Heh.
Slight oversight, I'm sure, General.
BTW, the reason I just return is I forgot to ask Darryl a question in regards to 'typos'.
Question: How did Doyle Brunson become known in the poker world as "Texas Dolly" & A.K.A "DOLLY"?
Hahahahahaha!

RazzO, Shrink and Doyle,
I've said what I wanted to say here and I don't want to stir up any more shit by carrying on arguing these points. Negative advertising is counter-productive and does no good to me either so I will just sign off here by wishing you good luck on the new site and the new book.

Sorry for the confusion. For what it is worth, I am Doyle Brunson and when I heard what Mr Parsons had posted about me I kind of flew off the handle. I reconized Parsons name and I couldn't understand why he would make such a statement.
There is a poker site called Doylesroom.com that I am involved with. It is open now but the official opening is in two weeks. Everyone is welcome and we hope to be one of the top sites on the internet. My new book, S/S 2 is going to be in print in a month or so. Instead of turning the book over to Simon and Schuster to distribute to the bookstores, I've decided to give it to the players who sign up and play a designated amount of time. My publisher has advance orders for 50,000 books and said he has never seen such a demand for a new book. People are just now finding out what we have known for a long time...Poker is the greatest game on earth.
Thanks for the nice things that most of the posters have said about me. And to answer the questions about my poker games, the highest I ever played was 50,000- 100,000 limit hold em. This very wealthy banker showed up and wanted to play so high, the entire poker room at the Bellagio had to pool our money in order to accomadate him. He only wanted to play head up and he knew we had to form this "corporation" to play him. He loved that! We played him several times with big decisions both ways.
Our normal games are 2,000-4,000 limits. Sometimes, when the right people are in town, we double those stakes. I've won seven figures in those ganes many times and have also lost that much numerous times. I enjoy playing at much lower levels also.
Good luck to everybody. Sorry for any typos Darryl.

Doyle's grand opening is within a few weeks.
All players who sign up will receive a book. I think Doyle will say you have to accumulate x-amount of points. This means at least a deposit of somekind. I already have 2100 AP's (Action Points) and got this in low limits in three nights of play. I think Doyle posted a date on Rx when the book would be out for his players.
THE ANSWER TO "The Dolly Quiz"
This is not EXACTLY how it came down. This is how I have heard it over the years. But it basically happened like this;
There was a roast or a dinner of some kind or a WSOP gathering, in which Jimmy "The Greek" Snyder was invited and/or in attendance in which he recieved a copy of either Doyle's book Super System I
(originally titled; How I Won a Million Dollars Playing Poker), or, it may have been his other book "According to Doyle", also a must read.
When accepting the book he said either on a microphone or out loud, as he looked at the book, and then looked at Doyle, "Er, thank-you..ah (mispronounced) 'Dolly'. The place wents nuts with laughter.
For the longest time all the players and Doyle's friends refered to HIM as DOLLY..as it was printed in articles by reporters who also interpreted it as Dolly.
I think Doyle added "Texas" to it or it was changed to from Texas Doyle.
Maybe someone can clean this version of that legendary night up. But that is how I was told it occured. Seems I read an interview by Nolan Dalla a while back, but it doesn't mention how Jimmy spit out the name that will live forever, which is the bottline on how he got the nickname. Because of Jimmy The Greek Snyder
Keep forgetting to ask Mr. Brunson. Hope this is at least 'ballpark' as to how it came about.
RazzO
ps. it may have not been Super/System 1, if it was, then Jimmy wrote the Foward to a later edition. The edition I purchased at Gamblers Book Club in 1984 has the Foward(maybe the Introduction) written by Jimmy "the greek' Snyder

Doyle,
IMHO it is best to distance yourself from Razzo the clown. While he is 100% in your corner, he can hurt you more than he can ever help you in regards to your internet card room.
Here is a thread where Razzo stated that the security programer at the site he worked for regularly played in the games he was securing. Popular Poker was tarnished from this moment on. Great employee loyalty, putting private business on a public forum.
Heed my warning Doyle.
RazzO sticks foot in mouth and punches his employer in the balls!

Hi there,
Let me beat The General to welcoming you to Rx.
Firstly, Gos had no access to the back office from his home in the US.
We were and Popular Poker still operates behind a firewall to which the servers are here in CR. He was an advisor to the programers as a consultant in security and I had given Gos the wrong title in this thread you provide. We were also in beta test and he played in one or two tournaments (read Paul Phillips post below).
He had no information whatsoever that the other players (the few we had in beta test) didn't have. Just the game client.
I also felt I was honest not to hide the fact that our security consultant was invloved in trying to get all the bugs out. In the end the product failed and we went with another software provider. The software was just to large and could not handle the volume, and Mr. Dalton Wagner terminated his ties with these developers after much patience.
Paul Phillips in the same thread you site puts it in prospective -read more-
About it not being a go after this post you site. Popular Poker had no marketing during this period. It wasn't this post you site for the reason we did not get off the ground, although I'm sure you do want to believe it. Now that Dalton has advertised and has come to use the new software Popular is doing fairly well. Go there during the peek hours today and you will see that they have decent numbers. I don't want to mention any sites that compare looking at small card rooms volume of numbers, but they are doing well. I know you'll say it is because I left... but in actually I was a big help getting the new product we replaced it with off the ground and many players were sad that I left. I left because I sold PokerWorld and did not want to work 9-5.
Secondly, did you hear something I didn't? Am I going to work for Doyle? I just went to play on the site and to get Doyles new book. You're acting here like I am the secuirty advisor or something. It would be nice to work for Doyle on this. I guess you posted this just to make sure I would not. I have a job doing the same thing I did at Popular Poker and they consider me one of the top in my field when it comes to perfecting a poker software from a players point of view.
So..sorry.
I did learn one thing over it all... to be careful how I explain things. I would never give sensitive information about any company I worked for on a newsgroup, etc. We had nothing to hide, nor am I going to get anyone invloved to defend me who had bigger names the Gos who were helping us test. Just making a post. It was made a week or so after I arrived here.
I wish Doyle the best of luck. It's players like him that got me in this business by building the volume of online players based on his name and reputation. If you can look at the big picture. I just saw your buddys post and gave my two cents. I'm sure you did this to warn Doyle..no question about it..not to harm me or my life or anything like that. Very noble
And finally, nice chat.
DoylesRoom.com is my new home court for now, though.
Once again, welcome to RX, at least on behalf of myself
