The latest PokerAtlas Tour stop delivered exciting action across the felt, and when the series concluded, Joe Firova emerged as the overall leaderboard champion, outpacing a highly competitive field of regulars and new faces alike.

Consistency Rewarded

Firova captured the top spot with four cashes totaling 106 points, proving that consistent deep runs are just as valuable as a single big victory. His ability to navigate fields and stack valuable points made him the clear winner by the end of the series.

Tight Race for the Podium

It was far from a runaway, however. Jiayi Yao put together an impressive six cashes — the most of any player on the list — and finished just seven points behind Firova with 99 points. Patrick Christensen rounded out the top three with five cashes and 80 points, edging just ahead of Dusti Smith (79 points) and Rajashekar Reddy Varakala (78 points) in one of the closest leaderboard finishes to date.

With the leaderboard champion title secured, Joe Firova not only claims bragging rights but also cements himself as one of the most consistent performers on the PokerAtlas Tour. The narrow margins separating the top five ensure that the next series will be even more competitive as players look to climb the ranks and challenge for the top spot.
