Im happy to confirm that Doyle has arrived in Dublin and that Todd has also come along for the spin.

Doyle will be doing a book signing on Wednesday night 19th at 9.30pm in Citywest.

He has 500 copies of his books which he will be giving away so turn up on the night if you would like a photograph, signed book etc.

Ten Gallon hats are part of our normal office attire.

Interesting name, quite a stupid post.

Unlike other book signings where the deal is "I'll chat and sign your book as long as you buy the book" this one is different.

There is no charge for the meet and great AND the books are free.

I'm hoping to dust of either my indiana jones hat or my aussie kangaroo leather hat and come along and get a pick of me and the legend.

Blip

Just back from Citywest with my Doyle Brunson's Super System 2, signed by the man himself and Todd too.

What a freebie, WP PPP, Cheers.

Doyle signed books for almost 2 hours straight, what a legend of a man! Sound as a pound too. I was in shock at the handful of people in line who asked me 'who is that?', 'what books are they' and the like - most of whom are playing tomorrow, dead money I imagine.

Great to meet the man himself and Todd too of course and the signed copy of Super System 2 was a fantastic freebie. WP Doyle, a true Legend

You are joking?!!!

So disappointed to have missed him....

I played in the Freeroll tonight with a guy who won the opportunity to have breakfast with the guy and he was more nervous about that, than playing with his free ticket in the IO!

He was real sound! I was 5th in line when it started, and i to was shocked at how many people were asking who he was, and referring to super system as 'the big book'. The two guys behind me even said that as soon as they got home they would be putting theirs up on ebay :eek:

LMFAO...that was me, But I was joking I was about 6th/7th in the que

No way this baby is going on e-bay

What a guy, ole Doyler 75 years old signing books in citywest

Speaking of guys who didn't know who he was, Surrinder Sunar stopped myself and a mate outside in the smoking area and asked us what we were carrying I was like "eh it's a book by Doyle Brunson"

He says, "hmmmm never heard of it, how much is he charging"

This is when I should have flattened Surrindar with a tallaght loaf:D, but decided to just let him look for himself:p

Nice things to say about the Irish and the country itself



"I got to Ireland and it was pretty much the way I remember it. This is my 3rd trip here instead of my second. Louise reminded me that we came in 1982 to the second Irish Open and she was right. I didn't come so much for the tournament as for the cash games. Chip Reese, Walter Cintula and myself flew in at Terry Roger's request to play some large cash games. I can still remember playing for 36 hours, going home and sleeping for 10 hours, coming back and the same people were still playing. I sat down and when another player tried to join us a jeweler named Melvin said "oh, no fresh players can join us, we are too tired." They didn't even notice I had slept and come back. Great spot, huh? Don't worry, they broke me.

Then we came back in 1987. Todd was 18 years old and led the tournament the first 3 days and the Irish press called him "The Dark Horse" which has been his nickname ever since. The Irish economy is just booming. It makes me sick that the dollar has fallen so much that everywhere I go our money isn't worth as much as the country I'm visiting. The other thing I've noticed is how short the Irish people are. They must be at least 2 inches shorter than Americans. Also, I don't believe I've seen one Irish person to be what I would call fat. Gotta go to a book signing. More later. -DB

Got me book too and fair play to the brunsons, both smiling away through what must be torture sitting there and signing books! Sound lads.

Got stopped by a few people asking me how much they were charging for the book. When i told them it was free you wanna see the look of amazement on their faces. Was funny watching them sprint off into the queue!
