Remembering Those Poker Players and Personalities Who Passed Away in 2022

Back in January, Comedian Louie Anderson passed away at the age of 68 after a battle with cancer. He was no stranger to mainstream audiences as he performed a clean stand-up comedy routine for decades, won a Primetime Emmy Award in 2016 for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series for his role in FX’s Baskets, and hosted Family Feud from 1999-2002.
