Doyle, what the HELL was that?!??!
 

Who do you think you're playing with? And in a tournament?

How many chips was that all-in, anyone?

Of course, good quote "I love Phil, but he's aggrivatin'"

at least half of that statement was true

I hate to say it, but Doyle, IMVHO, Doyle has played terribly in every TV appearance but 2004 WSOP main event.

Didn't Doyle win Legends of Poker?

Re: Spoilers (Do not read if you like being surprised!)
 

Yup, he came from behind to beat Lee Watkinson...

Re: Doyle, what the HELL was that?!??!
 

He probably figured that he'd take a shot to build a big stack, and if he missed, then he can go make money at the Bellagio...

sad to say, but old, tired, and failing health, he cant feel 100% all the time

Re: Doyle, what the HELL was that?!??!
 

Its just a sad thing to watch doyle lose anytime, like the time PaulBunyan lost to the machine in tree chopping. Its never fun to watch a legend lose. And it especially wasnt fun to see the old man make a thoughtless play like that.

anyone know why he had a crutch?

Re: Doyle, what the HELL was that?!??!
 

He's had a crutch for awhile, and I think it has something to do with helping him walk.

Thoughtless? There are a lot of hands Howard folds there. Doyle just got unlucky to run into a hand. Sure it was a one-dimensional play, but what can you do with that stack?

I've played a few SNGs in my day, and I'm sure there were times where I had 2BB's and pushed in SB when it folds to me, and somehow sucked out and ended up coming back to win. Unfortunately, online you have to look at your cards.

When it gets down to not enough chips to fold, and not enough chips to get anyone else to fold, all you can do is throw 'em in and hope for the best.

How people can come here and say something as bold as Doyle Brunson made a thoughtless play is just beyond me.
