Ironically, I was actually re-reading Supersystem last night while it came on. I did not even know that Brunson was going to be on the show this week. It was kind of cool to be reading about how he plays and watching him play at the same time. I have to say that he is not just blowing smoke in the book, it appears that he actually practices what he preaches. It was funny, in the beginning of the NL section he gives an example of a hand that he loves to play 76 suited and he says that he will often call large raises with a hand like that. About 5 minutes after I read that part, he calls a raise with 65 suited ( basically the same hand) and hit the straight on the flop and won the tournament. It made it sink in so much more that just reading it. I was like " this old mamma jamma actually DOES still play like this."
