Las Vegas is about to settle into a month-long run of serious high-stakes poker, with the PokerGO Studio at ARIA Resort & Casino hosting four major PokerGO Tour series between late September and October.
The action begins Thursday, September 24, with the PGT PLO Series. The opening event is a $5,300 Pot-Limit Omaha tournament starting at 7 p.m. local time, the first of eight PLO events on the schedule.
Buy-ins rise quickly from there.
After a second $5,300 event, the series moves into $10,500 territory before reaching $15,700 events and finally the $26,000 PLO Championship on October 2. The schedule also includes a Quattro Bounty and a Mystery Bounty event.
For players looking for a cheaper route into the series, $560 milestone satellites are being held in the ARIA Poker Room.
The PLO Series is only the beginning.
After a short break, the PokerGO Studio will host Super High Roller Bowl PLO IV from October 5-7. The buy-in is $103,000, putting some of the biggest names in high-stakes PLO back around the same table in Las Vegas.
Then the cards switch to no-limit hold'em.
Super High Roller Bowl XI begins October 8 with another $103,000 buy-in. Three additional $26,000 Super High Roller Series events are positioned around the two Super High Roller Bowls, including an NLH/PLO mixed event on October 6 and two no-limit hold'em events on October 9 and 10.
There will be little downtime before Poker Masters takes over the studio on October 12.
The 2026 Poker Masters schedule features 10 no-limit hold'em tournaments running through October 23, with buy-ins ranging from $10,500 to $51,000. The series closes with the $51,000 Poker Masters Championship.
As usual, there is more than prize money at stake. The Poker Masters leaderboard winner will take home the Purple Jacket along with a $25,000 PGT Passport.
The PGT PLO Series has its own leaderboard incentive, with the overall winner receiving a $10,000 PGT Passport.
The result is one of the most concentrated stretches of high-stakes tournament poker on the Las Vegas calendar: eight PLO events, two $103,000 Super High Roller Bowls, three additional $26,000 high rollers and a full Poker Masters series, all based at the PokerGO Studio at ARIA.
For players chasing the 2026 PGT leaderboard, the next month could also prove decisive. With so many points available in a relatively short period, a strong run at ARIA could dramatically change the standings before the season-ending PGT Championship.
For everyone else, it means nearly a month of high-stakes poker from Las Vegas, with PokerGO scheduled to livestream selected events from the studio.
The first cards go in the air September 24.
