The 2023 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event is underway, and it was fitting that Jamie Gold was on-site at Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas to announce "shuffle up and deal" at noon on Monday.
Gold famously won the 2006 world championship event for a record $12 million, beating out 8,773 players, another record that still holds to this day, although it might not in a few days.
