Right before the Deadwood movie ramps back up.

That sucks. I loved the show and am excited about the movie... RIP

Son of a bitch...

I knew him initially from Deadwood, but was amazed to find out later on that he was a wiz with the cards:

RIP

I remember him from multiple Mamet movies first. I was late to the Deadwood party and only caught that 3-4 years ago. RIP

He was great. Wish I had been able to see him in person.

This is a really cool article that's been making the rounds again since he died.

Tolliver, Richardson, Eddie Sawyer all dead. At least Wu is still kicking
