[Newjabber]

Has the Jamie Gold bounty tournament been removed?

Word is that Gold has left Aced due to a contract dispute. Jamie Gold, Aced.com Part Ways | PokerNews.com

Yowza, more industry drama.

[Gydian]

Can we get some details on this Brandon?

[Knup]

Wow... I missed this news as well. That is unfortunate for Aced!

This news will see alot of players not only turn their back on the site but new sign ups will refrain from joining.

Brandon, you got more info on this for us that are promoting your room?

Thanks

[Gydian]

Yeah. Non-payment is never cool.

[PokerNations]

Let's not jump to conclusions yet. Jamie does have a previous history of sketchy litigation with the guy he was supposed to give half his winnings too. And we haven't heard any problems that I'm aware of with Aced not paying players or affiliates, just a news story about Jamie.

At least give Brandon a chance to respond before we start passing guilty verdicts.

I will be posting a response to this very soon, as you can imagine somethings need to be done prior to a public response.

I will say, that you guys know me, and know that none of what is being said is how I operate. It was shocking to say the least...

[Gydian]

Indeed. I should have added "if that were the case" to the end of my post. Really looking forward to seeing this get straightened out. I can just imagine the PR nightmare this has caused.
