The PokerGO Tour Mixed Games series finished up in Las Vegas this week, and thanks to a three-tournament run where he went winner, runner-up, runner-up, Yuri Dzivielevski is the series champion.
He won his first PGT Cup for earning enough points to become the series champion, joining Dan Zack (2023), Max Hoffman (2024), and Chino Rheem (2023, 2025) as a PGT Mixed Games champion.
Going into the last three events, Dzivielevski, a Brazilian pro, had yet to cash in the series. That changed in Event #5, the 15,200 Big Bet Mix that attracted 53 entrants, which he won for $262,350. It was his first PGT title.
A day later, he would make another deep run in the $15,200 Dealer’s Choice event that brought in 57 entrants. This time, he’d fall to Qinghai Pan, who earned enough points in the series to finish second to Dzivielevski. The runner-up finish was good for $171,000.
Dzivielevski did the same thing in the series final, the $25,300 10-Game Championship that brought in a record-breaking 64 entrants, finishing second to Brian Rast for another $312,000. The last two cashes pushed Dzivielevski’s lifetime earning over the $10 million mark.
