Dvoress closes on Negreanu, and Brazil's high-roller generation rewrites its money list
Two countries, two changing lists. In Canada, Daniel Negreanu still leads with $60.7 million but Daniel Dvoress ($55.1M) is within one big result of overtaking him after a Triton PLO Main Event win in Montenegro in May 2026, with Sam Greenwood ($39.4M) and Mike Watson ($38.6M, Triton Jeju champion in September 2025) behind. In Brazil, Yuri Dzivielevski has almost doubled his live earnings to $14.9 million since his $2.8M WSOP High Roller win, and the top ten is now full of Triton and EPT regulars — Felipe Boianovsky ($7.7M), Kelvin Kerber, Bruno Volkmann and Alisson Piekazewicz — while André Akkari, the man who started it all, has slipped to tenth.
Canada's top ten as published by The Hendon Mob in September 2026: Negreanu $60.7M, Dvoress $55.1M, Greenwood $39.4M, Watson $38.6M, Kristen Foxen $19.2M, Jonathan Duhamel $18.0M, Sorel Mizzi $14.5M, Mike McDonald $13.4M, Alex Livingston $10.2M and Alan Engel $10.1M. Brazil's: Dzivielevski $14.9M, Pedro Padilha $8.0M, Boianovsky $7.7M, Kerber $5.6M, Volkmann $5.4M, Piekazewicz $5.2M, Marcelo Aziz $4.9M, Felipe Ramos $4.7M, Belarmino De Souza $4.6M and Akkari $4.1M. The contrast is telling: Canada's list is built on a decade of super-high-roller results by Toronto-based professionals, Brazil's on a wave that has arrived in the last three years and is still accelerating — Kerber's two EPT Monte Carlo finals in one week in May 2026 being the clearest example. Both countries' top players are profiled on our Canada and Brazil pages.
