Remember how Jamie Gold was promoting his new poker room on a fail "casino boat" in Florida?
Here is a terrible promotional video (Gold appears about 40 secs in):

Here is Gold playing actual poker there while some local performer covers a Brooks & Dunn song, and Jamie looks miserable:

Amazing that this guy won a $12 million first prize in 2006.
at the same time, i think we all have to grudgingly respect his decision not to kill himself.
you know, yet.
Druff,
I almost gave you a red for knowing this song is Brooks and Dunn. Not much poker in the second video -- it just looks like every photo posted by gamblebot. DrkStr is hopping on the 6:15pm flight to see if he can get any of the recent 1st divorce tail in that game.
i need to find a bookie willing to take action that one of those boats is going to sink in the first year, and possibly book a parlay that there will be widespread norovirus outbreaks as well.
Some bits from 4 different reviews.
"Drinking is free when you are gaming and if you have a platinum card you can have your drink upgraded to imported beer or top shelf liquor."
"Upon getting onto the boat the staff seemed very friendly and pleasant. A few seconds later we noticed a strange odor in the main gambling /dining area. We decided go to another floor and it was just as bad. We soon realized that It was moisture in the carpet. To escape this rancid odor we went to the last floor to get some air."
"For starters, the crowd was not very inviting and I thought I was in an episode of Florida gone wrong. It took 2.5 hours before gambling begun to come and find out that they were running on one engine delaying the fun.. An hour and a half later the gambling was shut down only to take 2 hrs to return bored and depleted. Huge waste of time, questionable meal, watered down drinks, and uncoordinated staff. Horrific excursion is an understatement and steer clear of this boat located in the ghetto of all ghettos!"
"Overall, had a good time, but their A/C was not working properly and it was SWELTERING all night inside the entire casino. Very uncomfortable."

Not that amazing Druff. Ever seen those shows about lottery winners and NBA players going bankrupt? Same thing.
i think gold needs to lay off the donuts and hire fluffer as his personal trainer
Why is this depressing? I think that this shit is fucking hilarious.
