The Run It Up Reno IX $600 Main Event Begins at Noon
The Run It Up Reno IX $600 Main Event is here! The ninth chapter of the Run It Reno series begins its climax today, as Day 1a begins at noon at the Peppermill Resort in Reno, Nevada.
Day 1a is the first of two opening day flights in this $300,000 guaranteed tournament. Players will start with 30,000 starting chips and play through 14 40-minute levels today, with 15-minute breaks after every three levels, and a 60-minute dinner break after Level 9. The blinds and antes start at 100/100/100, going up to 2,000/4,000/4,000 by the end of Level 14. Play will go for fourteen levels or until 16% of the field remains, whichever comes first.
Some of the names that could show up for the Main Event include Run It Up founder Jason Somerville, along with RIU ambassadors Andrew Neeme, Arlie Shaban, and Ricky “ratedGTO” Guan.
Other players who have been in the mix in earlier events at Run It Up Reno IX include Brad Owen, Drew Gonzalez, Jimmy
Cappucci, Jesse Sylvia and Loren Klein.
The defending champion in this event, Dan O’Brien, has been on hand at the Peppermill Resort over the past week. O’Brien topped a field of 629 entries in April at Run It Up Reno VIII, taking home a first-place prize of $46,681. O’Brien topped Klein in the heads-up battle, and it’s a good bet that both will be in action in one of the opening day flights of the Main Event.
With the 629 entries, the previous installment of the Main Event ended up awarding a total prize pool of $329,471.
