Please let me be a mod so I can nuke these threads and users from orbit. Beating Doyle in No Limit, I'm sure he'd admit a lot of them would take him down after obsessing over the game online for 3 years. I don't really think he's played that much no limit cash live all that much since the big game is usually capped and mixed. Mixed games, well is he really that difficult to find in Bobbys Room.

one year ago my friend bought me "super system" as a present, because he knew i am a poker player. afterwards we talked a little about Doyle Brunson, and i told him i am not very impressed of his success in the poker world, because he played in his lifetime less hands than i do in 1 year, and because the competition he faced was very weak.

but now i understand that you must honour Doyle firstly for his amazing professionalism, and work ethics. The man is playing 55 years straight at the highest levels vs enyone on a daily basis, and still has the enthusiasm to play poker, and to improve, and to challenge himself. even though he had more money than he can spend 20 years ago, and that is for sure.

but the majority of those "no names" online poker "professionals", have no real work ethics, know nothing about professionalism, no strong personality, and the ability to deal with stress. in the end of the day most of them were just smarter than the avarege kids, who won pretty good sums of money in a short period of time, and just disappeared, they preferred to live a quiet life with a dog and neighbor's daughter on a 9-17 job.

Brian Townsend Is a good example of someone who decided to disappear before his bankroll disappeared, claimg he proved himself after 10000 hands at 200-400 with strong game selection. and he now prefer to sit on his couple of millions in his santa barbara house, living the typical life of a rich Pensioner (even though he was/is very rich without poker, and it is a mistake to talk all day long about your father who lives in Monaco).

But look at Patrik Antonius, who has much more money than 99.99% of the poker world, and still sits every day and feels like he has to prove himself every time he plays.

Doyle is right even when he says that the time of Phil Ivey to get in the hall of fame still not came, even though he proved himself in all forms and sorts of games over a decade.
Because he understands better than anyone what it takes to be there for many decades.

and i am talking about the "most successful" online players, the prynniraids, whitelimes and raptors. They were rats who could not withstand the pressure, and maybe were unsure of themselfs to keep the success (wisely, because they did loss a lot of their poker profits), thought they will be more valueble in other areas of life, like "baseball coaching" (jokes) but they won't. i am sure they will never reach this skill level in any other area.
so for me they are just a transient episodes, and no one will remember them n couple of years, even in the internet world.

One of the most thoughtful post I read in a while here. Congrats!

live.. depends on what game.. I believe he would play a bunch of diff poker games with games people don't play frequently.

I'm not sure how FAME enters the equation of calculating chances vs. big time players.
09-03-2009 , 04:21 PM
He is basicly 80, I am youngish, I could beat him up, I guess the number is around 4Billion.
09-03-2009 , 06:05 PM
I fit the bill and could
09-03-2009 , 06:13 PM
The keyword to this whole thing is in the OP's title. He said "consistently". The only answer is nobody, no way, and never gonna happen. He's old, not ******ed, what makes any of you think he would allow himself to be beat consistently? LOL Back to the reading comprehension tutors. How can you possibly beat him when you can't can't even read, and understand the book he wrote. LOL Good luck children.

A few more years might do the trick.

LOL Okay, maybe. But, that old man is still pretty sharp. He's not what he was by no means. I just hope I can live to his age and still be able to function. Threads like this are proof to the legend he is, everybody still dreams about beating Doyle.
