Eric Drache is a professional poker player, former cardroom manager and consultant for NBC. A notable seven-card stud player since the early 1970's, Drache is better known for his management contributions to the poker world.

Drache was responsible for inventing tournament satellites while running the World Series of Poker in the 1970's as a way to get more entries per tournament. Drache also managed and hosted notable cardrooms at the Golden Nugget and The Mirage. Drache's innovations as poker manager include: ante structures, dealer training and the invention of the "must-move" table. Eric Drache trained both Donna Harris and Doug Dalton, cardroom managers at The Mirage and Bellagio respectively.

In the middle nineties he was prosecuted on federal tax fraud charges and lost his Nevada gaming license as a result, which is required to work in casinos.
