The 2025 PGT Last Chance series finalized Championship Freeroll qualification across multiple events, reshaping leaderboards and Dream Seat standings.
The 2025 PokerGO Tour Last Chance series brought the season to its final turning point, deciding Championship Freeroll qualification, Dream Seat allocation, and Player of the Year standings. Across six ranked events, players faced final pressure to secure entry through leaderboard positions or late series momentum.
Last Chance Events
The series opened with Clemen Deng winning the first $10,100 No Limit Holdem event. Deng navigated a final table that included Matthew Wantman, David ODB Baker, Jesse Lonis, Cary Katz, and Phil Hellmuth. The victory delivered immediate PokerGO Tour points and placed Deng inside the early qualification picture.
Patrick Leonard followed with a win in the second $10,100 No Limit Holdem event, earning $315,000 and his second career PokerGO Tour title in Las Vegas. The result mirrored his payout from a previous PGT victory one year earlier.
Leonard’s performance secured his Top 40 position. David Coleman finished second for $195,300, keeping his qualification hopes alive.
Brandon Wilson shifted the series outlook during the third event. Entering outside both primary qualification thresholds, Wilson’s deep run moved him within reach of the Top 40 while establishing a strong lead on the Last Chance leaderboard. This dual path left him positioned to qualify through points or Dream Seat standings.
Event four focused attention on the Dream Seat race. Neil Warren entered the final table short stacked but closed out the win for $315,000 and 315 PGT points.
Although the result kept him outside the Top 40, it placed him near the top of the Last Chance leaderboard with Dream Seat implications heading into the final events.
The fifth tournament delivered Chi Jen Chu’s breakthrough moment. Starting the final table with limited chips, Chu worked through the field and defeated David ODB Baker heads up. The win earned $263,850 and 293 PGT points, marking Chu’s first PokerGO Tour title and placing him directly into Dream Seat contention.
He finished the 2025 season with 3,134 points, 27 cashes totaling $6,277,148, and became the first player to reach 100 PGT cashes and exceed 10,000 career PGT points.
His season concluded with the Player of the Year award and a $50,000 bonus. Brandon Wilson finished second for $149,400, officially securing his Championship Freeroll seat.
Championship Freeroll and Season Conclusion
The $1,000,000 PokerGO Tour Championship Freeroll featured the Top 40 season leaderboard finishers along with 14 Dream Seat qualifiers. Chad Eveslage entered with momentum following his Super High Roller Bowl Mixed Games victory earlier in the year.
Eveslage closed the season by winning the Championship Freeroll and $500,000. He defeated Andrew Lichtenberger heads up, with Lichtenberger earning $200,000 after leading large portions of the event. The final table also included Daniel Negreanu, Michael Wang, Aaron Kupin, and John Riordan.
The 2025 PokerGO Tour Last Chance series delivered a clear and structured path into the Championship Freeroll. From early event results to late leaderboard shifts, the series rewarded consistency, execution, and timely performance, concluding with Chad Eveslage securing the season’s final title.
