Jamie Gold

2006 - WSOP

 


This is the last hand in the -2006 WSOP FINAL

Finaltable heads -up Poker-VM , Hand 236




Jamie Gold Wins after a fantastic WSOP main event -2006. Jamie beat all the players at the finaltable except for one player. Jamie get the huge amount of $12.000.000. Paul Wasicka gets $6.102.449 for his second place. Jamie is screaming loudly and goes up to the table looking at the huge pale of money. He says - it's a lot of money and throws a brick of cash in to the audience! I am not sure if he threw it to a friend or just someone randomly! He makes a phonecall to his dad and falls into tears! His dad could not be at the show to see him but he hope his dad will be proud (For sure he will). This is one of the greatest efforts with the hugest startingfield ever. 8000 players participated in the event. He says - Chan the great player helped him all the way. He said he played the players and not so many times the cards! He told the others what he got and they called!? Amazing strategy! Congratulations again Jamie Gold!
