PokerGO Tour Gears Up for Second Half of 2023

Written by Jennifer Newell
Last updated on September 25th, 2023

The PokerGO Tour has grown in just a few years, now to the point that it hosted and/or included 75 high-stakes poker tournaments just through the month of July. The second half of the year will add 47 more, putting the total for the year at 122 tournaments that fall under the PGT umbrella.

There has been a break. After the 2023 World Series of Poker in Las Vegas, poker players had a break from must-play events and the live tournament grind. But now, the action is back and underway with the latest iteration of the Poker Masters at the PokerGO Studio on the Las Vegas Strip.

First Half of PGT 2023

As mentioned, the PokerGO Tour counted 75 tournaments toward its 2023 schedule, some hosted by entities like the World Series of Poker and Wynn Las Vegas. Most, however, were PokerGO-branded series, like the US Poker Open and the PokerGO Cup.

Some of the highlights of the first half of 2023 included:

  • Cary Katz became overall 2023 PokerGO Cup champion
  • Dan Zack was overall PGT Mixed Games leaderboard winner
  • Lautaro Guerra Cabrerizo was crowned PGT PLO Series champion
  • Martin Zamani won overall US Poker Open champion title

After all of those series and the WSOP bracelet events that qualified for PGT points, the standings at the midway point of the year for the PGT Leaderboard were:

  • 1. Dan Weinman with $12.1M earnings (2,300 points)
  • 2. Chris Brewer with $6.6M earnings (1,917 points)
  • 3. Isaac Haxton with $3.25M earnings (1,709 points)
  • 4. Steven Jones with $6.5M earnings (1,700 points)
  • 5. Adam Walton with $4M earnings (1,500 points)

The rest of the top 10 include Cary Katz, Sam Soverel, Jan-Peter Jachtmann, Alex Kulev, and Jeremy Ausmus.

Ready, Set, Play

With September comes the second half of the year, and it is now full speed ahead for the action kicking off with the Poker Masters in September and keeping them busy in Las Vegas until the WSOP Europe in the Czech Republic in November. The year will then round out with WSOP Bahamas events. But the PGT season will run into January, complete with a PGT Last Chance series.

The top 40 players on that leaderboard will all have the opportunity to play the PGT Championship on January 9-10, 2024. They will start with chips corresponding to the number of points they earned throughout the season. And PokerGO is putting up a $1M freeroll prize pool, with $500K of that set for the ultimate winner.
