BRUNSON - CARO POKER MATCH TEACHES TOO

CD-ROM now available

Doyle Brunson, winner of nine championship bracelets at the World Series of Poker, has a new CD-ROM out that is attracting comment on Internet poker fora this week.

The highlight of the offering is a lively and informative heads-up poker game between Brunson and the "Mad Genius of Poker" Mike Caro, poker's leading educator.

"This is different from anything you've seen before," says Caro, who has joined Brunson at Doyle's Room.com to promote the tutorial.

"You see us on video competing online from separate rooms, commenting to the camera as we make our decisions and explain exactly what we're thinking. After they pieced the video together, I was shocked to hear some of Doyle's on-the-money comments about what he thought I was holding and I'm guessing he was surprised by some of mine."

Brunson revolutionised poker education with the 1978 publication of his Super/System - A Course in Power Poker, followed this year by the long-awaited sequel Super/System 2.

Aged 71, he's still winning in the world's largest games and on primetime network television. Earlier this year, he emerged as the champion in a major World Poker Tour event. There were 667 players dealt in, but in the end, there was only Brunson, with everyone else's chips stacked in front of him.

Look out for "Doyle Brunson's Guide to the New World of Poker", an interactive CD-ROM available for free this month. For the first time, players will be able to access - at no charge - tips from both Brunson and Caro, whom Brunson believes is the world's best teacher of both the fundamentals and the subtleties of the game.

The CD provides multimedia instruction for players at all levels, contains a documentary on the evolution of the game from the days of "Texas Dolly" Brunson's Texas Rounders to the cultural phenomenon the game is today.
