Chip Reece RIP

Wow, for those that don't know, he was a legend of sorts and considered by many to subjectively be the best player in the world. I met him briefly in 2006 at the WSOP -- he was genuinely a nice guy. I had no idea he was ill.

Wow. Bummer. Very skilled player, and not a TV hound. Great cash game player.

Really good guy for poker.
Just a shame.
Wait, he's my age.
I think I need to go into hiding ;)

Sounds like no one else including himself realized how ill he was...just had pneumonia and died in his sleep at home.

Great player period...perhaps the best we have seen all-around.

Too bad we never got to see him on High Stakes Poker...
