PGT Mixed Games 2025 continued at the PokerGO Studio from ARIA Resort & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada on Wednesday with Event #2: $5,100 8-Game The tournament drew a field of 148 entries, marking the largest field size in a mixed event on the PGT, surpassing the 130 entries in yesterday's H.O.R.S.E. event and the 89 entries from the 2024 iteration of this event.
Leading the remaining seven players is Fu Wong with 5,600,000, playing in his first event at the PokerGO Studio. He is followed by Tal Avivi and Anthony Arvidson, both of whom are also playing in their first event at the PokerGO Studio. Joining them at the final table are Toby Lewis, Samuel Sternfield, Nick Schulman, and Adam Friedman. These seven players will return on Thursday already guaranteed $29,600. Up top for the winner is the $170,200 first-place prize, 170 PGT points, and the Event #2 trophy.
The record-setting field of 148 entrants created a prize pool of $740,000 and the final 23 players earned a piece of it. Chino Rheem just missed out, busting on the money bubble when his ace-five failed to improve against Sternfied's pocket tens in No-Limit Hold'em.
Ryan Miller (23rd), John Hennigan (22nd), Benny Glaser (21st), Thomas Taylor (20th), and Michael Wolff (19th) were the initial few to fall after the money was reached. Nick Julia (18th), Mike Leah (17th), Alex Livingston (16th), and Brian Rast (15th) were the next to fall, leaving the field at two tables. Chad Eveslage (14th), Dan Zack (13th), Eric Wasserson (12th), Patrick Stacey (11th), Dzmitry Urbanovich (10th), Gabe Ramos (9th), and Johnson Phanyaseng (8th) were the ones that fell short of the final table.
