Brunson was born on August 10, 1933 in Longworth, Fisher County of Texas - a dirt poor, rural town smack in the middle of The Lone Star State. The town had a population of less than 100, and almost all were farmers. His family lived on a cotton farm with no electricity or plumbing. Brunson was the youngest of 3 children and had a textbook Texas childhood, although often feeling like a bit of an outsider. He was an active kid, and shaped into a natural athlete who received a spot on the All-State basketball team and also dominated in the statewide track community. This is especially impressive considering that Brunson never actually had a track coach or knew anything about running track. According to a 2018 podcast interview he did with ‘Poker Stories’, after baseball practice, Brunson would just go to the track, start running and never let anyone get past him. These performances led to him being offered college scholarships for both basketball and track. Doyle Brunson was well on his way to realizing his lifelong dream of playing in the NBA. The then-Minneapolis Lakers wanted to sign him, but his basketball career would end before it really began. One faithful day, while working at a local gypsum factory, Brunson was in an accident that shattered his leg. His leg never fully healed, putting an abrupt end to his athletic dreams. To this day, he’s easily spotted around the poker table by the crutch standing nearby. But, as Doyle Brunson would prove again and again, no matter what you’re dealt in life, anything can be turned into a winning hand. PICKING UP POKER Doyle Brunson had always been an observer of people. Perhaps because he grew up feeling like an outsider looking in. Barely able to move around after shattering his leg, he would often just sit and watch people - which would only advance his skills of reading faces. Something that would become his ace in the hole later in life. The young Brunson had always enjoyed poker, but played a lot more after his injury. So when his co-workers invited him to play with them after his first day, he went along. They played a game of seven-card stud, and Brunson absolutely cleaned up, winning more than a month’s salary that night. ADVENTURES OF THE TEXAS ROUNDERS After the birth of his daughter, Doyle Brunson went to Fort Worth, Texas, where he and his friend Dwayne Hamilton would play in illegal games. But even Fort Worth soon proved too small for their appetite, and so they took to the road. They met fellow poker players Amarillo Slim and Sailor Roberts and formed what became known as the legendary ‘Texas Rounders’. A team of truly elite poker players who completely cleaned Texas dry playing high-stakes poker in the 1950’s and 60’s. These illegal games were often run by criminals. Brunson remembers staring down the barrel of a gun more than a few times. WHY IS DOYLE BRUNSON CALLED “THE TEXAS DOLLY”? Back in 1973, Doyle Brunson had a well-established relationship with a guy called Jimmy “The Greek” Snyder. Jimmy would later become famous for his part in CBS “The NFL Today” throughout the 1980s, but in 1973 he was still just a gambling columnist for the Las Vegas Sun. Jimmy was covering the WSOP and therefore frequently mentioned Doyle Brunson’s accomplishments. But at the time, gambling was still frowned upon in Texas, and so Doyle asked Snyder to use an alias - and so he would call him “Texas Doyle”. A member of the Associated Press picked up on an exchange between Brunson and Snyder, but misunderstood the nickname to be “Texas Dolly”, which then made the report and has since then gone down in history as a legendary poker nickname. 🪦 UPDATE MAY 15 2023 Doyle Brunson died on May 14, 2023 in Las Vegas at the age of 89. As our community mourns the loss of the Godfather, we are reminded that legacy lives on forever. In the poker world, a legend has passed, Doyle Brunson's legacy destined to last, His teachings and spirit will forever cast. RIP, Texas Dolly.
