PGT Venetian Las Vegas Classic

There's plenty of action on the horizon in Las Vegas as part of the PokerGO Tour (PGT), including the PGT Bounty Blitz in September that will feature six unique bounty events. It also includes a series outside the PokerGO Studio in the form of the PGT Venetian Las Vegas Classic, which will take place at the Venetian.

The PGT Venetian Las Vegas Classic, the tenth stop of the PGT season, will take place Sept. 11-16 and will culminate with a $3,300 buy-in No-Limit Hold'em Main Event featuring a $1 million guaranteed prize pool, according to PokerGO.

Action at the Venetian, which is home to one of the biggest and most popular poker rooms in Las Vegas, will kick off on Sept. 11 with the first of three starting flights of the Main Event.

The event will see players starting with 40,000 chips and levels lasting 40 minutes each. After two more starting flights, the event will play down to a winner on Day 2 on Sept. 14, eventually awarding the biggest slice of the $1 million guaranteed prize pool.

The series at the Venetian will also feature three $5,300 buy-in High Rollers, the first of which kicks off on Sept. 14 with starting stacks of 125,000 and levels lasting 30 minutes each. Action will wrap up with $5,300 NLH High Roller #3 on Sept. 16.

There are also multiple satellite opportunities for players looking to play the Main Event on a budget. Three $380 buy-in satellites are scheduled and are each guaranteed to award at least two seats.

The Venetian Classic series is the perfect opportunity for players to win PGT points for a chance to qualify for the season-ending 2025 PGT $1,000,000 Championship, which will award $500,000 to the eventual winner.
