Why Does the PGT Leaderboard Matter?
The 2023 season of the PGT will give the top 40 players an opportunity to compete in the season-ending PGT Championship for a $1,000,000 freeroll. Expanding on the top 21 in 2022, the prize pool has also doubled with the PGT Championship winner receiving $500,000, while the remainder of the prize pool is split via standard tournament payouts among the final table. The player that accumulates the most PGT points in 2022 will be crowned the PGT Player of the Year and receive a $50,000 bonus.
For those that are unable to qualify for the top 40, there are other chances to participate in the PGT Championship. There will be a select group of Dream Seat™ winners that will be awarded via special events and promotions throughout the year. To see how you can be eligible to win a Dream Seat, click here.
What's Next on the PGT?
The 2023 PGT season continues from the PokerGO Studio at ARIA Resort & Casino with the 2023 U.S. Poker Open. Running from March 23 to April 4, the 10-event schedule has buy-ins ranging from $10,000 to the $50,000 finale and will include both No-Limit Hold'em and Pot-Limit Omaha tournaments. The player that accumulates the most PGT points throughout the series will be crowned the U.S. Poker champion and be awarded the Golden Eagle trophy and a $50,000 championship bonus.
The first nine events start at 12 p.m. PT with players allowed two reentries, while the finale begins at 2 p.m. PT with players allowed a single reentry. Players that are in the registration line before the scheduled start time will have their tournament fees waived.
Following the U.S. Poker Open, the next major series part of the PGT is the 2023 World Series of Poker (WSOP). There will be 27 PGT-qualifying events throughout the WSOP that runs from May 30 to July 18.
