Doyle Brunson Announces Return to WSOP 2021 After Three-Year Retirement

Doyle Brunson, the legendary poker player, has announced his return to the World Series of Poker (WSOP) 2021. The 87-year-old ten-time WSOP gold bracelet winner, who retired from tournaments three years ago, shared his plans via a tweet. Brunson expressed his excitement about returning to the WSOP, stating that he will be playing “...a few select tournaments in the WSOP this year.”

The WSOP 2021 is scheduled to begin on September 30 and will feature two months worth of events. Although it is not clear which tournaments Brunson is interested in playing, his last event at the WSOP gives us a clue. In 2018, Brunson finished in sixth place in the $10,000 NL 2-7 single draw championship, a tournament he has shown a particular affinity for. This year, the 3-day event is scheduled to start on Monday, October 25.

Brunson's return has generated a lot of excitement among poker fans. Many followers have expressed their enthusiasm and plans to attend the WSOP to catch a glimpse of one of the greatest players of all-time. The annual pilgrimage to Las Vegas has been a significant part of Brunson's life since the WSOP came into existence, and his return is sure to be a highlight of the 2021 event.
