Jamie Gold Nears the Felt

...After doubling up Marcello Marigliano in a strange preflop all-in-fest. Gold moved in for around 55k on the button, and quick as a flash small blind Marigliano called all in (for 44k). Big blind Dominic Kay thought about it, with Jamie Gold saying, "Think how much money you could win. You're getting the right odds..." He passed though, and Marigliano turned his hand over first.

He had {3-Diamonds}{3-Spades}.

A surprised Gold said, "That's the best I could hope for!" showing {A-Clubs}{4-Hearts}.

The flop came {10-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{A-Spades}, and a brief spate of somewhat coarse language was softened by, "Nice hand," as the turn and river came {K-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}. Then the edge was roughened up again, as the cameras caught Gold saying, "Called with threes. This is the World Series....there's a difference between pushing with it and calling with it for all your chips."

Table Talk: Gus's Recorder

Over at the featured TV table, Gus Hansen has a small recording device. After he plays a hand, he gets up and walks around while speaking into the recorder... in his native tongue of Danish. Since I don't speak fluent Danish (or any Danish for that matter), I have to assume Hansen is talking about the hands he just played, or about the pretty girls on the rail.
