From pokerverdict and, of course, very old news:

Veteran Norwegian player Thor Hansen has the right idea though. When asked in the documentary No Limit: A Search for the American Dream on the Poker Tournament Trail what he would do if he won a million dollars he gives the standard reply, “ Maybe buy a few things and pay off a couple of debts”. He is then asked, “What about the rest?” to which he replies, “Well, I’d just tell them they’d have to wait”.

Best poker line not delivered by Mr. Gabe Kaplan.

The bankrolls of many well known players is a lot less than you would imagine. Most High Stakes players live and die by their ability to sell action to others. There is zero chance that Ivey would put up 10 million of his own money to play in anything. The Andy Beal matchup is a perfect example.

But barry is rich off of other things unrelated to poker and donates his tourney winnings to charity, so his numbers are skewed.....

Didn't Barry say in his book that this is a big myth with him? That he was just a peon at Symantec and almost all of his wealth came from poker?

That this is a myth is further backed up in Michael Craig's book The Professor, The Banker and the Suicide King. Although I'm sure both sources were Barry himself.

Barry didn't let the image that he'd earnt a lot of money outside of poker die easily due to the action it enabled him to get, at least in the beginning.
