Daniel Dvoress secured his third EPT Paris title by winning the €25,000 Super High Roller Warm Up for €286,040 and crossed the $47 million mark in lifetime earnings.

Canadian poker icon Daniel Dvoress has kick-started his 2026 season with a dominant performance at EPT Paris. After a two-month hiatus, Dvoress returned to the felt to capture the €25,000 Super High Roller Warm Up title, securing €286,040.

This latest victory marks his third "Spadie" trophy won in the French capital, reinforcing his reputation as one of the most consistent high-stakes players in the world.

With this win, Dvoress has officially surpassed $47 million in total live earnings, maintaining his position as the second-highest-ranked Canadian on the all-time money list.

Dvoress dominated the EPT Paris Super High Roller Warm Up, outlasting an elite international field.

The victory highlights the intense skill level at European festivals and underscores how PokerStars structures high buy-in events to balance professional strategy with massive prize pools.

In a recent interview, Dvoress attributed his longevity to "trusting the process" rather than focusing solely on monetary results.

Despite cashing for over $6 million annually for four consecutive years, he remains humble, prioritizing sound decision-making over variance-heavy goals.

With a packed 2026 schedule featuring stops in Jeju, Monte Carlo, and Montenegro, Dvoress is well-positioned for another career-defining year on the global circuit.
