Chad Eveslage Wins 2025 PGT $1,000,000 Championship
With the conclusion of the PGT Last Chance series, the 2025 PGT season is behind us. Finishing atop the season-long PGT leaderboard with 3,134 PGT points was Alex Foxen, and he was crowned the 2025 PGT Player of the Year.
Foxen finished the season with 27 cashes for $6,277,148 in earnings. He also won five PGT titles, bringing his career tally to 12. During the 2025 PGT season, Foxen became the first player to reach the milestones of 100 PGT cashes and 10,000 PGT points. Foxen wins a $50,000 bonus prize in recognition of his PGT Player of the Year achievement, and he'll also begin the prestigious PGT $1,000,000 Championship event with the largest starting stack.
Foxen's 2025 campaign began with two cashes at the PokerGO Cup before he was in contention for the PGT PLO Series champion after five cashes, including a win, two runner-up finishes, and a third-place finish, but eventually lost to Jesse Lonis by 29 points. Foxen earned his second title of the year at the U.S. Poker Open, and at the WSOP, he cashed eight times and made two final tables. His largest PGT points result would be earned at the WSOP when he finished runner-up in the $250,000 Super High Roller.
The Poker Masters saw Foxen win Event #6 and finish runner-up in Event #8. He then earned his fourth PGT title of the year at the PGT PLO Series II, where he cashed five times. Foxen's dominance throughout 2025 would be overthrown by Sam Soverel, who cashed three times at PGT Last Chance but was unavailable to deliver the final blow. In the final event of the season, after Soverel exited early, the Player of the Year race was between Foxen and Chino Rheem. Rheem made a late surge during PGT Last Chance with four cashes, but he needed his fourth and final to be a victory to snatch Player of the Year honors at the midnight hour. Rheem exited in eighth-place, and Foxen would need to finish among the final four to surge back ahead of Soverel.
Foxen would do it in style and claimed his fifth PGT title of the season to thrust ahead of Soverel and be crowned the 2025 PGT Player of the Year courtesy of his PGT Last Chance Event #6 victory.
