WSOP day 39: Galen Hall wins the Crazy Eights for $888,888

Another round-up from the World Series of Poker this time focusing on victory in the Crazy Eights bracelet event for the former PokerStars Caribbean Adventure Main Event winner, Galen Hall. 

The first time Galen Hall won a live poker tournament, he wasn’t messing around. It was back in 2011 when poker was as lively as a honeycomb in bee season. Hall defeated 1,560 entrants to win the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure (PCA) Main Event for $2.3m.

Put on your skis lad; it’s all downhill from there.

No skis required. You only have to look at Hall to realise he dodged the shoeshine boy genes. Good looking, charming, intelligent – Hall even wears a mean suit.
