The Canadian pro earned $3,388/hour in 2015 and his hourly rate is even better if we look at the last 3 years, in this timeframe he made $6,426 every hour with his tournaments.
Daniel Negreanu is the leader on the all-time tournament money list with $32,315,817 in winnings, but these statistics are hardly reliable as tournament buy-ins are not deducted and sold percentages are not accounted for either.
Negreanu recently shared his results for the past few years on Twitter and his statistics are amazing, he profited more than $10 million in 171 events. The Canadian pro entered 49 live tournaments in 2015 with an average buy-in of $30,880 and he cashed 11 times.
He spent $1,513,125 on buy-ins and won $2,482,479 for a yearly profit of $969,354 with an hourly rate of $3,388. In the last 3 years Negreanu entered 171 tournaments in total, he spent $5,908,934 on buy-ins (average buy-in $34,555) and won $15,969,992.
This means he profited $10,061,058 for an hourly of $6,426. His $8,288,001 score in the 2014 $1 millio buy-in WSOP Big One accounts for a big part of his winnings but his 2015 season is very impressive on its own aswell.
