Re: Jack Wilcox

He always made fun of how lazy I was when I didn't want to rail him or discuss hands. He'd always say "sure mate" but I knew he thought I was lazy. Just last week he said to me "watching videos is a goal??" Made me laugh because he knows I hate watching vids. Damn still really hard to realize he wont be logging into Skype and asking me how the grind is.

Re: Jack Wilcox

I used to talk to Jack all the time on skype about just about anything from poker to life. He always struck me as a kind hearted individual with no ill intentions towards anyone. Just a couple of months back when I was going through a pretty tough downswing online, he offered to help review my session without me asking and gave me lots of helpful constructive feedback on my game.

He was always one of my fav person to talk to on skype and it saddens me deeply now that he's gone. Jack was an inspiration to me and many others in the community, that with hard work and passion you can achieve whatever you set out to do in life.

Sometimes I marvel at how poetic it must be to die young. People remember you for your vitality and vigor, where no one sees you wasting away in old age and slowly losing grip of your faculties. Perhaps Jack was the fortunate one then, that all of us fondly recall him as one with the biggest heart and passion for life, as one who would go out there and grab life by the collar. Jack was a f*king go-getter who made this community just a whole lot better by being in it.

Perhaps then, we can take comfort and celebrate in the 22 years of life where he lived happy and glorious, touching each and everyone of us whom he came in contact with.

R.I.P Jack Wilcox, you will fondly be remembered and missed.

Re: Jack Wilcox

Sad news. Learnd a lot from his vids.
To everyone in Thailand, wear a helmet if you're biking. It's not because noone does that you should do the same. They drive like maniacs.

Re: Jack Wilcox

Stewart here. I met Jack online last summer (through Skype), we always had friendly conversations & he was clearly a very talented guy. The materials he produced for the poker community brought enjoyment to thousands of fellow players.

When I last spoke to Jack on Skype he said he was happy & enjoying life in Thailand, and in all my experiences with Jack he's been nothing less than a genuine, friendly and happy guy. He gave so much to the online poker community through his frequent contributions to TwoPlusTwo and through his coaching endeavours to help others improve at the game which he loved. A truly kind & sincere person he'll be sorely missed by us all, and my thoughts go out to his family and loved ones.

- When I recently asked Jack for a few more pictures of himself for the site, he sent me 3 pictures: 1 of him in swim trunks on a beautiful Thai island, 1 of him white water rafting with friends & 1 of him and a friend skiing. I feel like that alone says a lot about Jack, his happiness and his attitude toward life.

Rest in Peace Jack

Stewart
