He’s probably got through his whole life without getting punched in the face.
That's truly the issue with this world now.
Exactly what I was thinking
I reckon he has
thats funny because i was thinking theres nothing wrong with this little twerp that a broken nose wouldnt fix
Same thought..
The fact I’ve never heard of this kid until this video is all I need to know about his poker skills.
To be fair everyone knows of Jamie Gold and he's not all that flash hahah
A ton of GREAT poker players out there we have no idea who they are tho
You are too young maybe. Everyone who watched WSOP in 2006 knows him
I definitely remember this guy when watching the WSOP 2006 and cheered against him....
@@Nash9r Nah, I watched all poker shows religiously back then and I only have faint memories of this guy. Very forgettable character.
He is what he says he is. A gambler not a poker player. You can read him like a pamphlet. All emotion.
That's exactly what happened on the last hand. Dude might not have shoved on a suited flop had he been up against a better player. Chipstacks factored in there, too, I'm sure. But that dude read Molina "like a pamphlet" as you said.
No way you get to 321k earnings just by gambling with worse odds
well he got u thinking what he wants u thinking looser lol
@henk4650 everyone goes on lucky runs
@@Dr-puppenstein calling 321k earnings lucky odds is hilarious
When Jamie Gold is the voice of reason, you know you're just plain wrong.
Someone making Jamie Gold seem likeable, never thought I’d see the day.
🤣
my EXACT thoughts. I remember hating Gold but I don't remember Molina at all. This was my 3rd year following the main event. Even though I personally hate people like this, Will K, or the bull doser it makes for entertaining TV.
Lol so true
Jamie gold is likeable imo and one of my favorite poker players. He made that 2006 World Series awesome
😂😂
he has king geoffrey vibes
I couldn’t think of who he reminded me of.
Joffery?
Inbred
Imagine having this kid as an employee. Total nightmare.
Guys like him don’t make it through the hiring process.
@jcorb it's great isn't it
Imagine this being your kid.
@@MegaFlorest Ikr. Probably coddled like a baby all the way through college.
Imagine having you as a boss. Total nightmare.
4:41 "what are you doing unsupervised" had me dead 🤣😭
I feel bad for the dealer having to sit next to him.
Molina a walking advertisement for birth control 👍
😂😂😂😂😂
BDE is real, love. But if it makes you feel better about your "situation"...
Legendary comment 🤘🙌
His final hand might be the worst call in WSOP history. It's amazing how a kid who played a hand that badly made it as far as he did. It's equally amazing that this 110 lb. twerp didn't get ragdolled in the parking lot with the way he spoke to other players during this tournament.
So you're that sensitive type at the poker table huh? Lol
@@hattershouse710 fs he is
he played it horribly.. but also this is like day 5 or so of the event.. thats a lot of stressful poker. imagine hardly sleeping.. your body is on a high for 5 days straight.. sometimes dumb plays happen.. his was extra dumb..
Ragdolled? Lol for what? Have you ever played at a poker table with real money? Molina is the boss.
And since then, he has become a legend in the janitorial game.
How's that game going for you?
@@MichaelShinosky Well alot of maintenance men make 6 figures especially School Janitors, so i gotta say. What do you mean?
@@kyle6597 My question wasn't directed towards you. There's no need for interjection on behalf of custodial engineers.
@@kyle6597 🤣Janitors don't make 6 figures...
@@kyle6597 what planet are you living on and where did you get that info? A school janitor or general maintenance man might make $50k a year on the high end. Not to criticize because that’s a respectable living, but it isn’t close to six figures.
his Punk factor is off the charts. could be worse, you could be his proud parents.
It’s great when he makes a mistake and it’s no big deal but when his opponent makes a mistake he berated them
The other players at the table showed amazing restraint. What a petulant child.
That’s white privileged but your probably white yourself and won’t admit it
