Like many poker legends, David “Chip” Reese showed signs of a poker prodigy early in life. Beating kids twice his age at poker in his youth, Reese would continue to show his natural ability all the way through college, where he regularly beat his fraternity brothers at Dartmouth.
After graduating, Reese had considered attending Stanford’s Business School, but after winning $60,000 during his first trip to Las Vegas, he never left.
Often regarded as the greatest Seven Card Stud player to ever live, Reese contributed his knowledge to Doyle Brunson’s Super/System, considered by many to be the greatest poker strategy book ever produced.
While primarily known as one of the greatest players to ever sit at a cash game table, Reese’s three WSOP bracelet victories further add to his timeless legacy.
Reese won his third bracelet in the $50,000 H.O.R.S.E event at the 2006 WSOP. Following his passing in 2007, the trophy for the $50,000 H.O.R.S.E. event was renamed the Poker Players Championship in his honor.
To this day, Reese is the only poker player to have a trophy named after them at the WSOP.
