To millions of poker players around the world, Eric Haber is known simply as “sheets.” A former hedge fund manager, Haber was drawn to the game while living in New York City. At the time when he was introduced to poker, backgammon was Haber’s primary game of choice. A friend told him about a private club that ran small tournaments, and he decided to give one a try. Haber made it to the final table of the first tournament he played, ending it with a 10-way chop. From that night forward, he was hooked on learning more about the game, and focused initially on the “Sit and Go” single-table format. While he has been known to openly label “SNG” tournaments as not a real form of poker, he has also made himself something of an expert in the field of SNG strategy.
Not long after being introduced to poker, Haber encountered a group of young men who expressed to him a desire to turn the poker world upside down through their combination of youth and unconventional play. Haber liked what he heard, and agreed to back them in tournament poker. The young men referred to themselves as “The Crew” and included World Series bracelet winners Scott Fischman and Brett Jungblut, as well as the infamous Dutch Boyd. The investment proved to be a lucrative one and Haber has continued to back a number of other poker players with great success.
In March of 2005, Haber joined with his good friend Cliff “JohnnyBax” Josephy to launch the poker training site PokerXFactor. Widely considered to be the premier training site on the Internet, “PXF” compiles videos, hand histories, articles and blogs from not only Haber and Josephy, but also a steadily growing group of well-known Internet professionals, such as Eric “Rizen” Lynch and Jon “PearlJammer” Turner.
As of August 2008, Haber has over $1.1 million in online winnings. In March 2008, he won the WSOP championship event at Caesar’s Palace Atlantic City for just over $431,000. This long-awaited live win help cement his status as a threat in the live poker world as well, and boosted his total live winnings to almost $700,000.
