Calling The Clock: Brunson calls time; Bonomo continues the streak and more

Another round-up of poker news including Doyle Brunson calling time on a legendary poker career, Justin Bonomo keeping the streak alive, and much more.

It’s not often that someone wins a fourth major tournament in a row, takes his annual haul of shillings into the $14.8m mark, and gets relegated to the basement of Calling The Clock, but that happens when a legend appears on the scene.

The name ‘Doyle Brunson‘ hasn’t been synonymous with the World Series of Poker (WSOP) for a very long time – five years in fact. The tens and the deuces shook with excitement as the legend parked up his mobility scooter by the rail for the last shot at a third WSOP Main Event title back in 2013. He would finish in 409th place and leave the Amazon Room to a standing ovation.

I had never seen anything like it.
