The Big Game 1

Chip Reese was a stand up guy. There was a reason a thousand people went to his funeral. He always tipped the dealers a green chip ($25) for dealing a down in the big 4000/8000 game. I was dealing that game a couple of months before the WSOP was having the inaugural $50,000 HORSE event. Doyle Brunson, Chip, Phil, Eli Elizera & Barry Greenstein were talking about taking pieces of each other in the event. Doyle got upset about the terms of something and everyone decided not to take a piece of Chip in the even if Doyle wasn't in. The deal feel through. Two months later Chip won the event for like 1.6 Million. Oops.
