Jamie Gold\’s Horseman

LAS VEGAS–So everyone is talking Jamie Gold. He\’s been dominating since Day 3. Turns out there\’s an interesting story on how he got into the game. He\’s Johnny Chan\’s agent, of course — we all know that — and the inspiration for some character on \”Entourage,\” a show I don\’t watch. (But all that leads me to believe he might be an asshole.) Anyhow, he was negotiating with Bodog to get some celebrities seats. As part of the negotiation, he wanted two seats — one for himself and one for a friend.

This is where my info gets a little foggy, but basically he got one seat … and I\’m not sure how he and his buddy figured out how who got to play, but in the end, he took the seat … and now, of course, is guaranteed multiple millions.

But he\’s only got half of himself. The other half of whatever he wins will go to — inside sources say — WPT Boot Camp instructor Crispin Leyser.
