how good is todd brunson?

[Lloyd Crumlish]

after watching all the episodes of high stakes, i have to say i'm probably more impressed by his play than any other player on there. how do you guys ( who are probably a lot more knowledgable about big time players ) view him in comparison to guys like ivey and negranu? how do you think he compares to his father?

doyle said he is the best up and coming player there is...plus the fact that he tore beal a new one helps his cause.

I also recall Michael Konik mentioning on PS 2, that Todd was the biggest cash game winner with a total well over $15,000,000 *don't recall the exact amount but it was obscene*, of course most of it being what he took off Beal.

well from what i thikn BG side on his website...he said todd doesnt always look for the biggest game but that he looks for the best game. Its incredibly smart of him and shows hes not as much a degenerate as the rest

Yeah, as far as i know, he has a lot of side interests(like investments) that he puts a lot of effort into.

He is very good. Read this article from card player.

he continually impresses me. i think he's rather underrated, but i'm not ready to tag him with any particular superlatives at the moment

he seemed like a donkey at the nl cash games with his preflop play, but he has good postflop play.