can't believe anyone would consider shaking his hand. unbelievable.
He's one of those little punks that gets in someones face talking crap and when he gets smacked wants to call the cops. He would be the guy that runs up behind someone and punches them blind sided.
I was thinking the same thing. But I would step up as soon as he went outside.
Lot's of those dipsticks around
Ya but if you got blind sided by this guy you’d just turn around and punch his head in
@@L3GHO5T Well.....yeah! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Agreed
Luke Schwartz, Tony G, Eric Molina and Phil Helmuth on the same table would be an excellent adventure.
Tony g would own them all
Add Sammy Farha too lol
I would add Josh Arieh to the table
i'd add Jamie Gold and drunk Scotty Nguyen
@@user-uc3pv4sh2x I believe we now have a table!!
I remember watching this when it was first broadcasted. 2006 was a great time for watching the WSOP, it was on ESPN every single day! Different events too, not just the Main. What a time.
I liked watching all the side events like Raze and PLO
U don’t like ESPCNN?
@@chongli3007 It's actually MSESPN
Do you know how much money it was to get in the game??
Many major sport league lockouts got poker on TV
The dude did admit from the jump that he's a gambler first, poker player 2nd.
That Jamie Gold side bet action aged well.
The look on his face when his oppent rolled over 2 of his outs that last hand......priceless.
He told his family he got caught but no, he made the stupidest call ever on a two card draw. He was losing the whole time and he wasn’t the one who pushed, he CALLED so no he didn’t get caught, HE did the chasing and missed.
Hardly the stupidest call ever. It's 700k to win 1.9 million so he only needs about a 37% chance to win to make it worth it. He's a bit unlucky that he's up against 99, if he's up against tens or jacks he has four more outs and it's pretty much mathematically correct to call (close enough that it comes down to tournament dynamics).
The overbet on the flop is more questionable IMO because it makes it really hard to have a flush (especially at the time this happened), which in turn means there's a lot of hands your opponent can comfortably shove with.
@@doktarr If his opponent has 1 spade in his hand he is a massive underdog, the call really is stupid
Stupidest call ever? He had most of his stack in the pot he didn't have much choice.
@@moneyindabank He didn't have most of his stack in the pot, he still had 800k behind.
@@moneyindabank As I said above, even if his straight outs weren't blocked it's still a slightly bad call when you do the math. So, not the worst call ever, but definitely a bad call.
Jamie Gold
“I’ll see you at the end…I mean sorry, no I won’t.”
Very true indeed.
So funny. Gold went broke within like a year of winning. This kid plays online and still kills it to this day.
Hahahahaha!
@@byebyebye1334gold still plays high stakes at the bike from time to time. He did lose a lot but he’s still set for life lol. If you don’t know know him, don’t speak on him?
if he said anything like this to any of these guys outside a casino he would get his face caved in lol
“What are you doing unsupervised..”probably the best line on commentary 🤣🤣🤣
Especially cause his parents showed up the next day hahahaha
Time stamp pls
He has the confidence of a man that's never been punched in the face
Talked all that trash, just to call off his stack with 7 high. Hahaha. WASTED.
In a spot where he could be drawing dead too 😂
By the sizing it feels that he was pot commited...the stupid math of his betting on the flop was different story
@@michalprovaznik9687 I think players will make that big bet so that if they get a fold they can brag about how great they are to bluff so much money, and if they're called, they're "pot committed" so it's not a bad call.
@@bomblade15 agree with that
And he won $300,000, who’s the loser here???
0:29 Jamie crushed that side bet 🤣
😂
Why?
@@virtuoso1064 he literally won that tournament.
Just by a bit lol
Molina said "Sure......how about you call me then." XD
Eric Molina is what we call a Bingo player
Exactly. I played a little in Vegas and nothing annoyed me more than the idiot bingo players sucking out with garbage.
Explain

