Erick won his first major tournament at the Bellagio in 2002 and followed that up with his first WPT win just 10 months later. Not even six months after that, Erick won the Poker Million III, where he walked away with the million dollar top prize.

Erick came back strong at the start of 2006, when he took third in the WPT No-Limit Hold 'em Championship event at the Borgata Winter Open. Then, Erick won the Fourth Annual Five Star Poker Classic. In June 2006, Erick won $600,000 in the $120,000 No-Limit Hold 'em event at the "FullTiltPoker.Net Pro Showdown at the Red Rock Casino." After that, he cashed in four events at the 2006 WSOP, finishing second in Short Handed No-Limit Hold 'em to fellow Full Tilt Poker pro Jeff Madsen.

After a few months rest, Erick returned to form at the 2007 Aussie Millions where he won the Main Event and more than $795,000 in prize money. He cashed in a number of tournaments throughout the rest of the year, including two top-10 finishes on the WPT and an eighth-place finish in the WSOP’s $1,500 No-Limit Hold ‘em Shootout event.

In June of 2008, Erick earned his first WSOP bracelet. He worked his way through a starting field of 331 players to claim victory in the $5K Mixed Hold ‘em event. In addition to his bracelet, Erick earned over $374K. That victory brought Erick’s career tournament winnings to more than $6 million and moved him to 20th on the all-time money list.

Given his drive and competitive nature, we’re sure he won’t stop there.
