Daniel Negreanu Leads 2025 PGT PLO Series Event #3: $5,100 Pot-Limit Omaha Final Table

The 2025 PGT PLO Series continued from the PokerGO Studio at ARIA Resort & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada with Event #3: $5,100 Pot-Limit Omaha. The tournament drew 159 entries and Daniel Negreanu leads the final six players.

Negreanu accumulated throughout the day and won a massive pot to surge into the chip lead late in the evening when he got aces in against aces and made a flush to scoop the pot en route to the top of the overnight counts. The Poker Hall of Famer leads a final table that includes Xiaoxiao Song, Bryce Yockey, Eric Blair, Dylan Weisman, and James Chen. These six players will return already guaranteed $39,750, while all eyes will be on the $182,850 first-place prize, 183 PGT points, and the Event #3 trophy.

The field of 159 entrants created a prize pool of $795,000 and the final 23 players earned a piece of it. Farid Jattin was the unfortunate bubble boy when he ran double-suited queens into double-suited aces and failed to make the best hand. Kamel Mokhammad (23rd), Joao Simao (22nd), Billy Tarango (20th), Josh Arieh (19th), Chino Rheem (17th), Isaac Kempton (12th), and Dylan Linde (11th) were among those to cash in the event.

Jordan Glazer fell in eighth place when he lost his remaining short stack to Negreanu, and the remaining field converged on a single table. Jisup Hwang was the next to go when he was eliminated by Yockey in seventh place, and the six remaining players played out the level before they bagged to return for the streamed final table.

Chen has accomplished an impressive feat by making his third consecutive final table in as many events. He will look to improve upon his third-place finish from Event #1 and fifth-place finish from Event #2. Yockey is at his second final table of the series and Negreanu picked up his second cash of the series, while Song, Blair, and Weisman each notched their first. Billy Tarango added another cash in this event after winning Event #2 earlier in the day and currently sits atop the leaderboard in the race for the PLO Series champion Gold Cup and a $10,000 PGT Passport.
