Default Doyle\'s a scumbag?

I've heard a few respected posters say some negative things about Doyle Brunson lately. Knowing just about nothing about him other than what I've seen on TV and reading about his history with other Texas players, why is that the case? PM is cool if people would rather not publicly say, but I can't seem to find anything different from what I've read about other poker "celebrities."

Doyle Brunson is infallible. I thought everyone knew.

Which players? He seems to be a pretty nice guy.

Russ Georgiev doesn't count.

I searched for his name in this forum, and all I got was a bunch of people wondering how old he was.

You stole my answer.

I think I recall Clark once said there is (implicit) collusion in the Big Game to such a degree that no non-regulars can win.

Did anyone that is commenting on Brunson ever read ace on the river? If had you would have read how Barry Greenstein felt the same exact way you guys did and wouldnt go to vegas at all for that reason also the rumor of chip and Brunson cheating has been going on for years, but its obviously not true. Barry plays in the big game now, and if he plays there then its obviously safe as he has no ties whatsoever to vegas, he doesnt live in vegas and only goes there occasionally to play. He is not a regular and if there was any proof to what you guys said, he would get cleaned out, but if you read his book you will see that he does rather well in it. Think about that before screaming collusion.
