Awesome, great list. Hope to make the list some day.

The main reason I play DK is for the $$ and the chicks

Allen Staal    $50.00    Clash of Titans

List looks rigged 

[LMDAVE]

The escalation from bottom to top kind of looks like a Texas Hold'em tournament payout

[WCopeland]

On top of the 150, I also won a 50 dollar bounty.

Good list!

[Xermon54]

Nice list, Dave! It must've taken you some to do that list!

I personally didn't win any money. it's the inverse: To pay for all of my Donkey Kong related stuff, it probably cost me 6k+ for the last year.  But still worth it 

[syscrusher]

I also got $100 for beating Tim's RU DK score.

[LMDAVE]

Thanks for the Updates Wes/Ben. Wes do you know what the $50 bounty was for?

Vince, yes this list took a little while, but I have to admit, Chris Psaros' blog had most of the data, so I gave him data credit at the bottom.

I also won 50 from  for the race to 1.1 bet

Missing some NH cash

I'm pretty sure Kyle and I split that $100 bounty because we were a virtual tie (died on the same board, I think). We never did collect the money, but that's another story.

List is a scam.

I don't see $10K each to  and  ...

I'm pretty sure Kyle and I split that $100 bounty because we were a virtual tie (died on the same board, I think). We never did collect the money, but that's another story. 

I didn't want to go there  for all technical and reported purposes, the bounties were won.
