Ram Vaswani

Ram Vaswani, 'Crazy Horse', is 47th on the British all-time money list with $3,576,730 recorded — and no single result larger than $231,413.

The numbers, as the database holds them

The Hendon Mob records $3,576,730 in live tournament earnings for Vaswani, a best live cash of $231,413, and a residence of London. He stands 821st on the global all-time money list; his best-ever position was 63rd. His player number is 3, which makes his entry one of the first the database ever created.

A total with no spike in it

Most players on this part of the British list owe forty to fifty per cent of their career figure to a single result. Vaswani's largest cash is 6.5 per cent of his. Reaching three and a half million dollars that way means a very large number of cashes over a very long period — the opposite profile to a high-roller specialist.

63rd to 821st without losing a penny

The gap between a best-ever rank of 63rd and a current 821st is the clearest illustration available of what buy-in inflation does to an all-time list. An all-time money total can only rise, so a fall of that size is entirely the work of other players passing by. It is also why these lists reward reading alongside a form-based measure rather than on their own.
