Legendary poker player Doyle Brunson<\/a>, who at one time received the corporate nickname "Texas Dolly", is best known for being a professional poker player even before the game appeared in Vegas. He even had a whole team of players who later also became big poker stars: Amarillo Slim, Crandell Addington (Dandy), and even Sailor Roberts.<\/p>\n\n\n

This is why Brunson sometimes had to deal with the police, but it never ended with anything more than just ordinary fines, which, of course, did not stop the players from their favorite pastime.

At the same time, the motives of the person who made such a statement are still unknown. It is possible that it could just be one of those people who saw Brunson on his signature television show. Undoubtedly, among them there could be such a person who decided to joke evil by filing a false statement to the police. In any case, Doyle Brunson, who has already turned 85, is not very worried about this: on his Twitter he continues to leave notes on abstract topics, asking, for example, his fans about those shows that he should watch on TV in the evening. ...
