Jamie Gold Signs With Poker Icons

Jamie Gold, 2006 WSOP Main Event winner, joins the poker agency Poker Icons. Poker Icons are known as the premier poker agency for international world class poker players. Other members of Poker Icon include Annette "Annette_15" Obrestad, Juha Helppi and JJ "Joanne" Liu.


Jamie Gold:

"I am very glad to be a part of the Poker Icons team. Their international presence and poker expertise will make this a perfect fit for me. I am very much looking forward to working with them".


Jamie Gold was recently signed to Poker Aced just this past February but the partnership did not last long. A spokesperson for Jamie Gold said that Poker Aced broke the contact and did not follow through on their promises. Poker Aced has not said anything yet. It was rumored that Jamie Gold would be paid over $10 million for the contract but it doesn't look like Aced Poker was up for the task.

Back in 2006 when jamie Gold won the 2006 WSOP, Bodog signed Gold and shortly after cuts him from the team. Bodog said they no longer wanted to promote in the US and wanted to focus on the European market.

Now that Jamie is signed with Poker Icon, he plans to play in a few charity tournaments including a tournament at the Cannes Film Festival in France and a celebrity poker night on the 17th of May.
