Are PA and Phil Ivey the Only Two Players in Online History to Make More than 10mil $$$?
HSDB 1/1/2007 - 1/5/2010:
Phil Ivey $15.666.862,77
Patrik Antonius $10.320.766,05
OMGClayAiken $7.531.164,94
Urindanger $5.040.196,90
trex313 $5.019.416,99
Top 5 from HSDB. Obviously it has NOT tracked everything, but it should give a rough indication. It also only goes back to Jan 1, 2007. That being said, I am not sure almost anyone had made more than 2 mil before that date, but that is just a guess.
So has anyone else made more than 10mil in online poker history?
Before people say durrrr, he is only up 1.37mil since 1/1/2007 on HSDB. There is no chance he made 8mil prior to 07.
Galfond admits to being very underrolled when he jumped into HS action, so you can only add about 500k to his totals. So are there any euro players that somehow never made it to the main sites?
Perhaps trex and urin should count as one since they basically share their roll.

There is no way to know. Anything made prior to 07 might be downplayed on purpose. My instincts tell me that the Dangs and Galfond have made more in other areas, but we'll really never know.
Also PA might have cherrybombed 5-6million in total on other sites prior to tracking. Might not really be up close to 10. Just saying it works both ways.

uhh, he has said his shots at 100/200+ were with 500k. You do realize people didn't just go from 5/10 to 500/1k, jesus.

15 million in 3 years is pretty fricken sick for Phil Ivey considering that is exclusively online doesn't consider tournaments, live, FTP stake, 100% rakeback etc or anything else.

How could someone refute a baseless statement like 'I heard so and so made gazillions'? it's barely a 'claim' to begin with.

As you're only including online I think you're right.

I had 10 million chips on pogo in the 90's. At the time i thought Texas Holdem was a stupid game and Cincinnati (5 hole cards, 5 community cards use any combo) was the nuts with 2 card poker (no flop, just two down cards each) was the nuts in the hi/lo format.

Once upon a time I would have said Hoss, but he hasn't been a winner/gotten significant action in a long time. Otterkopf just posted his $2m year graph in BBV, so I would guess him and St1ck have probably made in the $5 mil range?
