: ivey is my friend, he said he might teach me
horse
pachabel: i won a big nl tournament, i'm ok there
pachabel: i admit I'm not good to play everyone here, so
what, just having fun and i can afford it
pachabel: eeveryone tries to get me head up
pachabel: i may be a Gold fish, but I'm not stupid
pachabel: np titus
pachabel: ok mj, but I might not stay long
pachabel: have to stop playing every hand
pachabel: how much is big stacked
pachabel: i know where todd and i drank. i didn't know todd was asking
pachabel: you can tell it's me by the cards i hit

And hes so not funny that its actually funny. Donkey or not he managed to lose 10k which left him with 5, but shortly after he doubled a couple of times and he is now sitting with 37k, nice comeback...

pachabel: but the legal stuff was not true th way it was portrayed, i wasn't allowed to talk
Beef_Curtains (Observer): how do u feel about losing your bodog contract because u were scum
and tried to screw your buddy out of his half?
Thor2006 (Observer): lol

jamie left the table being up about 30k, now hes back and theres 7guys in line for his table. Theres another table 200 400 nl filled but with no one waiting to play. Funny that so many guys think that jamie gold is so dead money. Hes only sitting with 20k still every joe with 40k to spare wants to rib him

pachabel: they all want me, but they aren't always willing to pay eough
pachabel: when I play there is always a long list
jinsokkp: jamie, come to 100/200 with me
pachabel: jin you are too good for me, I admit that

pachabel: i think I'm a decent big stack tournament player
pachabel: i made some good bluffs but people don't give
me credit
pachabel: thank you cheeze, it was mostly luck, but I did
some things righgt
pachabel: whatever, it was the best I could play, I'm not a
pro

Seems Goldie has a somewhat shaky confidence

If he'd said things like this before and after the tournament I wouldn't despise him. Nothing wrong with saying you got somewhat lucky, but did somethings right. Nothing wrong with admitting you can't beat Ivey, Antonius, etc. It's just the acting like your the greatest ever based on one tournament that bothers me.

If this is the new JG I can handle it.

The idea that people actually think pachabel is Jamie Gold makes me LOL

It's seriously funny re-reading this table chat how people think that is Gold. He's laying it on awfully thick don't you think? A grade-schooler could see thru that nonsense...

[biblesalesman]

have you seen the guy play? its so obviously gold lol
