Brad Booth didn’t chase the safe route.
He chased the game.

From a small town outside Vancouver
to underage casino sessions and smoky backroom games
to building a bankroll in the Yukon
to helping spark the first no-limit game at Bellagio in 1999
to living inside the Bellagio and taking shots at the biggest tables in the world.

Brad Booth isn’t polished.
He isn’t careful.
He’s the guy who put Phil Ivey in the tank…with 4-high…for $300,000.

And when it all went sideways?
He disappeared into the Oregon woods.
Now he's back to face it head on.
