Jaime and his younger brother Matt, also a member of PartyPoker Team Online, famously won $150,000 from Thirst Lounge founder Bill Perkins who challenged the brothers to weigh within one pound of each other within a year. It meant some serious bulking up for Matt who weighed in at 134 pounds, and a hefty weight loss for Jaime who topped the scales at 305 pounds.
