Re: $37 into $28,000 in 2 days at ftp
yeah, and t.v. and the media are reliable sources of info too, right?
dont believe everything t.v. tells u. if jamie is a dirtbag, then leyser is one too. birds of a feather flock together. jamie is a nice guy. he never makes claims of being the best. he doesnt have to be a role model or a spokesman for poker. his buisness is none of our concern. and if he happens to be a dirtbag, then it doesnt mean he's a liar about "everything".

[/ QUOTE ] well, that is my view then. his buissness is not my concern. its not like he owes me any money. i dont trust ANYONE when it comes to money. u want to make it yur buisness, then go ahead. i dont respect people who look into other's backyard. his dealings with leyser is unproven he said she said drama. nobody except jamie gold knows what his true intentions were. so any speculation based on media tripe is not very wise. you can live your life like that, i won't. sure, i'm a fan of jamie gold. so what? he did a great job of winning the wsop. i respect his effort. he is trying to master "the hard game". he is trying to out play everyone. he's not a straight forward nit.......like myself. when jamie gets his game going, he's very tough. he made fools out of a lot of people last year. he did a great job. he doesnt owe the poker world anything. i dont see why anyone who wins the wsop should all of a sudden be a rolemodel or a spokesman for poker. he got in and played his ass off and doesnt owe anyone anything.......other than whatever buisness dealings he made which, like i said before, is no one's buisness except his own. at least jamie isnt a filthy beggar like joe hachem. joe gets his money in with the best and then starts to beg the dealer not to give him a bad beat. joe cant even be a man and look at the cards. he's got to walk away. what kind of "champ" is that? he's already won enough......got no worries......no need to "sweat" the cards anymore.

jamie is a nice guy. he never makes claims of being the best. [/ QUOTE ] He's described himself as the kobe bryant of poker. Now I don't know if Kobe is the "best" basketball player or not, but surely he's in the top five or so. Or at least he's clearly a world class player. So at the very least Jamie's called himself world class and one of the top handful of poker players in the world, if not literally the "best." Now, to be absolutely fair, if I recall the quote correctly, he actually placed those words in somebody else's mouth, I believe he claims Bodog said that about him, but I'm pretty comfortable thinking its actually coming directly from Jamie about himself and if not, he certainly didn't hesitate to repeat it. --Zetack

Re: $37 into $28,000 in 2 days at ftp
well, i never heard jamie say that. if anything, i have heard jamie say, in his own words, "i know i'm not a great player". ive heard him say that more than once.
lol, EVERYONE knows he's not a great player. he's only great when the cards cooperate.......but who isnt when that happens. still, he won last year and i tip my hat off to him. he got it done......regardless if he caught everyone in a cooler situation or drew out. cant argue with a winner.

Except, he thought it was, "Snufflafagus," with an "f". He entered the change, and then found that although it was accepted, that many letters wouldn't fit, so from that point on he was "Snufflafag."

Gold compares himself to Kobe Bryant - As added bonus, contradicts his later court filings versus Crispin You are right that in the face of withering criticism his interviews and pronouncements after a few months became much more humble.