@@gregsears6611 but yet there are 64 likes on the comment. Explain.
@@mrmonk1257 Bingo players just shove all in pre flop constantly and hope to hit. They don't play with skill they just try to win coin flips.
What a classy guy. His parents must be so proud on how he represents them in his tone and actions.
Too true!
His parents were proud dipshit
Textbook example of upbringing without discipline.
Punted his major run away. So sad 😞
All he's gotta do is fold and wait for a better spot. Too much gamble there. No surprise his career never took off.
Too much ego to play well
Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. s/
Didn't even have a spade lol donkey call no matter how you look at it
Pretty common theme in poker, wild players who get a little bit of minor success due to their erratic play this then inflates their ego, they think they are better than they are (EVERYBODY else is aware of this fact) then they quickly disappear into obscurity and the only thing left is a video on RUclips of their feeble efforts.
👍
Not enough people get punched in the face now days ! He forgets he's not behind a keyboard. One of these days some 80 year old will clean his clock for him. LOL

He knows nothing will happen at a poker table. Plain and simple
Depends on the table
You think he was scared of Jamie Gold?! 😆
Can you imagine how many people were probably waiting for this guy in the parking lot after the main event 😂😂
If you watch the complete 2006 coverage the second time you see him he's very quiet. Somebody at the table commented "got dragged into a bathroom, huh?".
@@corruptedewok2478 😂😂😂😂

LOL no cause most poker players look like Jamie Gold.
@@byebyebye1334 then you got some like Sam Farha who look like they’ve tossed a couple bodies into a lake, so ya never know
I like playing against guys that say they aren’t afraid to gamble. Usually means they are willing to go all in with low chance draws.
would LOVE to see a table with this kid, Phil Helmuth, Tony G and Mike Matusow what a battle of the mouths!!!
Freeman watching in the background thinking to himself, how can I get to be famous on RUclips? Maybe I’ll bother Lisandro
He probably put all his winnings on a number in roulette afterwards, hit and then retired and that’s why we don’t see him anymore!
I'm afraid lost, but sure.
@@kilianbauer3942 he’s saying we don’t hear about him anymore cause he’s broke and his career never took off …
More likely his new saying is, "would you like fries with that?"
Half on red,half on black and it came up green.
With a a mouth like his? Probably dead in a gutter somewhere.
I am incredibly shocked we never heard from this guy again…………incredibly shocked.
I have never felt better seeing someone get eliminated
gold didnt have any money on the side to bet.
Well i can understand the tactical trash talk to make a player on tilt and making mistakes, not the disrespect after busting
So, that small kid in high school who always wanted to fight big guys, finally got his chance to beat someone at the poker table.
Its 2023 and this guy now cleans the bathrooms at the casino
Pencil arms is only tough when there are people around to make sure it doesn't go too far.
🤣🤣🤣
Kinda weird to highlight this kid 15 years later lol. Imagine having this surface again when everyone forgot.
The video can only influence people to look this guy up and possibly harass him for how he acted 16 years ago... It's messed up if you ask me. Maybe I am overreacting though
@@michaelangst6078 that was my thought. An odd time to attack/disgrace some rando who (hopefully) is disgusted by his young immature behavior.
@@michaelangst6078 Well, he kinda deserves it, doesn't he?
800k views on youtube. It's free money for pokergo. All they have to do is edit some old stuff
It's funny how Jamie Gold went on to win that tournament 😂
That's the kind of behavior that will get you put into the hospital while you're walking to your car, or even worse.
He hasn't done much since 2006. Less than $100,000 cashed in tournaments in the past 15 years according to hendon mob. Maybe he's a cash game guy but that was a horrible call for his tournament life.
I somehow highly doubt that he is killing it in cash games. lol
Doing better than Gold is.
@@byebyebye1334 I will count them both as depressing stories.
@@byebyebye1334 gold has raised more than 400 million in charity since then, he's doing just fine he just doesn't play nearly as much
This kid was trashed at my table in 2006, he was so annoying and was sitting on a huge stack. He ended up busting me out of the tourney on day 3 w KK. He said he got in the tourney by putting his whole weekly paycheck on one hand of blackjack, won, then used the 1k in a 10 person satellite to win his buyin for the main event.
That’s an amazing story if true. Thanks for sharing it
That's pretty gnarly
That’s the amazing part of satellites and tournaments
@BloKaPEW *bested
Hats off to him if story true..at least he didn't borrow it
loved these announcers I remember watching this with my grandpa back when I was in middle school
The hand with Nassif reminds me of just how long ago this was: the old PokerStars logo, the fact that Nassif called it a "three-hundred thousand *dollar* pot," that Molina refers to a set as "trips," and that the occupation "newspaper exec" exists. All relics of a bygone era.
still better then a poker guy in a hoodie with headphones
Imagine calling your stack off in such a massive tournament on an open ended straight draw where you don’t have a card that completes a potential flush in a monotone board
I'm upset no one called him out about what a bad call it was like he did to everyone else.
@@lopsidedcs It would’ve been gold if the guy who busted him said nice call😂😂
@@Dyl3423 brings me happiness knowing Jamie Gold won that year (guy who says see ya in the finals, oh no I wont)
@@lopsidedcs yea lol and Gold got a lot of hate for talking a lot. This guy was miserable tho. It would’ve been so much funnier if the guy with 9s had a flush and 67 was drawing stone dead
Well, he did say he liked to gamble. This definitely wasn't the ideal place to do that.
What you doing unsupervised ! , that was a priceless statement , shame he didnt hear it lol
Man, this kid is going to make it to the end of some tournaments, but not to the end of his 20s.
He’s 37 now.
@@SuperYtc1 And probably up to a massive 130lbs
“Got caught”. No you didn’t. You called off with an open ended on a monochrome board.
He called off with 6 clean outs. His best case scenario was a 2 to 1 dog
Totally insanity
He said "I got cut"
@@tylerspillane9913 no he didn’t bro
This kids mistaking luck for talent
Playing till the end to call off your tournament life w 7 high
What a legend
His parents did a terrific job on raising him.
They're probably his only fans. What would have to be proud of him for?
What u doing calling with the ace 10? Bruh he had the best hand 😂 can't help what comes down
I've never wanted to see someone repeatedly punched in the mouth so badly.
He's 120lbs... it would only take one lol
Worst call I've seen that deep in the Main Event. 🤣
This kid has never been told no in his life. Looked like he was about to cry when he had to leave after taking a penalty.

