Overview

  • Six $10,000 tournaments run Jan. 5–10 at the PokerGO Studio in Las Vegas, providing the final opportunity to earn leaderboard points.
  • The PGT Championship follows on Jan. 12–13 with a $1 million freeroll for the top 40 on the leaderboard plus Dream Seat winners, paying $500,000 to the champion.
  • Sam Soverel leads the standings after a Super High Roller Bowl podium finish, with Alex Foxen close behind in what coverage describes as a two-player PoY battle.
  • The qualification bubble is razor-thin with Joey Weissman currently at the cutoff on 1,131 points, while notable names such as Jason Koon and Jeremy Ausmus sit outside and need results.
  • Joao Simao’s recent Super High Roller Bowl victory and Terrance Reid’s 900-point WSOP Paradise surge highlight late-season moves that could reshape both entry and seeding, with five Dream Seats available via the Last Chance leaderboard.
