Australia All Time Poker Money List
- The $10 million first-place prize catapulted Bonomo ahead of Daniel Negreanu to sit on top of the poker world’s most-watched list–all-time tournament earnings. Bonomo now lays claim to $42,979,591 in lifetime live tournament earnings. Negreanu has $39,656,196. Negreanu didn’t seem to mind relinquishing the top spot.

Two Australian young guns have made their way to the top of the high-stakes, no-limit hold’em tournament scene in recent years. As a result, they both have skyrocketed up the standings on Australia’s all-time money list to put pressure on World Series of Poker main event champion Joe Hachem, who banked $7.5 million when he won it all in 2005 and another $2.2 million when he won the WPT Five Diamond World Poker Classic a year later.
