    About this list

    Adrian Mateos leads this list with $62.7M in live earnings, 5 WSOP bracelets. Alex Foxen and David Peters complete the top three. Together, the 93 players on this list have won 143 WSOP bracelets and $1.2B in live tournament earnings.

    Online poker lets players see more hands in a year than a live player sees in a decade. That volume produced a generation of players who learned faster than anyone before them, and many of them later became stars of the live circuit.

    How this list is built

    Players whose biography documents a notable online poker career, ranked by verified live tournament earnings. Each player can appear on several lists at once; the chips under each name link to the other lists they belong to. Data is updated November 2026.
