One of the greatest poker players on the pro circuit passed away recently, shocking the poker world. News spread Tuesday that David "Chip" Reese had died at the age of 56. Reese was a legend in the poker community, especially at the "Big Game" played by the high stakes pros. He was the first to win the HORSE event at the World Series of Poker, long considered the game that shows who is the best player as it involves five, and sometimes six, different poker games. Reese is a three time WSOP bracelet winner and in 1991 was the youngest player ever to be inducted into the Poker Hall of Fame.
