This reminds me of another poster who said Matusow gave away his hand with a 100% certainty when he had the nuts and was commenting that he didn't have a bunch of hands. Heck, Doyle did the exact same thing last week on PaD and had an absolute zero. I see the same stuff at least fifty times a week.
Same goes for your post. Gold does RANDOM things. Let me repeat: RANDOM. Even he has no idea until he's saying it. If he had a flush draw you would all be saying the same thing "OMG TELL BOX LOL!!! These are not tells...Just understand how stupid you are please. Let me give you an example of a possible tell that is extremely hard to spot. Phil Ivey tends to made a funny upward head movement when he has a very weak hand immediately after he bets it. Has anyone noticed it? I've seen it around twenty times now and have never seen him do it when he has a strong hand. Now this may be a credible tell. You see, I have a control in my assumptions. You have baseless, fact-less horse-crap!! For the love of God!! HELP ME!!!

My word...what's wrong with this forum? I read through some posts and so far 90% of it is fill with utter nonsense/crap.

It's not about WHAT he says, it's about HOW he's saying it. Being like "mmmm I'm waiting for a flush" and then second king appears, silence, hesitation and he bets while he tends to play very fast when he's bluffing....pro players pick up on that.

When the king hit, it really looked like it had him confused and was re-thinking over what he was supposed to say to confuse Eli's mind.

And yes this guy is arrogant. going to HSP donking away thousands of dollars always trying to bluff the best with air just to be able to show down ALL the ones that succeed (that is to say one or 2..), that's UBBER donk and arrogant.

Seriously, how much did this guy lost???
he got 12 millions in 2006 ME

-6 millions for his former "friend" whit whom he "agreed" giving half of his earnings.
-2 or 3 millions may have gone to Johnny Chan (25% of total earnings, sounds fair to me..)
- how much did he lose in HSP already?? Wasn't that close to half a million?

Did this guy even give money to charity?

At least, I really liked the way he played this episode. Last time he came with his bracelet and thought he had the image of a great champion, and that he just had to confirm it. Now he's just Jamie Gold...he doesn't make extraordinay plays, but he does them with style. He seems to have got over the fact that he's not the best player in the world, so instead he's trying his best to get the money in, taking advantage of his nit image, and not feeling the need to outplay everybody in every single hand..
