Jamie Gold Leaves Aced Poker and Joins Poker Icons

A short while ago Jamie Gold signed what was said to be the biggest online poker sponsorship deal with new poker room Aced Poker.  Well a few months and Jamie Gold bounty tournaments later, it seems that Jamie Gold has left the emerging poker room.  Apparently, after the original press release the Aced Poker team was difficult to reach and Gold’s agent started to feel that the whole thing was just a publicity stunt.  Aced Poker implied that they may not be able to pay what they had agreed to and Gold’s agent instructed Jamie to pull out of the deal.  Gold did just that and after about 3 months the relationship between Jamie Gold and Aced has finished.  This is just the story from Jamie Gold’s agent though.  Aced Poker representatives say that they had every intention to continue with Jamie Gold, but he decided to pull out of the deal.

Some of the happier moments of Jamie Gold’s partnership with Aced included the initial announcement that took the poker world by storm and the Aced Poker team victory at the second Dream Team poker event where Jamie Gold led the team to victory.

Jamie Gold apparently didn’t like what was going on with his agent because it has been reported that Jamie split from her and joined a more popular poker pro agency, Poker Icons.  This move makes it seem like Jamie did not like the way his agent handled the whole Aced Poker fiasco.

Even after this unfortunate event Aced Poker is still a strong poker room in the online poker world.  Read a full Aced Poker review to learn more.
