Prior to founding DeucesCracked, Jay Rosenkrantz established a personal coaching company 3bet.net.

Upon founding, the site was managed as an online entity with no central headquarters; the executive officers themselves worked from Seattle, Southern California, and New York.[2]

The DeucesCracked brand was founded in January 2007 with Rob "Entity" Cole, Joe "Joe Tall" Tall, Chris "DeathDonkey" Vitch, Chuck "danzasmack" Danielsson, and Jay "KRANTZ" Rosenkrantz as the executive officers.[2][3][4]
