We've all read the book. The Bible of poker. The one, the only Super/System. We've watched him win WPT titles and his record-setting tenth WSOP bracelet. We've heard the stories that filter out of the Bellagio's "big game" where he holds court nearly every night of the week and we've all stopped and wondered at some point in our own poker lives what it must have been like to be a shotgun-carrying road gambler in 1950's Texas.

Doyle Brunson did it all, lived to tell about it, and is still perhaps the world's best all-around poker player at the age of 73. It only makes sense that he would venture into the online game, where his namesake site Doyle's Room is quickly turning into a significant force in the internet poker world. And true to his "don't mess with Texas" philosophy, Doyle's Room has vowed to continue serving their U.S. customers in the wake of the current legislative battle over the legality of online poker. Your money is 100% safe at Doyle's Room- Brunson personally guarantees it.

In addition to Doyle Brunson, his WSOP braceletwinning son Todd, and"Mad Genius" Mike Caro, Doyle's Room boasts an impressive lineup of pro endorsers. "Team Brunson" includes WSOP champions Hoyt Corkins, Cyndy Violette, Max Pescatori,"Captain" Tom Franklin and Dewey Tomko along with young up-and-coming pros Jennifer "Jennicide" Leigh and Marco Traniello. A rotating cast of these pros along with celebrity special guests like Nicky Hilton and Pamela Anderson all have targets on their backs in Doyle's Room's signature weekly tournament "The Bounty," which runs on Thursday evenings. Knock any bounty player out of the tournament and you'll win an instant $500. Knock out two"key" bounties (usuallly Doyle, Todd, and Caro) and pocket $15,000. Knock out all three and you're rolling in fifty grand. Talk about an insta-bankroll.

Doyle's Room also runs a plethora of satellites to major events on the live tournament circuit. Though they're not yet available at most online poker sites, satellites for the 2007 WSOP Main Event are already running at Doyle's Room with buy-ins as low as a dollar. $1! Additionally, $15,000"Winners Choice" packages are up for grabs via $220 super satellites. This package is good for a buy-in and travel expenses to any WPT event remaining on the Season 5 schedule, including Foxwoods, Bellagio, Niagra, Bay 101 Shooting Star, and the L.A. Poker Classic. SNG and MTT satellite feeders into the $220 supers start at only a $3 buy-in.

Doyle's Room also boasts an excellent variety of cash game options. Limit and nolimit hold'em, limit and potlimit Omaha and Omaha hilo are spread at limits from $0.02-$0.04 to $150-$300. In addition to traditional limit stud and stud hi-lo, the unusual and hard-to-find 1/2 pot limit varieties of both these games are available at the $0.10-$0.20 to $50-$100 levels. Doyle's Room is also the only online poker room to spread Badugi. That's right, Badugi. It's a totally bizarre but hopelessly addicting 4-card form of triple draw lowball, where the best hand is an A-2-3-4 of all different suits. Badugi was all over the high limit mixed cash games at this year's WSOP and now anyone can give it a whirl online.

For a beginning player just building a bankroll, singletable SNGs are a great way to do it. While offering the typical $5-$1000 buy-in SNGs you'll find anywhere online, Doyle's Room goes a step further and spreads micro-limit SNGs with buyins from $0.10-$3. Full ring, shorthanded (6 max), headsup, speed, and turbo varieties are all spread 24/7.

Promotions and bonuses for winning consecutive SNGs are also frequently available.

Another great feature of the Doyle's Room interface are the buddy lists. Not only can players keep track of when their friends are online, but they're also incredibly useful for"tagging the fish." Want to remember that guy who dumped off $1000 in fifteen minutes of $10-$20 LHE? Stick him on your buddy list. Dying for a stud lesson from Cyndy Violette?

Put her on there too, and you'll know whenever she's playing. Doyle's Room is also one of the few online rooms currently running a bad beat jackpot. Lose with aces full of kings or better in any hold'em cash game and $1500 is instantly yours. It sure makes losing that 20-1 favorite on the river just a little less painful.

Whether you're a rank beginner, a serious amateur ready to do battle with poker's greatest living legend, or just want to see what the heck Badugi is all about, Doyle's Room is a perfect place to play. Personally, I'll be gunning for that other "Nicky" (the Hilton variety) next Thursday night. Care to join me?
