And I basically told a friend of mine what I had because I didn’t want him to bust out and that was also really inappropriate. And I’m going to make sure that doesn’t happen again. People are just going to have to forgive me.” Link to post Share on other sites

Jeepster80125 0 Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 You should always listen to your parents.Oh and Texas Hold 'Em is the only form of poker that exists. No one cares F you A-holes, I'll nutbar a ten cent table if I want to.You're acting pretty arrogant for someone who has only been posting here for 6 ****ING DAYS.Slow down, or you might want to wipe the dust off your flame suit. Maybe if you added something positive you wouldn't be looked down upon, but at this rate, you'll never get any respect here, just responses that include cats and food recipes.

nutzbuster 7 Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 On a side note, and I never thought I'd say this, but for some reason I don't hate Gold as much as I used to. I have watched all of the HSP season 3's (actually why I'm saying this) and I thought he actually played pretty good there and seemed much better personality wise.Now, it could be that he was just in awe of everyone and on his best behavior as a result, but I decided to give him a pass...for now anyway. That said I still get creeped out by his eye-liner looking eye balls and goofy grin. Link to post Share on other sites
BDPoolie 0 Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 This doesn't really have anything to do with poker, but I think Jamie Gold looks very similar to Sean Maguire from "The Class".Sean Maguire PhotoJust an observation. Link to post Share on other sites
NEtwowilldo 0 Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 I see the resemblance.When I said no one cares I meant like Jaime Gold takes a lot of heat and seems to be a decent guy. He shouldn't have to apologize nationally for flashing a card. It's not a big deal.And I'm arrogant coming from a guy who's avatar is a sign saying "You're Retarded"P.S. It's been 13 days. :-) Link to post Share on other sites

GrinderMJ 0 Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 I used to hate Gold, but I'm starting like him more. He seems like a genuinely nice guy, and he's actually man enough to admit he made a mistake Link to post Share on other sites

BDPoolie 0 Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Gold will be broke by the end of the year playing cash gamesWith as much money as he won, he'd have to play REALLY BAD to lose that much in a year.Hopefully he isn't stupid enough to make the amount he won his "bankroll". I know I'd be investing the crap out of that money. With the low stakes I play, I could use the interest of that money as my bankroll. Link to post Share on other sites
