Legendary Editor and all around poker god Michael Caselli has offered to help me launch The Jamie Gold Foundation in London at Poker in the Park. I am truly honored to be a part of what I have missed the last 2 years and though we are only 2 weeks away I know my friends will come together to make this happen. Peter Eastgate is going to co host it with me, Michael Greco my closest friend out there is helping us get celebrities, Tony Jones and Poker Icons are all pitching in to make sure it is a great event. We are lucky to have donated prizes worth the price of admission 500 pounds, and really cool auction items. The Casino Empire (where the WSOPE takes place) has donated the VIP room and staff and it seems this will be a great way to launch. PokerStars has even put up a main event seat to EPT London as a prize…we are very well supported. August 13th, Thursday, I will speak at Poker in the Park in the square there, as will Peter and Michael and many others (www.pokerinthepark.com). Bluff is really going all out to make this even bigger and better than last year and it’s free to attend the seminars. Having the current WSOP champion is an honor and I know how lucky we are to have all the support we do. Melissa at Lyceum is working like mad to get the word out, she booked us on Sky TV and has 4 different television outlets covering the event not to mention the red carpet work and all the magazine and print coverage, it’s not an easy thing to do. This is a great way to announce the foundation to the world. Now if we can get our website up and running we will really be official. We have a great team. It’s alot more work than I had ever thought. The last 70 charity events seem like a walk in the park compared to the first official one for our foundation to support all the causes we believe in the most. The pressure just doesn’t compare, but I need to feel I am really affecting positive change in the world so this is most important and rewarding. I look forward to sharing more soon.
