Stephen Chidwick Takes Number 2 Spot On The All-Time Money List

Stephen Chidwick has moved ahead of Justin Bonomo into second place on the Hendon Mob’s All-Time Money List. 

This marks the first change in the second-place ranking since August 2023, following Bonomo's extended tenure directly behind Bryn Kenney. 

Chidwick's recent deep runs in the Triton Poker Montenegro 2025 series ensured Chidwick dethrones Bonomo on the list. 

So far, the British pro has recorded 19 tournament cashes, totaling up to $2,899,153. Of this total, $1,519,000 came from Triton Montenegro. 

These recent results have boosted Chidwick’s lifetime earnings to $66,273,388, narrowly surpassing Bonomo’s career figure of $65,611,097. Both Chidwick and Bonomo still trail all time money leader Bryn Kenney. 

In March 2025, Kenney achieved a milestone by becoming the first poker professional to hit the $75 million mark in recorded live tournament earnings.

Justin Bonomo has notably stepped back from tournament participation this year, failing to record any earnings in 2025. Meanwhile, Chidwick has maintained an active and rigorous tournament schedule, consistently cashing across global poker events and amassing nearly $3 million in prize money thus far.

Chidwick's strongest performances have come from high-profile Triton Poker events in Jeju and Montenegro, accumulating 12 cashes combined from these two events.

His most notable result during this period includes a sixth-place finish in Montenegro’s $100,000 buy-in Main Event, earning $879,000, alongside a third-place finish in an eight-handed $30,000 event for $463,000. 

Additionally, Chidwick placed third in the European Poker Tour Monte Carlo's €25,000 Pot-Limit Omaha High Roller and achieved a podium finish at the U.S. Poker Open.

Throughout his career, Chidwick has repeatedly proven himself at the highest levels of competitive poker, amassing more than $1 million from single tournaments on 13 occasions—a milestone few players have matched.

Chidwick earned his inaugural World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelet in 2019, capturing the $25,000 Pot-Limit Omaha High Roller event. 

His second bracelet victory came from the 2024 WSOP Paradise, netting him $1,357,080, ranking as his sixth-largest tournament cash.

Chidwick’s career-best cash came two months after his first bracelet win, earning $5,368,947 for finishing fourth in the historic £1.05 million Triton Million for Charity event in London. 

Interestingly, Bryn Kenney secured poker’s largest single payout at the same event, finishing second and taking home $20,563,324 following a heads-up deal with the eventual winner Aaron Zang.

Stephen Chidwick’s annual earnings show remarkable consistency for more than a decade. Since 2013, he has consistently exceeded $1 million in annual tournament winnings, highlighted by a standout year in 2019 with $13,528,992 in total earnings. 

That year, Chidwick registered deep runs in Triton events and his breakthrough WSOP bracelet win. In 2018, he earned an impressive total of $10,197,347.

It remains interesting to see if Chidwick races ahead of Byrn Kenney in the All Time Money in the coming days.
