Doyle Brunson Won’t be Rooting For Phil Ivey to Win WSOP
Well, I thought I would be pulling for Phil Ivey and Jeff Shulman at the WSOP final table. But when Daniel wanted to bet Ivey over Moon, I had to take Moon who has 5 times the chips of Ivey. It is a must-win bet so probably we won't have action. Sorry Phil, I won't be rooting for you now. Business is business.
The game is going every night at Bobby's Room. It's really great to get up and know there will be somewhere to go. I've been breaking almost even every night and I was worrying that I might be playing bad. I try to analyze the hands I play every night before I go to sleep and I couldn't see that I was doing anything wrong. Finally, I made a nice win last night so maybe there is still some gas in my tank.
I try to slow down, but things just keep piling up on me. I have to do an interview with the Associated Press, meet ESPN for my thoughts on the WSOP final table (what thoughts), go to dinner with the winner of the Vegas Experience from DoylesRoom.com and then the CEO and marketing staff are coming in for all kinds of meetings. The Hall of Fame dinner is also this week and I'm supposed to do the "shuffle up and deal" for the final table, followed by a book signing. My dentist is waiting with some implants that are overdue and my wife tells me that I should move to the Bellagio because I never spend any time with her. Oh well, nobody ever said life was easy.
This Twitter business is getting out of hand. My followers are going up close to 3,000 a day. Don't know why but with 115,000 following, I've starting blocking all the negative and name calling tweeters. I've got enough problems without folks taking their frustrations out on me.
I just finished another interview with a national magazine. They asked me what I attributed my success and longevity to. I had never thought about it but I came up with a pretty good answer. I told them I never let self-made limitations happen. I've always pushed the envelope in everything I do. Actually, that's pretty profound, I surprise myself sometimes!
