I think the more interesting question is who has made the most strictly from poker. That could be Phil Ivey but I wouldn't know.

I don't think Phil has been playing the Big Game long enough for this to be true.

Why isn't Greenstein coming up more? Doesn't he make sickening amounts of money just playing poker? Or are people discounting him just because he gives a few million here and there to charity?

I would have to know a lot more about the compensation given to the original FTP pros to answer this question. If it sucks then I'm guessing Phil has made the most money from his UB deal... but no idea.

when you kill the side games and can afford to dump all your tournament winnings to charity, you deserve to be mentioned in this thread

Yeah, probably. I've heard it said that this guy is so loaded that he plays in the Big Game "just for fun". [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

I would think Phil Hellmuth. He has made lots of money with his books, UB, and other deals he made outside the Pokertable.

How about Lyle Berman and all that WPT money and stock?

Or Mike Sexton's double whammy with getting in early at Party and on the WPT?
