Well Ben Grundy must be up there now, pretty much universally considered one of the top PLO players in the world. Oh and 2million+ year.

Julian seems to be heading the list of live donkament players, in alot of peoples eyes now.

which UK poker players can beat Stars 25/50?

I honestly don't know Byron, is the answer none?

Which British player is worth the most money from poker alone?

Does that include "off-Table" Poker Income? For example, & just an example, as I can think of several - Joe Beevers has done pretty well on th table, & I doubt he's done much buying in to Tourneys down the last 5 years, but he's also helped build an extremely successful Online Poker portal, & owns a hefty chunk, in THM, & he has several irons in other fires, too.

Do these sort of guys qualify, or are we talking "on-Table" only?

And "worth the most money from poker alone" is awkward. I can think of several who have won fortunes at Poker - & lost the lot (& more) "off-Table", at craps, roulette, gambling, whatever. So is it just those who hung onto it?

Very hard to define "worth the most"........!

Interesting point Mr Kendall.

I guess my question is two fold then.

Which Uk poker player has made the most from poker results be it tournament/cash, online or live?

Which UK player has made the most from poker? Things like the incomes from the Hendon mob website or appearance money ppl like Roland get when they are on TV or final tables would count in this where they wouldnt in the first part.

I know this thread was originally made over a year ago, but I think Joe Beevers is a contender for both at the moment. I think he will end up the biggest winner from the Mob (tournament wise) in a year or so and reckon he has got a few more big titles in him, Im thinking a GUKPT or even a bracelet, it wouldnt suprise me to see him break into the top 3 English all time money list in the next two years. He also seems to be a very very astute business man and THM gets something like 100,000 unique hits a week. He could be our own version of Tony G.

Now we are talking my language.

Good Post. I'll try & Post some comments later, I have to go out for a few hours first. But yes, Joe has done very well indeed. Forget his "on-Table" winnings, off the Table he's made a mint. And hung on to every penny, I'd say.

I have a few more "Joe Beevers" typs in mind, too, who've done very well off-table.

I'm struggling to think of more than three UK players, "Live", who have won, "on-Table", &, crucially, kept, much.

Actually, Neil Channing could be a dark horse for both too. Obv he has had a cracking 12 months in tournaments, is still a big cash player and he is getting his mug on TV a lot. He does loads of wrting and commentary on TV. Has been involved in things like compiling poker odds for sportsbooks, he does very well betting on himself of course and he also likes to stake EVERYONE IN THE WORLD.

He doesnt seem the type to cover himself in poker logos for a few extra quid and I dont know how big a winner he is at the staking, but he deffo must be in the mix.

While Im ranting, Marc Goodwin too. Lots of good results lately and seems to be on everything at the moment, in all the mags and always going commentary.

In a slightly lower market poll, I have written 31% of all the poker articles in the world ever.
