2006 WSOP Champion Jamie Gold Is Out
Jamie Gold, winner of $12 million on the 2006 WSOP Main Event, has already said goodbye to this year’s championship in just about a few hours into the game.
Gold’s behaviour suprised the participants, as when reaching the money bubble, he threw in his chips and his hand without even taking a look at it, announcing that he would be drinking in the bar in case anybody wanted to see him. He also added that he won an ’incredible’ amount of money with a bet.

In a race paying $800,000 for first place, an amount big enough to leave it must be considerable indeed, if a bit hard to imagine. Gold provoked heated arguments over his behaviour, some professionals even voting for official sanctions against him.
As no official statements have been released on either side, however, we are still waiting for some explanations and/or retributions to come.
