Hal Fowler at the 1979 World Series of Poker

Hal Fowler was a professional poker player.

Although a relative unknown, Fowler won the 1979 World Series of Poker main event. At one time he was down to around $2,000 in chips (out of over $500,000) at a final table that included Johnny Moss, Bobby Baldwin, and other world class poker players. Additionally, it's believed that Fowler couldn't cover the entrance fee and Benny Binion had to loan it to him. Fowler's 1979 win is sometimes called the greatest upset in the history of the WSOP.

Fowler would later fade from the poker scene because of complications from diabetes that hurt his eyesight and his legs.
