Interesting thing about the dead is that people are so unwilling to be anything but positive. Over the years I heard murmurs of things that were not positive. Nothing specific I'd share. He came up in a different time. He ran with Amarillo Slim at one point but he was always ready to advertise being a Christian. Yet his "running mate" was charged with molesting his grand-daughter. Sleazy AF.
A lot of rose-tinted glasses looking back.
I am not beginning to suggest Doyle did things that Slim did but I am suggesting he was probably not near the classy guy he portrayed. And regardless he will always be one of the top legends in poker.
thanks for clearing that up hoser.
Mickeycrimm, take the hint and apologize.Quote:

I imagine it's a combination of tons of DMs/texts/emails which are annoying him, basically asking the same question, and other people bothering his sister Pam, who had her time associating with the poker community in the 2000s.Quote:

It's not as outrageous as it can seem on the surface.Quote:

I can't explain it, but it was like I knew it was going to happen this way, and it would be over after that hand.
No need to prove my point druffQuote:

Yeah, I guess. Everyone reacts different. I guess my point is if you don't want attention you don't go in front of 20,000 people in a hockey arena, in which 19,985 you don't know and blow a horn about your Dad next to a DJ. You are always going to get attention that way, even if you don't want the attention you created it.Quote:

Those who talked negatively about this important passage from Doyle Brunson book have revealed to all
They don’t have it
Do you understand?
I think Doyle was right. When the granddaughter got older she said none of it was true.Quote:

I think Todd's reaction may have been a little over the top.
Dolly once said Todd and Sonatine were the only ones here who would've been able to survive/thrive as Texas road gamblers.
Go on and stalk men but being a pedo defender is probably a bad idea.Quote:

Harrison Wilder took commend in heads-up play against Thomas Jamieson. Wilder raised from the button and Jamieson called. The flop came out {4-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{7-Diamonds}. Jamieson checked, Wilder bet, Jamieson raised, and Wilder called. The turn ran out the {8-Hearts}. Jamieson checked again, Wilder bet, Jamieson raised, and Wilder called.
The river came the {a-Spades} and this time Jamieson led out and Wilder called.
Jamieson flipped up {6-Spades}{8-Diamonds} and Wilder showed the winner, {a-Hearts}{7-Clubs}.
I just don't think Slim was a pedo. That's not defending pedo's. If I wanted to defend pedo's I would put in a good word for you and sonatine.Quote:

Slim was a sleazy dude. He was one of those slyly proud of hustling sorta guys. He did little to hide it. He might have been ok but the chances of him being a super sleazebag underneath it all are definitely far higher than the average Joe. I don't think little girls go around falsely accusing people very often unless there is an adult trying to set someone up. (or some weird leading questioning going on)Quote:

The grand daughter was 12 years old at the time but she later said that all the allegations were categorically false, that it was the adults that went beserk on Slim.Quote:

All it takes is the allegation to ruin someone's reputation. Ask Bret Kavanaugh. It happened to Slim who, because of his reputation as a hustler, really didn't have the wherewithal to fight back.
Slim's longsuit was hustling hustlers. All good cons are based on greed. Slim knew how to fleece greedy hustlers.
I met Sen. John Ensign on a flight from Las Vegas to Reno. We had a long and very cordial conversation all the way to Reno and shook hands when we went different ways. He was very friendly.Quote:

But he was a scumbag piece of shit. That's how impressed I am with celebrities.
It's time for you to put up your evidence, soyboy. And don't tell me you heard it on the MSM "so it must be true."
He was indicted on multiple counts for molesting his own granddaughter and pled no contest.Quote:

You think he's innocent because Doyle Brunson said so.
There were not plural charges. Sexual assault is a felony, soyboy. Slim pled no contest to a misdemeanor. He was offered a single misdemeanor so prosecutors could save face. Slim fell on the sword to not put his family thru a trial. Could you imagine the headlines every day in the news?Quote:

If Slim were a pedo he would have exposed himself long before he reached his 70's. He got a bad rap. Get a clue.
You're running defense for a pedophile who molested his 12 year old grandchild because you think he 'got a bad rap'. His family brought charges forward.Quote:

Hard to get lower than that.

how about he spends hours every day defending a pedophile who molested his 12 year old grandchild in a memorial thread for doyle brunson?
after dox'ing the location of doyle's grave?
Doxxing the location of Doyle's burial? You stupid fuck. The Texas obituaries will all tell where he is to be buried. Damn, you're dumb, soyboy. Doyle publicly told where he will be buried years ago and said he already had a tombstone in place.Quote:

Too bad the only hustling for our dear Mick involves pocketing danishes at the breakfast buffet and grabbing a quick charge at the public library.
In the words of Druff's friend, 'real pedophile behavior here'.
How about defending a president that showered with his daughter. Team pedo.
A girl I knew in poker who was around my age told me that she thought I looked like Harrison Wilder. I hadn't seen him before, and had only heard his name in that he had won a bracelet. I googled him, and told her that I didn't agree.Quote:

Also keep in mind that this was over 10 years ago, when I looked somewhat different than today.
The girl then said, "Oh, I didn't mean it as an insult at all. I actually think he's fairly good looking."
Didn't realize until now that he was the one who beat you heads up. I knew you finished 2nd in a limit event, but never looked up who the winner was.
