Bryn Kenny is undeniably the star of the sport, even though he is a very controversial player. His $262,500 victory at the Luxon Pay Invitational at the Triton Series in London proved it and marked the end of a long run by professional Justin Bonomo at the top of the overall money list, which is defined by live tournament prize money as:
The American beat 118 entrants in the prestigious high-stakes series in the beautiful British capital to win the most expensive tournament on the schedule, raising a whopping $6,800,000 and holding a lot worth Something to celebrate. The winner of the “VIP” tournament hit the $64,829,392 profit mark in his long career to claim the title again.
It took a long 610 days for Bonomo to finally lose his crown. It’s worth noting that this very formidable duo has been battling for the top of the all-time money list for more than five years, and some changes have taken place in that time. In the last update on December 3, 2021, Justin Bonomo won the Super High Roller at Bellagio without even threatening to be passed.
There are good reasons for this. Bryn Kenny has played in far fewer games than Bonomo in the aforementioned period, making the fight for dominance even more difficult. While Kenney has won just 12 prizes over the course of a few months, Justin has won over 30 prizes for a total of $61,956,381. The difference between the two is $2,873,011.
The new name may not appear at the top in the next few updates. Daniel Negreanu (No. 3 – $51,077,626), Stephen Chidwick (No. 4 – $49,772,121) and Jason Koon (No. 5 – $49,467,008) are next on the list, with huge differences in value compared to Kenney and Bonomo.
