The death of Chip Reeses’s son Casey Reese was confirmed today, not only by Daniel Negranue on the popular Pocket Fives poker resource, but by Jessica at the Clark County Coroner’s Office. According to Jessica at the Coroners’ office, Reese died yesterday at 17:25.
Toxicology reports are on order, and generally take somewhere between four and 12 weeks Jessica told us.
I was at Bellaagio last night when we all got the news. Very sad. Everyone took it pretty hard. Kid was 20 years old, an incredible baseball pitcher, super smart, good looking kid… very sad. Chau was a very good friend of both Chip and Casey and while he came down to play poker he just couldn’t do it. It was a shock. People were both sad, and also pretty angry at the same time.
Said a more familiar person, Daniel Negranue today on the FCP Poker Forum .
