It was the story of this week at the WSOP. Poker legend Doyle Brunson played his first WSOP event since five years and made it straight away to the final table and that at an age of 84 years!
Even Phil Hellmuth was full of praise for Doyle:
Hello Dolly!! The legendary @TexDolly hopped into @WSOP NoLim 2-7 tourney, made it through Day 2 and goes for bracelet number 11 Tues, LIVE only on the @PokerGo App. Can the 84 year old play one WSOP in 5 years and win it? #WhyNot #TheLegend #GoGetEmDolly #TheMan pic.twitter.com/BP5AOSSnNi
