Default Re: Rookie of the Year: John Gale

not to take anything away from a guy regarding skill, BUT

what part of his success do you think is due solely to the fact that he won a WPT, thus had a ton of extra poker money to go buy into a crazy # of tournaments and play LAG in?

He sucks because he won a big tournament. Nice.

I get what you mean, but being able to not care about money doesn't take away from his skill. It can just ADD to the respect some low stakes people should get if they don't care about the money at stake.

Gale definitely took some terrible beats heads up for a WSOP bracelet and deserved it much more than his opponent.
