Athletes - Layne Flack

Layne Flack (born May 18 1969 in Rapid City, South Dakota) is an American professional poker player, residing in Montana and Nevada.

Flack started playing cards with his grandparents, but became engrossed in the game whilst working at a casino. He would regularly go to another casino after work to play poker. Despite becoming the Night Manager in his job, he quit as he was spending too much time on poker to continue working full-time as well.

He met up with Johnny Chan
who helped him improve his game and, following a big loss, encouraged Flack to ensure he had a lot of rest before a tournament. He has also been mentored by Huck Seed
.

In 2004, Flack began experimenting with drugs. His friend, Daniel "Kid Poker" Negreanu stepped in and paid $80,000 for him to go into rehab. Flack has apparently now recovered from the experience.

As of 2005 he has made over $3,100,000 in live tournament winnings.

In his freetime, Flack enjoys listening to 1980's music and playing golf.

World Series of Poker (WSOP)

Flack has made several noticeable finishes at the WSOP, including winning 5 bracelets.

He got the nickname "Back to Back Flack" after winning two consecutive WSOP events in 2002.
