Re: Helmuth and Ferguson discuss career profits....
Directly from Cardplayer:
Date / Time: 2005-07-16 01:33:00 Title: One shot wonder? Log: CardPlayer.com commentator Phil Hellmuth just put in perspective how large the prize pool is for this World Series of Poker final table. Phil said that during his entire poker career he has pocketed about $7 million in tournament poker winnings. The man who walks away from this final table will surpass his twenty plus years of tournament mastery with just one victory. |

I wouldn't doubt that Hellmuth was "forgetting" to subtract the buy-ins. [/ QUOTE ] He didn't say he won 8 million; he said he CASHED for 7-8 million. |

So then he's won even less which is even more surprising. Im going to sleep this final table is taking too long.

Ivey, Greenstein, Reese, Doyle and Todd Brunson. I would say all easily have over 10 million in career earnings.

Well at least for Greenstein, Reese and Doyle. Not sure about Todd and Ivey, but I've heard that Ivey plays outside of his bankroll. |
