On Monday night, word spread throughout the poker world that six-time World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelet winner Layne Flack, 52, was found dead at his home. A cause of death is not known at this time. Born May 18, 1969, Flack hailed from Rapid City, South Dakota before working as a poker dealer in small card clubs in Montana. Eventually, he found his way to Nevada and learned under poker greats like Johnny Chan and Ted Forrest. At 24, he and his girlfriend moved to Reno, Nevada and by 1995, when his daughter Hailey was born, Layne was a full-time professional poker player, The piece continued: His first big score came at the Horseshoe, where he won a Hall of Fame $1500 no-limit hold em event, and pocketed $68,000. Other tournament wins followed, and so did some high-limit live action. Layne s ability didn t go unnoticed by poker s best players, and when he went through a few bad sessions, Johnny Chan was more than willing to back his play.
