On Sunday, May 14, in Las Vegas, legendary poker player Doyle Brunson passed away at the age of 89. He is considered the godfather of the game.
“Texas Dolly”, as he was nicknamed, won 10 World Series of Poker tournaments, including the Main Event in 1976 and 1977. That is second only to Phil Hellmuth’s 16 WSOP wins.
Brunson’s 1978 book “Super System”, which revealed strategies that had been known only to professionals before its publication, is considered the Bible of poker.
I don’t play poker,but it’s a shame (((
Same here. He was a living legend.
PS. I’ve never understood that game, to me it fully implements the American idea – the golden calf( the greed for profit through deceit) 😎
102 is legendary )))Rest in peace Doyle …
