1986 WSOP Champion - Berry Johnston
Hailing from Oklahoma, Berry Johnston is a true poker legend with almost 30 WSOP final table appearances. At one time he held the record for most WSOP cashes at 48. He currently has 51. In one of the most remarkable stats in the history of poker, Berry Johnston has cashed at least once a year in a WSOP event since 1982. For over 25 years, he's picked up at least one money finish. That's simply an amazing feat.

Johnston has won five bracelets in three different decades including the 1986 Main Event, where he won $570,000 for first place. He also earned bracelets in Match Play (1983), Limit Hold'em (1990), Limit Omaha (1995), and Razz (2001). He has won over $2.8 million in career tournament earnings.

Johnston was inducted into the Poker Hall of Fame in 2004.
