Brunson: Rousso will be around for a long time

2009-03-10 16:58:24

NBC National Heads-Up Championship runner-up Vanessa Rousso will be around for a while yet, says Doyle Brunson.

The Texas Dolly lost to the new GoDaddy girl in the first round and said on his blog that he did not have a chance against her as she had the best hands.

Despite his loss, Brunson was hoping his opponent would go on to win the competition because "it would be really good for poker".

"Vanessa probably isn't ready for the high stakes cash games but she is certainly good enough for the tournaments," he added.

The ten-time World Series of Poker bracelet winner also gave his motto or "Doylism" for the day, stating failure should teach people something instead of making them quit what they love doing.

Meanwhile, Daniel Negreanu wrote on his Full Contact Poker blog after playing Rousso that some "stupid" decisions had contributed to his downfall in the quarter-final game.
