One of the elder statesmen for the “Friends” of Full Tilt Poker, Brecher has earned the respect of his peers across the country by cashing in numerous World Poker Tour tournaments. His highest-ever tournament finish came at the 2005 United States Poker Championship, where he finished third and collected a cool $218,250.

Having first tried poker in 1966 in Palo Alto, California, Brecher developed his poker repertoire and developed a deep passion for the game. After trying his hand at a number of games, Brecher decided that the 2003 No Limit poker boom was proof that No Limit Hold’em was here to stay and has adjusted his game accordingly.

Always a thrill-seeker, Brecher moves through life the way he moves through tournament competition and is often challenging himself to constantly improve upon his game.
