Before this past week passed, there were just 15 players who had made more than $8 million in PocketFives tracked scores over the course of the career. Lead of course by recent WSOP bracelet winner Chris Moorman with a little bit more than $14,000,000 in earnings. This week another player did just enough to join this exclusive club.

Nicholas ’rounder63’ Carrillo passed the $8 million thanks to a number of smaller scores over the past week. While some of the others in the $8 million club have gotten there with numerous big scores, Carrillo has made it happen through sheer volume. His 13,563 career cashes are the most out of anybody in the top 100 on the all-time earnings list. The American grinder now calls Costa Rica home.

Three other players hit milestones on the earnings front this week. Russian ‘Flat’ hit $3,000,000, Brazilian Felipe ‘felipesalgado30’ Salgado passed $2,000,000 while England’s ‘Ckb’ is now one of 1,661 players who have won at least $1,000,000 over the course of their career.

That huge score also came with a boat load of PLB points – 1084.34 to be exact.
