The end may be approaching
say what you will about the man, he had an incredible run.
Rip Doyle
he said life expectancy in his family is 90/100. dude has beaten it all.
Doyle’s is good as long as he still has a chip and a chair.
What a life he had. I am sure he will have no regrets when the time comes.
Perhaps the most normal famous poker player of several generations. Married for over 50 years to the same woman. Raised a family.
That prolly had something to do with his incredible run. Those that went from dorm room to full time poker had no life skills or support group and generally crashed.
Harolobob is the only other guy of that echelon that comes to mind. Like Doyle, he didn’t became a tard or broke or both.
Phil Hellmuth makes the list too in fairness. I just found his act annoying. Would never have a beer with him, for instance.
Harolobob & Hellmuth are distant seconds though. Nobody like Doyle will ever come along again.
Wish I saved my original Super System book.
RIP in peace
My favorite thing about Doyle Brunson was that he never cheated at cards and still dominated. I also respect him as a father. Son Todd is a chip off the old block and daughter Pamela is a wonderful little girl.
The greatest scam the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world Doyle was straight edge
