Please tell me this isn't true.
An absolute legend of this community. If FTR had a Mt Rushmore, he'd be one of the 4 faces on there.

I can't find an obit, but it's not really conclusive of anything.
It's on 2p2 as well with about 20 replies came to login to ftr for first time in a while hoping it wasn't true :'(
Damn. RIP, yo. FTR 4eva.
RIP
I saw Lexy Gavin tweet about this, I texted her but didn't hear back. Ali Nejad and Nick Schulman then talked about it on PokerGo.
Oh man, RIP
RIP Rich. I learned so many things from this legend. And got owned countless times. Tragic.
Great dude. Will be very, very missed.
Saw it too. Listening to DAT Poker podcast, Daniel mentioned that he received coaching. Dude was really good. RIP.
RIP! This is one of my favorite poker players. I was just in shock when I found out that he died at such an early age. It was his success that made me work on myself and continue to earn money. I always wanted to be as cool as he ... When I was 5 years old, my father taught me how to play poker. I learned very quickly and won my father very easily. Then I grew up and started playing with friends and online. Then I didn’t even think that I could make money on this. At that moment, my father’s business fell into decay and we didn’t even have money for food. In the same period, I learned about this poker player and began to admire him. I realized that thanks to poker I can make money, but because of my age I could not play in a regular casino and then I started practicing in an online casino tournament. I read a lot of reviews and found an online casino with the best reputation
and immediately won the tournament. I brought my father $ 5,000 and he just cried. Since then, I continue to make money at poker and I love this game!
