ich kann mir folgendes Posting einfach nicht verkneifen, man wird ja richtig zum Fan von diesem Wahnsinns-Typ:
ich habe mich neulich etwas disrespektierlich gegenüber Chris Moneymaker geäußert, und auch seine Fähigkeiten, in einer Werbekampagne eine marketingtechnisch durchschlagende Rolle zu spielen zu können, nicht nur in Frage gestellt, sondern ihn gar quasi als Langweiler oder Schlaftablette tituliert.
Leute, hiermit gebe ich kund:
Auch ich kann mich mal irren, ich habe meine Meinung total revidiert, was ist das für ein geiler Typ, absolut Wahnsinn diese neuen Spots im DSF mit Money das müssen so 2,3,4 verschiedene neue allein mit ihm sein,
der Moneymaker ist der Rake-Bringer für Pokerstars, nicht Isabelle Mercie oder Luca Pagano oder gar Katja Thater, die alle von Stars bezahlt werden (wofür eigentlich ?)
Was ist dieser Moneymaker für ein Temperamentsbolzen, ich bin überzeugt,
der kann so richtig die Sau rauslassen, der schmeißt doch eine Runde nach der anderen
und wie der im schneidigen Sportwagen abdüst, wie der die Geld-Scheine rausläßt.
Aber so war er schon immer, das wurde an charakteristischen Stellen aus seinem vor-Pokerstars Leben deutlich.
Und habt ihr diesen "Trinkkumpel" gesehen (soll wohl ein Saufkumpan von Money sein) ?
, um den ihn wohl jeder beneidet, tolle Typen die beiden,
auch der ehemalige Arbeitskollege (auch ein Riesentyp) und sein Exboss versichern glaubhaft,
daß er naja früher wohl ein fleißiger Buchhalter war.

Hier noch eine Kurz-Bio von Jamie Gold gefunden bei Pokerlistings.com:
Jamie Gold is a Los Angeles, Calif.,-based television producer who got his start in cards while growing up in a competitive household with his poker-playing mother and grandfather, who was a gin rummy champion.
After obtaining his bachelor's degree from the University of New York at Albany, where he graduated with honors, Jamie moved to California in 1991to study entertainment law at UCLA. Having obtained valuable work experience in the entertainment business when he interned at the J. Michael Bloom & Associates Talent Agency in New York City at the age of 16, Jamie immediately found work in L.A. as a talent agent and over the years was an employee of several high profile agencies. He co-founded an agency in 1994 and in 1996 started his own firm, JMG Management.
Known around Hollywood for discovering new talent and developing the careers of up-and-coming artists, Gold has worked with actors James Gandolfini ("The Sopranos"), Felicity Huffman ("Desperate Housewives"), Jimmy Fallon ("Saturday Night Live"), Lucy Liu ("Charlie's Angels") and Kristin Davis ("Sex and the City").
Recently, however, Gold quit his career as a talent manager and began working as a television producer full time. JMG, a small and personal company, has a slew of projects in development including an untitled poker show featuring 2003 WSOP Main Event Champion Chris Moneymaker and 10-time WSOP bracelet winner Johnny Chan, who has given Jamie poker tips and tutorials in recent years.
These days, Gold plays live poker 40 hours a week at the Commerce, Bicycle and Hustler Casinos near L.A, and almost never competes online. A self-proclaimed poker book junkie, Gold has honed his skills in high stakes cash games over the last several years and has placed in a slew of tournaments in the L.A. area, including in the Bicycle Casino's Stars and Stripes tournament in 2006 where he won first place and $60,000.
Gold has a number of other in-the-money finishes under his belt, such as a fifth place finish in the $300 No-Limit Hold'em event at the 2006 Winnin' O' the Green at the Bicycle Casino; a seventh place finish in the $100 No-Limit Hold'em event at Larry Flynt's Grand Slam of Poker IV at the Hustler Casino in 2005; and an eighth place finish in the $500 No-Limit Hold'em event at the 9th Annual National Championship of Poker at Hollywood Park Casino in 2005.
Jamie entered the 2006 World Series of Poker Main Event under the auspices of Bodog.com as a member of a celebrity team that included Mekhi Phifer ("ER") and Dean Cain ("Lois and Clark"). His final table finish represents the first time he has ever made it to a WSOP final table.

Seltsamerweise konnte ich auf der Pokerstars-Website nirgendwo finden, wie viel die "1600+" Pokerstars-Spieler im Main Event denn nun zusammen gewonnen haben.
Zum Glück stehen auf dieser Seite alle Cashes von Pokerstars-Spielern:
http://www.pokerstarsblog.com/2006/08/w ... event.html
Ich habe es selbst zusammen gerechnet und bin auf 13,1 Millionen gekommen, und das bei 1624 (auch selbst ausgerechnet aus der Liste, die man bekommt, wenn man auf die "1600+" klickt) Spielern.
Insgesamt haben alle Pokerstars-Spieler zusammen also nur nur 80,7% ihrer Startgelder gewonnen, obwohl es drei an den Final Table geschafft haben. Kein Wunder, dass diese Zahlen nirgendwo stehen.

