"Octogenarian" huh? They couldnt say he is just old? He has quit playing tournaments, but we have seen he si still chasing ring games. So i dont see why all the fuss, and the decision to quit the tournaments. Maybe they are more tiring for his age, since you can quit a ring game whenever you like.

It's great that this Doyle Brunson loves poker too much at an advanced age. To be octogenary and have the ambition to play poker whenever he has the opportunity is very good. He does not have many hobbies and playing with other well-known names in poker industry. Unfortunately, the Bobby Room has remained without the original because was dismissed. For fans of Doyle Brunson should look at these special sessions because they will not see much live poker in the future with their idol.

Doyle Brunson when he hears about poker, he feels just like Al Pacino with his much younger girlfriend. The happiness of relaxing playing poker is for him a way of life. He played poker for decades and it's very hard to quit poker for the rest of his life. This old man is an poker monument. Doyle Brunson deserves much respect for his effort.

I think Doyle Brunson is a person who did not abuse of his life. He knew how to eat, what to eat, drink and he did not enjoy other miseries, especially drugs. Because of this he has reached a beautiful age and he can move very good with pleasure when playing poker. He loves this game too much.

I dont know about the rest, but when it comes to how to eat and what to eat, i doubt it. You just need a glance to understand he is overweight. Is this the way that people look, when they know how and what to eat? So how do you call the ones that are not overweight? Starving?

This thing it does not matter too much. You can be overweight, even if you eat well ( without poison ). You think you'll get octogenary with chemicals? and to be in good health including mentally? I'm sure you can not to do this. Stomach if it is fed properly without irritating food, he offers health for whole body.
