Poker Leaderboard: Canada's All-Time Money List

Canada is one of the great poker-playing nations in the world. It is the only country outside of the United States to have produced at least three players inside the top 25 on the global all-time money list. Canada also has the second most World Series of Poker bracelets won by any country with 69. With that in mind, the Canadian tournament earnings leaderboard is one of the most competitive in the world, and the top 10 saw multiple big names add to their career totals in a big way in recent weeks.

Daniel Negreanu remains the country’s top earner with nearly $45.7 million in lifetime cashes to his name. The six-time WSOP bracelet winner and two-time World Poker Tour main event champion has cashed for more than $928,000 already this year. The next three players on this leaderboard all recorded multiple six-figure scores in April thanks to strong showings at the Super High Roller Series Europe and the Triton Poker Cyprus dual festivals.

Timothy Adams of Burlington, Ontario backed up a strong showing at the EPT Prague in March by making three final tables and winning one title in Cyprus, cashing for more than $1.4 million along the way. The bracelet winner and two-time Super High Roller Bowl champion now has more than $29.1 million in tournament scores under his belt.

Sam Greenwood is the third-ranked player from the great white north with more than $24.2 million in lifetime earnings. The bracelet winner from Toronto cashed for nearly $850,000 during the recent high-stakes festivals in Europe, including a runner-up showing in a $50,000 buy-in no-limit hold’em event for $473,000.

Greenwood’s opponent in that heads-up match was none other than fourth-ranked Daniel Dvoress of Mississauga. He earned $731,000 for that victory, but also added five more cashes to bring his total for the series to nearly $2.2 million. As a result, he increased his career total to more than $20.6 million to further distance himself from 2010 WSOP main event champion and three-time bracelet winner Jonathan Duhamel, who sits in fifth place with nearly $18 million. ♠