Danke für die Info
Seh schon den neuen PokerStars Werbespot vor mir:
Totalaufnahme einer verotteten Kneipe:
Schnitt auf drei entäuscht dreinblickene Gestalten
"Wir sind Doug Kim, Erik Friberg und Dan Nassif und wurden vom World Champion 2006 als erste vom Tisch gebustet. Wenn auch sie lernen wollen wie leicht einem der Big Blind geraised werden kann dann melden sie sich noch heut bei Poker Stars an. Dort kriegen sie zwar keinen Willkommens- u. Reloadbonus oder eine anständig designte Software, aber dafür können sie sich von echten Profis ausnehmen lassen und müssen nicht ihren letzten Cent durch einen Bad Beat gegen Josepf Jedermann verlieren.
Schnitt auf Chris Moneymaker der hinterm Tresen steht
Also melden sie sich noch heute bei Poker Stars an.
Bittttttteeee!!!
Die Bezahln uns sonst nich mehr und nochmal haben wir nich so viel glück.
PS: Nicht falsch verstehen habe nichts gegen die Spieler von PokerStars, sondern bin nur von deren Marketingcampange und Werbespots schwer genervt.

Hier mal ein Bericht, der nicht von einer pokerseite stammt (aus yahoo):
Jamie Gold wins World Series of Poker
LAS VEGAS - Former Hollywood talent agent Jamie Gold pulled off his best acting job ever early Friday, bluffing his way to victory at the World Series of Poker and taking home the grand prize of $12 million.
Gold, of Malibu, Calif., somehow convinced Paul Wasicka he had a weaker hand, getting him to push all his chips in the pot. The 36-year-old Gold screamed for joy to see Wasicka pocket 10s to his pair of queens.
It was the last bit of overacting for the former agent to the stars, who had bluffed and cajoled his way to the chip lead during the last four days of play.
"I knew that he was weak but he had a hand. And then I knew it was my chance," Gold said. "I went all in and then I just went into my act. I actually talked him into calling with the worst of it and that won the whole tournament."
Wasicka said he felt he could tell when Gold was bluffing even after he fell into his trap.
"I felt like I had a perfect read on him all day, whenever he would show his bluff, I thought he was bluffing," said Wasicka, a 25-year-old former restaurant manager from Westminster, Colo. "But against a player like that it makes it really difficult. You kind of just have to go with your gut. That's what I did and it was wrong."
By the time Gold and Wasicka were the last two players left from a field of 8,773 entrants, huge bundles of cash were deposited on the poker felt. But most of the chips were on Gold's side of the table.
He had eliminated six of the previous seven players himself, and Gold's 79 million in chips covered a good corner of the table. Wasicka's 11.2 million was badly overmatched.
Each player Gold wiped out fell victim to a different game.
Dan Nassif, a 33-year-old newspaper ad sales executive from St. Louis, busted out in the first 20 minutes of play when he went all-in with an ace and king and a plain-looking board of five, three and two. Gold was holding pocket twos, giving him a killer three-of-a-kind.
Nassif jokingly apologized "to everyone back home who ordered the pay-per-view" after his short final table run to finish ninth. He said he would return to his job despite going home $1.57 million richer.
"It's been a great experience, it's been a wild ride," he said.
Gold also knocked out Swedish pro Erik Friberg, when Friberg went all-in with a pair of jacks but ran smack into Gold's pocket queens. For good measure, Gold hit another queen on the river, sending the 23-year-old Friberg home in eighth place with $1.97 million.
"I'm feeling disappointed," said Friberg, the third Swede to make it to the World Series' final table in the past three years. "I don't know what happened out there."
Doug Kim, a 22-year-old recent Duke University graduate from Martsdale, N.Y., went out in seventh when he pushed in for all of his some 4 million in chips holding pocket nines and a flop of three, four, four. But Wasicka had him covered with pocket queens.
"I thought this was as good a spot as any to stick it in there," said Kim, who finished with a $2,391,520 payday. "I'm satisfied with my play. I have no regrets."
Gold's third victim of the final table was 55-year-old retired San Antonio businessman Richard Lee, who Gold had been reraising all night.
Just calling the big blind, or limping, with pocket queens, Gold watched as Lee raised to 1.2 million. Gold set the trap by reraising to 4 million and Lee, holding pocket jacks, went all-in for twice that amount, which Gold called instantly.
Lee busted out in sixth for a payday of $2,803,851.
A gracious Lee denied that the bluff set him up for a fall. "I knew he had some kind of a hand, I just didn't give him credit for that big of a hand."
Later, Rhett Butler, a 45-year-old insurance agent from Rockville, Md., busted out in fifth for a $3.22 million payday when he moved all-in with pocket fours but Gold called with a king and jack and got a jack on the board for a higher pair.
Michael Binger, a 29-year-old from Atherton, Calif., with a Ph.D. in physics from Stanford, was wiped out in third, for $4.12 million. Gold called an all-in bet holding an unsuited three and four and made a straight on the turn.
Even tournament pro Allen Cunningham, 29, of Las Vegas, fell in fourth when his pocket 10s failed as Gold's king and jack made a pair of jacks on the board.
Cunningham, who won his fourth World Series event last month, was favored by some to win the main event because of his experience. But once Gold controlled more than half the 87.7 million chips in circulation, he made it difficult for other players to raise pots with anything but undoubtedly the best hand.

