Re: Brian Townsend interviews Doyle Brunson
It's interesting how he admits that Chip Reese always owns him. I was reading Brunson's 'My 50 most memorable hands' at Borders today. There was one hand there vs Chip Reese. I don't think I remember the exact cards on the flop but i'm pretty sure there where no face cards. This was a hand from the early 70's.
It was something like Doyle opens A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] and Reese calls behind. (NL HE) FLOP: 9 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 2 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Doyle checks, Chip Checks. TURN: 9 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 2 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Doyle Checks, Chip bets, Doyle check/raises, Chip calls. RIVER: 9 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 2 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 3 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Doyle shoves a significant amount and Chip calls with 2 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. After Doyle sees the hand Chip tells him that he put Doyle on a busted flush. A few hands go by and Doyle asks Chip what he would have done if the river was a diamond giving Chip a flush. And Chip replies "I would have folded."

Re: Brian Townsend interviews Doyle Brunson
This is a great way of interviewing.
It's pretty rare that the interviewer exactly understands what the interviewee is telling (whether it's poker, sports, music or any other special profession), so it's refreshing to see this format and the quality is quite high.

Re: Brian Townsend interviews Doyle Brunson
[ QUOTE ]
good read. also interestingly he busted to ZeeJustin in WSOPe, and he said he viewed the 'kid' as a 'liberal player' who played 510 os very fast and aggressive earlier in the tourney. so, doyle thought zj would be a good spot for a double up. im not one to question sir doyle, but this must of been a bad read on his part. zj is a very talented thinking player. [/ QUOTE ]  I guess it would have looked like this

[/ QUOTE ] This must be one of Chip's memorable hands, because Doyle always talks about the call he made on the river w/ J high when both players (Jack Strauss?) missed their straight draw

Re: Brian Townsend interviews Doyle Brunson
[ QUOTE ]
I disagree... when a great player sees another player who is unknown fire a triple barrel bluff or whatever with T5o, the VAST majority of the time that unknown is simply a terrible aggro donk. [/ QUOTE ] He didnt specify Zee was a donk - in fact Zee going deep in the WSOP horse event likely meant he had a bit of prior info on him. He basically said that Zee was playing out in the margins and would take him on to try and get a quick double. I could be wrong, but when i read it, i didnt read it as "the random kid was an over aggro fish".
