The man himself, Mr. Doyle Brunson is calling out wonderboy Patrik Antonius in his latest blog.
Its not long since Patrik told Cardplayer he would play Doyle for any amount heads-up.
Doyle is writing the following in his blog:
“I think he made a mistake when he said, “I’ll play him any game for any amount.” I’ve got 7-10 different games, all of which I’ve played in Las Vegas casinos for high stakes, that I’m willing to commit to for at least a seven figure match. There will be no animosity between us; we are both pros who love a good gamble. It will be interesting if he accepts and I’m sure we will both have a great time playing. “

“Then, all hell broke loose. Literally. Holding onto a perilous chip lead, Thornburg lost self-control and began jamming chips into the pot with reckless abandon. Warned by tournament officials (repeatedly) to stack his chips properly and obey the rules, Thornburg crossed the final demarcation of everyone’s patience when he shoved half of his stack into the pot and then later announced, “all in.” Fed up with the annoying and confusing antics, officials announced Thornburg’s immediate disqualification. Lesley Thornburg, a general contractor from Richmond, Va., earned $19,026 in prize money.”
Shit has really hit the fan over at NWP. We cant even begin to describe all the chaos but we can mention that it involves an inbread named Sue and a war with twoplustwo.
