Doyle Brunson shall be the main feature of Poker After Dark's "Godfather Week" and he will be playing two special high-stakes mixed game sessions right inside Bobby's Room at the Bellagio in October 23 and 24.
The octogenarian legend who also goes by the nickname Texas Dolly shall be joined at the all-star table by Dan "Jungleman" Cates, Gus Hansen, and other players who regularly play at Bobby's Room. Expect to see hundreds of thousands of bucks passing hands throughout the night. The participants shall be playing limit mixed games at $1,500/$3,000 blinds.
Fans can watch "Godfather Week"live on the PokerGo app. Every player will have to buy-in for at least $50,000, but most of them will begin with a bigger stack.