Michael Binger, a 29-year-old from Atherton, Calif., with a Ph.D. in physics from Stanford, was wiped out in third, for $4.12 million. Gold called an all-in bet holding an unsuited three and four and made a straight on the turn.
Even tournament pro Allen Cunningham, 29, of Las Vegas, fell in fourth when his pocket 10s failed as Gold's king and jack made a pair of jacks on the board.
Cunningham, who won his fourth World Series event last month, was favored by some to win the main event because of his experience. But once Gold controlled more than half the 87.7 million chips in circulation, he made it difficult for other players to raise pots with anything but undoubtedly the best hand.

Welches Buy-in meinst du?
Falls du das buy-in für das WSOP NL Championship Turnier meinst, das beträgt 10.000$.

Die Scheidung – Jamie Gold und Bodog
von Gohar » Mittwoch 31. Januar 2007, 17:01
Medienberichten zufolge hat die Online Gaming Gruppe Bodog den Vertrag mit dem Sieger der 2006 World Series of Poker, Jamie Gold, gekündigt. Die Begründung dafür ist aber mehr als unglaubwürdig.
Jamie Gold
Der Auslöser für die Vertragskündigung soll der UIGEA sein. Riptown Media, die Marketingfirma von Bodog, hat die Kündigung bestätigt und ließ verlauten, dass sich Bodog aus dem amerikanischen Markt weitgehend zurückziehen möchte. Wie andere Online Gaming Seiten versucht auch Bodog jetzt, in Europa und Asien Fuß zu fassen. Und deshalb ist es besser, europäische Pokerprofis als Werbeträger einzusetzen als amerikanische.
Auf keinen Fall habe die Kündigung mit Jamie Golds Gerichtsverfahren wegen den gewonnenen $12,000,000 zu tun. Die Hälfte davon liegt noch immer auf Eis, das Verfahren, ob er diese Hälfte an einen TV-Produzenten abtreten muss, läuft noch.
Von Bodogs Seite wünscht man Jamie Gold nur das Beste und das war es dann auch schon. Warum David Williams, Josh Arieh und Evelyn Ng – alles samt U.S. Profis – weiter im Team Bodog bleiben, und warum sie ins neue Werbekonzept passen, wurde jedoch nicht erklärt….

Jamie Gold and Crispin Leyser Settle WSOP Lawsuit

Man hat sich dann doch geeinigt:
Jamie Gold and Crispin Leyser Settle WSOP Lawsuit
Dispute Over $12 Million WSOP Poker Winnings Resolved Out of Court
The Associated Press has reported that World Series of Poker main event winner Jamie Gold has agreed to settle a $12 million dispute with Los Angeles TV producer Bruce Crispin Leyser. In a joint signed statement released on Tuesday, bothJamie Gold After Winning the 2006 World Series of Poker have agreed the matter should be resolved “without litigation.”
"Jamie always intended on sharing his winnings with Crispin," the statement says. "Jamie and Crispin are happy to report they have fully settled this matter. They are pleased to be closing this chapter and look forward to continued success."
The former Hollywood agent turned poker pro won the 2006 WSOP main event by defeating 8,772 players. Since then the dispute has been a black eye on the poker industry, the WSOP, and the parties involved.
The two did not make clear how much money Leyser would receive as Gold has already withdrawn half of the $12 million in winnings. The rest was frozen by court order after Leyser filed suit against Gold last summer in Las Vegas court.
Leyser said Gold agreed to the split in exchange for finding celebrities to represent Bodog by wearing their logo while playing in the $10,000 tournament
Leyser kept a voicemail that Gold left on his phone on the final day of the tournament in which Gold promised to pay Leyser "your half."
At a December court hearing, U.S. District Court Judge Roger L. Hunt rejected a motion by Gold's lawyers to lift an injunction set in September on the $6 million. The money remained inside the Rio All Suite Hotel Casino vaults until Hunt finally order the frozen funds to be moved into an interest-bearing account.
Hunt also indicated that Leyser would likely win his claim to the $6 million.
The following is a joint statement received on Wednesday from Jamie Gold and Crispin Leyser regarding the resolution of the civil lawsuit.
"Jamie and Crispin went into the World Series of Poker as friends. There was an agreement that Jamie would share his winnings with Crispin. After Jamie won the tournament, Jamie and Crispin began to be pulled in different directions. Jamie always intended on sharing his winnings with Crispin. Both now agree that this matter should have been resolved without litigation. Jamie and Crispin are happy to report they have fully settled this matter. They are pleased to be closing this chapter and look forward to continued success."
