Matt Snook, who crossed off a bucket list item of playing in the World Series of Poker (WSOP) just one month ago, passed away after a year-long battle with cancer.

The Kansas City resident and two-time “The Voice” contestant served as an inspiration when he entered the 2024 WSOP Main Event in July. He was not only terminally ill at the time, but wasn’t feeling very well when he sat down to play. PokerNews caught up with him for a chat before the Day 1d session began, and he explained why he traveled halfway across the country to play in the largest buy-in tournament of his life.
