A Hand in Poker History: Doyle vs Gold
High Stakes Poker 3 – 2006 WSOP Champion Jamie Gold’s first hand.
Doyle Brunson raises to 2K with AQ, everyone folds around to Jamie Gold, who calls with QT. Always the gambler Daniel Negreau also calls with 5-2 Clubs and we see a flop.
The flop lands 6-K-J and its checks all round. The turn is the ten of clubs, giving Doyle the absolute nuts.
Doyle fires out of the gates and raises to $8,000, Gold decides to try to make a move and re-raises to $20,000. Negreau quickly gets out of the way folding over to Doyle, who begins his poker lesson.
Doyle looks at Gold and casually jokes “This is real money here Jamie. How much did you start with…” Jaime replies “$100,000”. Doyle pretends to have forgotten his cards, re-checks his cards and replies “OK, lets go” and re-raises to $100,000.
Gold quickly folds muttering, “I’m not ready for that!” Now that was an understatement.
