    About this list

    Phil Hellmuth leads this list with $30M in live earnings, 17 WSOP bracelets. Erik Seidel and Johnny Chan complete the top three. Together, the 30 players on this list have won 211 WSOP bracelets and $622.7M in live tournament earnings.

    Every WSOP event awards its winner a gold bracelet. The tradition began in 1976, and the bracelet count has become the standard way to compare tournament careers across eras, because prize money grows with buy-ins while a bracelet is a bracelet.

    Phil Hellmuth won his first bracelet in the 1989 Main Event and has kept winning ever since. Behind him, Doyle Brunson, Johnny Chan and Erik Seidel finished with 10 each, while modern pros such as Michael Mizrachi, Shaun Deeb and Benny Glaser keep closing the gap.

    How this list is built

    Every player in our database with five or more WSOP bracelets, ranked by bracelets and then by live 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.