I'm against late-term abortion, but in Molina's case I'd make an exception

That last hand is so satisfying. He could run his mouth all tourney, but when it was time to swallow his own words, his pride got in the way and cost him thousands.
Err in haste, repent at leisure.
"I'll see you at the end. I mean sorry, no I won't..."

The argument prior to the end was a huge deal in itself. Those 2 players nearly got into a fight.

Bad upbringing

@@wyatth2992 💯🤜
Is that Prahlad Friedman behind the kid in the Jamie Gold clip? 😄
It’s one thing when somebody gets mad after they got unlucky and lost a big pot, but what we’ve seen from this kid is that he insults people as the person is shaking his hand AFTER he just knocked them out of a tournament. That is a whole other level and it’s amazing that nobody ever took a swing at him.
Forgot about this kid, and to be fair it was for the best. What a complete punt on the last hand.
He's cashed about 13K since 2016. I''m just curious about how many times he's woken up in a pool of his own blood. Those arms aren't exactly weapons.
maybe he's a fast runner.
I am silent at the table but I do appreciate the more animated players. It takes all types. 👍👍✌️😎
That's what happens when you eliminate playground bullies...
He is like the draco malfoy of poker😂
I think I would have called the floor for him creating a disturbance and making comments to influence play. Could have at least gotten him a warning. Jamie Gold got a warning for his table talk during the 2007 WSOP. People like this just create needless tension for the whole table and slow down the game.
I think the table talk rules were changed after and because of Jaime Gold, so it makes sense that more strict enforcement is happening now compared to back then.
His clap/fist pump is definitely the most hilarious one ever
This kid and Martin Kabrhel at the same table would be insane😂
this is great bring back the old school poker, no live streams
agree
Yes espn used to work hard putting these productions together was great for the latter part of the 2000s..then they got lazy
Totally 1000 percent agree...can't watch it anymore...joined pokergo just to enJoy the old stuff.
Molina calling anyone an amateur... he is 21! That’s the meaning of amateur!
Kid: What was he doing pushing with J8?
John Nash: Ever heard of Nash Equilibrium?
He's actually right. He called out those other players for making dumb moves.
After he busts out of the tournament he can trade in those $8 sunglasses for some Ray bans…
With the 329k he just win. He might buy a house and a BMW too ay.

"What are you doing unsupervised" Lol at the commentator
When Jamie offered to make the side bet, I wish Eric had said "I would if I thought I'd collect".
Give the kid credit he got people off there game thats what we all strive to do. Thats not my style but he made a bigger check than I ever did at 21
He has only made $88,000 live earnings since this first cash 15+ years ago. He has played quite recently as well according to Hendon Mob.
Not everyone plays tournaments lol
And not everyone becomes a pro either.
So how has his cash game been?
Everyone a youtube poker pro
You hope he got a real job in those 15 years, or hustled enough in cash games to make up the difference for expense cash.
There's at least a half dozen of these guys at your local card room
If Eric takes your attention from your concentration from your HAND... he is winning.
