Robert Gray, a poker player who lived in Las Vegas and was known to many fellow grinders as "A-Game Rob," has died from COVID-19, according to his friend Robert Goldfarb. Gray was 56 and died sometime between Tuesday night and Wednesday night.
Goldfarb reported the news in a lengthy Facebook post:
I never thought it was a hoax but I also hadn't yet been personally touched by Covid-19 until a few hours ago when I learned that my friend Robert Gray had been infected. A week ago Sunday he said he wasn't feeling well and had developed a cough.
