In addition to his Super High Roller wins in China in March and Las Vegas this summer, Bonomo pushed his winnings for the year to $25 million, which placed him above Daniel Negreanu as he climbed to the top-spot on the all-time poker tournament money list with $42.998 million.

Although it is not an accurate tally of the money he has pocketed, it indicates how well Bonomo has played so far.

“Because of the wins this year, I do get to taking big pieces of myself,” said Bonomo.

“This was a million-dollar buy-in, but I was not able to put up anywhere close to even half the money myself. It really made this even more special for me,” he added.
