49-year-old Michael Woods recently died of a heart attack, leaving his brother, actor James Woods, his family, and Hollywood Poker.com in shock. Woods was an official of the online poker room, helping manage the site at the behest of his brother, one of the site's founders. James Woods, who hired his brother when his partner suggested it due to Michael Woods charisma and participation at the poker room, is well-known for his appearances on the World Series of Poker and credits Michael withheld there as well.
Michael is survived by his mother, Martha Dixon, his brother James, and his three children, Sarah, Payton, and Jacqueline. The Michael Woods forum has been set up at HollywoodPoker.com for members to discuss and send their condolences.
