2006 World Series of Poker winner - and the biggest WSOP winner ever - Jamie Gold, has been rather quiet ever since that time.  Recently, Gold signed on to play exclusively with the new Merge Network online card room, Aced.com.  Perhaps that was just the remedy needed to bring about a win.  Jamie's team won this week's popular Dream Team Poker Tournament.

That tournament, held over the weekend in Las Vegas, featured 148 teams of three poker players. 

Each player posted the $500 buy-in which created a prize pool of $220,000.

Gold's girlfriend, Ashley Nataupsky, was part of Team Aced.com, and she actually beat out Jamie as part of the final table.  Jamie busted in 9th place. 

"It looks like your girlfriend has outlasted you again, this time in poker," announcer Alex Outhred quipped after Gold's elimination.

Houston Waldie was the other Team Aced.com winner.
