Doyle Brunson is fed up with being abused on Twitter

Doyle Brunson is fuming after being repeatedly abused on Twitter.

The 77-year-old poker legend was forced to block several users today and sent a furious message warning people to stop sending 'hate Tweets'.

It came after Texas Dolly claimed that Barack Obama was the first US President in 110 years to miss the Army-Navy football game.

He later admitted he had his facts wrong, accepting that Presidents Lyndon Johnson, Richard Nixon, Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan and George Bush had all failed to attend the match.

He added: "I was wrong again. Is anyone surprised?"

But his admission didn't stop a series of abusive Tweets from militant Democrats.

It is not the first time Brunson has caused a storm on Twitter.

Earlier this year he managed to upset the entire world on the social network and last year he was pronounced dead on Twitter, only to Tweet several hours later that he was alive but had been drinking 'lots of Corona'.
