Chad Brown In Hospice Care - Passed Away on July 1

Poker Pro Chad Brown is in Hospice Care in NY after a brave battle against a rare cancer.
The wsop gave him an honorary Gold Bracelet last week and it arrived yesterday his family place bracelet on his arm-He's not lucid be can hear his family talk to him.
I hope his journey is a peaceful one.

oh that is such sad news. I hope he has a peaceful passing.

Didnt know that.
So sad.

It has been talked about a lot this week. There were tweets going around on Saturday that he had passed away but they were false. It will happen any day now though - very sad.

He was a very healthy person and took great care of himself. Cancer is a nasty disease that we need to be able to cure.

It sucks when your primary source of light can give you cancer

He passed away. So sad:

"Chad Brown rubbed elbows with James Bond, faced down a maniacal killer, won a baseball championship, and earned more than $3.6 million playing a card game. A model, actor, baseball player, and poker legend, Brown lived his entire life earning a living in ways that most people believed impossible. He died today in New York City after a lengthy battle with cancer. He was 52 years old."

So young so sad... he will be missed...I think its great they awarded him with a gold braclet

It's always said to see someone go at such an age. It reminds us just how short and precious life is.

R.I.P chad brown, a truly sad week for poker with 2 of the best guys leaving us. I remember watching him on poker after dark and always had a smile on his face and was such a pleasant funny guy, my thoughts are with his loved ones
