Tyson Apostol, winner of Survivor: Blood vs Water, is no stranger to Run It Up Reno, and the Utah native has shown considerable chops in his treks here, with a runner-up performance at the Run It Up Reno V $1,100 Thursday Thrilla Bounty tourney for $11,555. Apostol has taken part in Survivor Watch parties here at Peppermill Reno in the past, and we expect to see him at this year's watch party, which takes place on Wednesday, October 16th at 8 pm at the Sorrento Room.
Also jumping in the field is Midwest grinder Jerod Smith, who is taking some time off from mashing the WSOP Circuit to take a crack at Run It Up Reno fame and fortune. Smith, who nabbed the WSOPC Ameristar St. Charles Casino Championship for entry into the 2020 WSOPC Global Championship, will be here for both the Mini Main event and the Main Event, and we'll be keeping tabs on the duo as the day progesses.
