jfmclean 0 Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 After reading this article on the Bodog celebrity tournament, I didn't recognize 1 single name of a celebrity in the tournament. Seems like the Jamie Gold talent agency all shipping chips to him for the tournament he hosted, lol.===================================World Series of Poker champ Jamie Gold beat a litany of sports stars and celebs to take down the first BodogFIGHT "Celebrity" Poker Tournament in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada held Saturday.He was also the host of the event, which was held in conjunction with Bodog’s BodogFight: USA vs. Russia which was a pay-per-view event. Gold won a Giantto watch for his win, but the good stuff went to second-place finisher Aaron Douglas, who won an entry into the 2007 WSOP main event. Douglas. He won plays Chief Petty Officer Galen Tyrol on the Sci-Fi Channel's hit show, "Battlestar Galactica." The third place winner was actor Ryan Robbins, who currently stars on the Canadian TV comedy "Alice, I Think."Robbins won a Bodog Poker Set, which included a custom-made Bodog poker table and a custom Bodog poker chip set. Other celebs who attended the poker tourney included Jared Padalecki (Supernatural), UFC champ Phil "The NY Badass" Baroni, Tom Europe (CFL Hall of Famer), Michael Eklund (BloodRayne II: Deliverance, Intelligence), and Woody Jeffries (Blond and Blonder). They were joined at the BodogFIGHT PPV event by Paul McGillion (Stargate: Atlantis), Ty Olsson (Class of the Titans), James Tupper (Men In Trees), and actors Aleks Paunovic, Adrian Holmes, and Aaron Pearl.^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ WHO ???

Jeepster80125 0 Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Wow. Those are some huge names. I wish I could be as good an agent luckbox as jamie gold. He's not even important enough to capitalize. Link to post Share on other sites
pokuhplaya 0 Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 You all need to get off the Haterade. Posting a million topics about how much a tool Jamie Gold is, will not take back the fact he is the 2006 Main Event Champion or the $12 million. So get over yourselves, because I highly doubt Jamie Gold gives a rats *** what anyone thinks Link to post Share on other sites

freak2304 0 Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 i've heard of Phil "NY Badass" Baroni before just because i'm a follower of the UFC. BUT, i wouldn't call him a celebrity since he hasn't been any kind of a player in the UFC for many years. It's like saying Buster Douglas is a celebrity. Link to post Share on other sites

snooptoddd 0 Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 No shyt. Why no Canada?Don't worry, you're not missing anything. The software sucks, and if you're into sports betting, they have the most juice on all the bets.Plus, looks like they might be shrinking from the US market anyway ...
