What is Shared by Family
Last Thursday, someone posted a since-confirmed statement from Booth’s family on the Two Plus Two forum. It read:
“All of our family would like to say thank you to everyone that is trying to locate Brad.
“At this time, we ask that you please refrain from sharing second-hand information and to please stop spreading suspicions and rumors. It is impeding the investigation instead of helping by taking valuable time away to verify all the information.
“If you have any relevant information to this investigation, we ask that you contact detective Tazy Ciofalo at the Reno Police Department at (775) 321-8372 and reference file #20-12315.
“Should she not answer, leave a detailed message and she will get right back to you. We are all heartbroken over this and wish for his safe return.
“Thank you.
“—Family of Brad Booth”
In addition, on that same Two Plus Two thread, a friend of Booth wrote, “Brad has at times gone off but would have contacted family or a close friend by now. We are hopeful for good news.”

What Poker Knows
Booth was known for many years in poker as “Yukon Brad.” Hailing from Vancouver, British Columbia, he started playing poker in Vancouver, then Calgary, and on to the Yukon. He played from the mid-1990s, when he was 19 or 20, and never stopped.
In live poker tournaments, though Booth shows results dating back to 2005 in Las Vegas at events like the World Series of Poker. He also made a big television appearance via the World Poker Tour when he final tabled the WPT Mandalay Bay Poker Championship in 2006 and finished third for $319,180.
By 2007, Booth was playing in high-stakes live games at the Bellagio in Las Vegas and on television shows like the NBC National Heads-Up Championship, High Stakes Poker, and Poker After Dark.
His online poker play at some of the highest-stakes tables online around 2007 prompted Full Tilt Poker to sign him as a “Red Pro.” Ultimately, Booth lost what he claimed was millions of dollars to the UltimateBet cheating scandal and Black Friday, the latter the date in 2011 that the United States seized all major online poker sites.
