The legendary Doyle Brunson told to Pokernewsdaily that this year’s WSOP has been a sheer nightmare for him…  

Brunson played eight tournaments and made the second day six times but couldn’t cash at all. He says that the 2nd and 3rd days of the WSOP tournaments are always good fun - and being eliminated on the second day without any cashes is the worst possible fate since getting through the first day is the most difficult part.  

Numerous visits at the dentist hardly eased his WSOP, and Doyle admits the whole thing got on his nerves. “Those gum treatments were supposed to be over in 4-5 months, but this has taken already eight months. I’ve got seven implants in my mouth which feels like getting on a carousel and not being able to get off.”

According to Brunson, Dan “djk123″ Kelly who secured his place in The Brunson 10 by winning the $25k NLHE 6-max is a nice young man - even though he looks like 14-year old boy. Handpicking the entourage of young players, Brunson tells there has been a long list of candidates in the selection process which is why he organized a race between the most promising players.

After Dan Kelly joined the team, seven places of The Brunson 10 are now taken. These young players are: Zachary Clark, Amit Makhija, Dani Stern, Chris Moorman, Alex Kamberis, Steve Gross and Dan Kelly.
