He may be a late bloomer in the tournament world, but John Gale certainly knew how to make an entrance when he did decide to plunge in.

Already in his early 50s and a poker player for more than 30 years, Gale made his big debut in the 2005 World Poker Tour (WPT) PokerStars.com Caribbean Adventure. He'd won his way in through PokerStars.com and surprised everyone when he went on to dominate the tournament and win the whole thing.
