The American player wins more than $450,000 $ with this victory

The flagship tournament of the PGT PLO Series 2025, this $25,200 buy-in event #10 attracted 60 entries, a modest number compared to some of the high rollers at Triton, but far from negligible for such an expensive Pot Limit Omaha event. Like all the tournaments at the festival, held at the PokerGo studios in Las Vegas, this was once again a contest featuring specialists well-versed in the specifics of the four-card Omaha variant, particularly James Collopy, the event's winner.

The American, who had earned $11 million in live cash, defeated Dylan Weissman after a deal that still left $100,000 at stake for the winner. A victory achieved with a touch of luck, as after the two rivals were all-in preflop, Collopy hit what looked like a one-outer to eliminate a rival who consoled himself with $329,633. Third in the event ahead of the formidable Spaniard Lautaro Guerra, Jesse Lonis took home the honorary trophy as winner of the 2025 PGT PLO Series, ahead of Alex Foxen and Chino Rheem.
