Daniel Negreanu wins PLO tournament on the PokerGO Tour for $265,200

The PokerGO Tour series has prepared PLO tournaments for its players, which have attracted some of the biggest names on the world poker scene. There was also Daniel Negreanu, who became a champion last night. However, Isaac Haxton was not missing from the list of winners either.

For October, the PokerGO Tour (PGT) series has prepared PLO-format tournaments for its poker fans. The PGT PLO Series runs from Oct. 14 to Oct. 22, and will be immediately followed by the $100,000 buy-in Super High Roller Bowl PLO.

On this night, tournament number 6 took place, which had a buy-in of $10,100, an entry count of 104, and a prizepool of $1,040,000. There was a $265,200 prize waiting for the winner and Alex Foxen entered the final table as chipleader. However, he was defeated by Daniel Negreanu in the final heads-up to emerge as the winner. In addition to the prize money, he also won his third PGT title of the year, and his ninth PGT title of his career overall.
