Michael Wang Leads PGT Championship Final Table, Negreanu Remains
The PokerGO Tour (PGT) was launched in 2021 to give high-stakes poker players more opportunities to compete in high-stakes tournaments, while also competing on a year-long leaderboard to determine who would be crowned the PGT Player of the Year.
With five seasons now concluded on the PGT, and the sixth set to begin next week with PGT Kickoff, it's time to take a look back on the five-year history of the PGT and see where players rank on a number of different categories.

| 1st | Sam Soverel | 13 | 0 | 0 (2) | 2 | 0 |
| T-2nd | Alex Foxen | 12 | 0 | 2* | 2 | 2 |
| T-2nd | Stephen Chidwick | 12 | 0 | 2 | 1 (4) | 0 |
| 4th | Daniel Negreanu | 11 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 2 |
| T-5th | Jeremy Ausmus | 8 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 1 |

Heading into the 2025 PGT season, Stephen Chidwick was the all-time leader in PGT titles with 10. Chidwick added two during the 2025 PGT season, but Sam Soverel added four to move to the top with 13, and 2025 PGT Player of the Year Alex Foxen won five to move into a tie with Chidwick.
Daniel Negreanu claimed two wins in the 2025 PGT season and sits fourth overall, while Chino Rheem won five PGT titles in the 2025 PGT season and is tied in fifth with Jeremy Ausmus, Chris Brewer, Sean Perry, Justin Bonomo, and Michael Addamo with eight career PGT titles. On the outside with seven wins are Cary Katz, Sean Winter, Nick Schulman, Andrew Lichtenberger, Isaac Haxton, David Peters, Nick Petrangelo, and 2025 PGT $1,000,000 Championship winner Chad Eveslage.
Although wins will always be the benchmark for poker players, a deeper dive into close calls shows some interesting what-ifs. Soverel has 17 runner-up finishes, and Foxen has 16. Chidwick has 18 bronze medal finishes, while Foxen and Cary Katz have 16.
Top 10 PGT Points, Cashes, and Final Tables

| 1st | Alex Foxen | 10,530 | Alex Foxen | 108 | Alex Foxen | 77 |
| 2nd | Stephen Chidwick | 10,425 | Sam Soverel | 107 | Stephen Chidwick | 71 |
| 3rd | Sam Soverel | 9,802 | Jeremy Ausmus | 105 | Jeremy Ausmus | 70 |
| 4th | Jeremy Ausmus | 9,051 | Sean Winter | 100 | Sam Soverel | 68 |
| 5th | Daniel Negreanu | 8,685 | Stephen Chidwick | 99 | Sean Winter | 66 |
| 6th | Sean Winter | 8,641 | Daniel Negreanu | 99 | Daniel Negreanu | 60 |

Only two players have eclipsed 10,000 PGT points, but Alex Foxen and Stephen Chidwick won't be the only members in the 10,000 points club for too long. Sam Soverel is just one cash away from joining them, while 2024 PGT Player of the Year Jeremy Ausmus will likely achieve this milestone in the latter part of the 2026 PGT season. If Daniel Negreanu can repeat his 2025 PGT season, he will also likely reach the 10,000-point milestone near the end of the 2026 PGT season.
Four players have reached 100 PGT cashes, all of these occuring in the last quarter of 2025. Foxen achieved his 100th cash during the Poker Masters, while Soverel earned his at NAPT Las Vegas. Ausmus also earned his at NAPT Las Vegas, while Sean Winter earned his at WSOP Paradise. Both Chidwick and Negreanu are tied on 99, while Nick Schulman sits on 92. Cary Katz is eighth overall on 88 PGT cashes, and all four of these players will likely achieve the 100 PGT cash milestone this season.
Foxen is on top of yet another category, this time PGT final tables with 77. He is six ahead of Chidwick, who has 71, while Ausmus has 70. Chino Rheem, Erik Seidel, and Seth Davies are all on the fringe of the Top 10 with 41 or 40 each.
