The PokerGO Tour (PGT) has set the dates for its sixth installment of the PGT Pot-Limit Omaha (PLO) Series. It will run from October 14-25 and be held inside the PokerGO Studio at Aria Resort and Casino in Las Vegas.
The series will once again feature PLO events exclusively, with a total of 10 tournaments running over 12 days. The buy-ins, like most PGT events, are on the higher side, ranging from $5,100 to the $25,200 buy-in championship event to cap off the series.
It provides players a rare chance to focus entirely on PLO tournaments for an extended period without any No-Limit Hold’em tournaments thrown in to disrupt the flow. It often attracts some of the best PLO specialists in the world thanks to its higher buy-ins.
The series schedule features a mix of regular PLO and bounty events, with both progressive bounties and mystery bounties available.
| Date | Game Type | Buy-in |
|---|---|---|
| Oct. 14 | PLO | $5,100 |
| Oct. 15 | PLO Progressive Bounty | $5,100 |
| Oct. 16 | PLO | $5,100 |
| Oct. 17 | PLO | $10,100 |
| Oct. 18 | PLO Progressive Bounty | $10,100 |
| Oct. 20 | PLO | $10,100 |
| Oct. 21 | PLO | $15,100 |
| Oct. 22 | PLO Mystery Bounty | $15,100 |
| Oct. 23 | PLO | $15,100 |
| Oct. 24 | PLO | $25,200 |
Each event will utilize the PGT shot clock, which allows players 20 seconds to act on their hand preflop and 30 seconds after the flop. That will help steer clear of tanking controversies, which remain a hot-button issue in the poker world.
The PGT PLO series is a part of the larger overall 2025 PGT season. Players accumulate points as part of the 2025 PGT leaderboard.
