Doyle Brunson Interview with Bernard Lee

Doyle Brunson is the living legend of poker and joins Bernard Lee for an interview which was filmed a few days ago during the World Series of Poker. Brunson is an old school icon who played in the days when players had guns in their pockets and the law after them at every turn. At 74 years old, the player nicknamed “Texas Dolly” is still one of the best players in the game and shows no signs of slowing down.

In this interview with Bernard Lee, Brunson talks about how this year’s World Series of Poker has gone. He also talks about the famous card protector, which was won by Howard Lederer. Brunson admits that he purchase the card protector back from Lederer for the sum of $8,500. Why is it so sentimental? Well, Brunson also talks about that too during the interview. He also talks about his children, specifically Todd and Pam, who are both accomplished poker pros. Pam Brunson has routinely outlasted her brother and father in the World Series of Poker Main Event for years and years, which Doyle Brunson comments about.

Doyle Brunson was the first player to win a $1,000,000 tournament and gained popularity after he won the Main Event and wrote the iconic best selling book, “Super/System” which many account as the way they learned to play poker. He has 11 bracelets to his name at the WSOP, not to mention many other titles, including ones from the World Poker Tour.

Bernard Lee is a correspondent for Poker News Daily and can also be found on ESPN’s Inside Deal on ESPN.com.
