Many people who aren't too familiar with the ways of the poker world may believe that those poker pros who win at tournaments get to take all the millions of cash they won with them, but little do they know that there's a lot more being lost when it comes to huge buy-ins, re-buys and not to mention the scores of other little deals (i.e. sponsors) to settle after a tourney has been won.

Just looking at the amounts of money these people have won is making my eyes water. I have seen Bryn Kenney play a few times on t.v. and it is no surprise to see him doing so well

These people are breathing poker. In their place they will take a break to allow other players to earn fabulous sums of money because when you have money you can open some small businesses. To be honest if i were a professional i would be bored at one time. I can not always play poker without bothering me.

Massive well done to Bryn Kenney, who managed to amass over US$8 million in live tournament earnings last year. I am pretty sure that his next accomplishment is right around the corner. Wishing him all the best for his next exciting endeavors.

Almost three millions in buy ins for live tournaments Never thought they reach that high. Not even close. But if you consider rebuying can get to the sky really fast. Three players on top of the list, all of them with a bit more than 8 millions for the year. which means almost 22k USD per day. Not bad
