Raise your edge founder bencb789 has named Stephen Chidwick as the greatest poker tournament player of all time. The German crusher has been watching the Brit display his skills at the Triton Vietnam series and is clearly impressed.
Is Stephen Chidwick the Best Poker Tournament Player?
Chidwick is the GOAT of Tournament Poker.
Not even close.— bencb (@bencb789) March 7, 2023
Stephen Chidwick currently sits fourth on the all-time leader board for live event earnings with a grand total of $46,984,276 in the bank. But is he the best around today?
There’s no doubt that it’s going to be difficult to remove Phil Ivey from his throne as the best we have ever seen but in terms of purely tournaments Chidwick is like a juggernaut right now and looks to have no equal.
The comments are funny 😂 some middle age Americans who watch poker on ESPN disagree

It’s also going to be impossible to convince the American player pool and this will turn into a verbal sparring war against the Europeans. While Phil Ivey is still young and Phil Hellmuth so visible in the scene, Stephen Chidwick probably isn’t going to get all the credit he deserves.
With only a single World Series of Poker bracelet on his record, the naysayers might have a point but surely the massive earnings at least put him in the conversation.
