:lol
Love how Doyle jerked off these young pros to make them feel overconfident, and then probably took their money.
That old man had a lot more moves than people realize.
I remember Doyle saying he had to change up his game after he published the book because to many people then knew how he played. But his game in the 21st century was not antiquated by any means. On High Stakes Poker thru 6 seasons he placed 3rd out of 70 of the biggest names in poker for money won. You'll be surprised at the big names on the bottom of the list. Negreanu was the biggest loser dumping over 2 mill on HSP:

You didn't see Doyle taking forever to act on his hands either, like so many of the young pros do. On one episode, while sitting there waiting for another slowpoke to act, Doyle said "What do you guys think about?" LOLQuote:

Todd Brunson is much more likely to be weirded out by some comp whoring slot hobo doing the above.
How many active poker players have you done this for?
This thread is about paying respects to the Grandfather of Poker, Doyle Brunson, not some dumbass vendetta you have with Crimm.
Also, I'm increasingly starting to believe that Mickey Crimm has found religion in his old age. It's not unusual for religion to replace the bottle.
What I think is Mickey is interested in the burial site because, as a seasoned gambler with respect for the greats, he might want to visit one day and say a few words to Doyle---who was also Christian. I suspect that a part of Mickey believes that Doyle might look down upon him and hear what he has to say.
I could be wrong. Either way, quit being a fucking asshole.

Id prefer he be a much bigger asshole, because the last thing on earth this shithole is about is being respectful.
Read the room chief.
Read this: When I am an asshole, I don't do it for the sake of being an asshole; I do it to help further drive home a point I'm making.Quote:

No one gives a shit about your boomer aesthetics. You have 200'ish posts and have been here for 3 years. You're brand is nonexistent and youve contributed virtually nothing here and youre lecturing people who have been part of this community since the mid 2000's? This isnt going to go how you hoped.
And sticking up for an alcoholic grifter parasite with early onset dementia endears you to no one. Its boring.
You're not interesting or clever. Your schtick is being a voice of reason in a place a few people post in because they find voices of reason banal, and the rest post in because they are ultra right wing wanna be domestic terrorists.
Youre neither the first nor last to clutch pearls at the behavior here. Youre neither the first nor last to desperately try to engender yourself to career scumbags and larcenous vermin, without whom Druff's audience would be his therapist.
Its boring.
Youre boring.
You dont have to care if youre boring, but stop telling interesting people to tone themselves down because you dont get the joke.
Funny. While there are plenty of reasons to dislike Mickey there has never been a reason to call him a grifter or parasite.
Sonatine is a walking LLM. He strings together words without knowing what they mean but hey it sounds good.
Anyway, all shit aside you fellas putting way too much effort into trying to convince people that mickey is "stalking" a graveyard via google maps. Yes, it was a bit odd but not worthy of commentary.
'Odd,' things often become less odd when you use logic and reason to try to deduce a reason for those things.
Lol at a brand. Lol at thinking for even a second that ANYTHING online is relevant.
I guess when you never get out into real life well fake life is all you know.
Don't tell a man with 32k+ posts that his online poker forum brand isn't relevant.Quote:

It has to be exhilarating telling people how smart they are when you are peeling off thousands every session. "Back in the day, nobody could beat you in West Texas". Scooping chips after chips.Quote:

Doyle posted one more time from the grave, and his last words were taking a shot at Mike Matusow's markup.

The only last memory I have about Doyle was this:
Around 2007 or so, he won a tournament on TV, it was hosted by the guy who died a couple years ago, he won like a million bucks or so.
Shortly thereafter, Barry Grienstein posted a blog ranking the best poker players in the world. It was an odd blog because he ranked himself near the top, and said Doyle was fading due to his age. This was right before Barry went broke.
Funny thing was there was an online interview with Doyle right before all that happened. Doyle kept referring to Barry as Barry GreenSTEEN. He kept saying Barry GreenSTEEN. I assume there was bad blood between the two because obviously it was an insult.
Anyway, RIP what a life.

Laughed at his quip about Seaver he would have fit in nicely in this forum. Luckily didn't have dementia. My mom and dad did though my dad only had it towards the end.. Hope my faculties are in tact at that age. I just pray I don't wind up in a nursing home.
It's scenes like this which reminds me why I hate live sporting events. The last live sporting event I went to was a Dallas Mavericks game before Covid. I toughed it out until the 3rd quarter and said I was not feeling well and went to my hotel and watched the end of the game at the lobby bar. I just found myself getting very angry watching people have a good time, cheering every shot. STFU and sit down, its a fucking basketball game.Quote:
