Before we get started with this poker pro’s net worth, let us see what Brunson’s humble beginnings were like. The poker dynamo was born in Longworth, Texas on 10th August 1933. It is widely reported how ‘Texas Dolly’ has played World Series of Poker (WSOP) since its launch in 1970. And boy we are utterly impressed! Brunson is said to have a poker career spanning over 50 years and still plays poker from time to time. The World Poker Tour (WPT) Ambassador was inducted into the Poker Hall of Fame (PHOF) in 1988 when he was 54 years of age.

This player’s ties with Phil Ivey and Johnny Chan when it comes to crediting 10 World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelets to their name. The 10 WSOP bracelets came from a variety of tournaments and not just Texas Hold’em. Brunson has won WSOP bracelets from different poker games. He has won WSOP bracelets from events like Deuce to Seven Draw, Seven-Card Stud Split, Mixed Doubles, Seven-Card Razz, and H.O.R.S.E. Can a player have more poker variety on his resume? Maybe or maybe not! Don’t forget the two WSOP Main Events Brunson won back-to-back in 1976 and 1977.

Doyle Brunson’s Super System

The poker maestro also authored books like Super System and Super System 2. These books come with a tagline of ‘A course in power poker’ which we will never debate given Brunson’s longevity in playing poker professionally and his corresponding poker winnings. He rubbed shoulders with the who’s who in poker and made money by beating the sharpest minds in the circuit.

Doyle Brunson Hand

Yes, we know it is T2, but are you aware of the story behind this poker hand being called the Doyle Brunson Hand? For the unversed, Brunson played a hand against heads-up rival Jesse Alto in the WSOP Main Event in 1976. The WPT Ambassador had T2s and his opponent was playing with AJ.

The flop brought A J T and Alto hit two pairs. Brunson exploited his rival’s weakness of being a relatively new player in the field and went all-in with just one pair. But poker gods blessed the talented pro with runner-runner twos which gave him the winning full house. This is what led to the T2 starting hand being called the Doyle Brunson Hand. We couldn’t agree more on this accolade being given to the Las Vegas resident.
