Episode 57: The Godfather of Poker-Doyle Brunson

No matter which name you use, Doyle or Texas Dolly or Mr. Brunson, it’s for certain the name, Doyle Brunson is not just synonymous with poker champion but also is synonymous with poker in general. Everybody who has played the game or watched any poker on TV knows the name. Brunson, who has authored a few books, visited Gamblers Book Shop for this podcast and while he was in the store, signed books for dozens of folks who came by solely for that purpose. By the end of the two-hour visit, fully 80 people walked out with autographed copies of The Godfather of Poker, while others opted also for signed copies of the Super Systems and two other titles. Most stayed to listen to Brunson talk about his early days in poker, his view of today's poker scene, the popularity of doylesroom.com and myriad other topics.
