Chino Rheem Leads 2025 PGT Bounty Blitz Event #4: $5,100 No-Limit Hold'em PKO Final Table

The 2025 PGT Bounty Blitz continued from the PokerGO Studio at ARIA Resort & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada, with Event #4: $5,100 No-Limit Hold'em PKO. The tournament drew 36 entries, and Chino Rheem leads the final six players.

Rheem held one of the larger stacks for much of the evening and finished as the overnight chip leader with just over one-quarter of the chips in play. Rheem leads a final table that includes Chris Hunichen, Mike Zulker, Andrew Kelsall, Jeremy Becker, and Alex Condon. These six players will return already guaranteed $8,600, while all eyes will be on the $28,100 first-place prize in addition to the bounties, 54 PGT points, and the Event #4 Bounty Blitz trophy.

The field of 36 entrants created a prize pool of $180,000, including $72,000 in bounties, and the final six players earned a piece of the regular prize pool. In this progressive bounty format, when you eliminate another player, you receive half of their bounty as a cash prize, while the other half goes towards increasing your own bounty.

Andrew Lichtenberger was eliminated in eighth place and finished just before the money again after bubbling Event #3. The seven remaining players then converged on a single table, and Becker picked up aces to leave Christian Roberts as the short stack. After an orbit, Roberts was committed in the big blind with king-jack against pocket jacks and failed to improve. He was eliminated on the money bubble in seventh place, while the six remaining players bagged to return for the streamed final table.
