Garrett Wins Two in a Row

Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

While Run Good Pro Grant Hinkle was making his rounds and saying goodbye, Ray Henson, another Run Good Pro raised from middle position.

He made it 6,000 to go and Nolan Garrett called in position.

The flop came {j-Clubs}{9-Spades}{7-Spades} and Henson bet 6,000. Garrett called.

The turn was the {9-Diamonds}, pairing the board. Henson bet again, making it 10,000 to go. Garrett called again.

The river was the {2-Hearts} and Henson bet 10,000 again. This time Garrett raised all in for about 50,000 total. Henson folded.

Garrett then opened the next hand from middle position and both Nick Stille and Jerry Moore called from the blinds.

The flop was {q-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{2-Clubs} and Stille and Moore checked to Garrett who bet 6,000. Stille was the lone caller.

Both players checked the {a-Clubs} on the turn and Stille bet 8,000 when the {7-Hearts} hit the river.

Garrett raised the river again, making it 28,000 to go and Stille folded.

Berthelsen Keeps the Pressue On

Level 13 : 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante

Kevin Berthelsen has been pretty active so far today. He's already added 70,000 to his Day 2 starting stack.

He opened to 10,500 and Ray Rife three-bet to 35,000 from the big blind. Berthelsen called.

The flop came all hearts, {q-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{2-Hearts} and Rife checked. Berthelsen moved all in with a stack that had Rife covered, but just barely. Rife didn't wait too long to fold and Berthelsen stacked even more chips.

The first stop of the Run Good Poker Series Showbound season is coming to a close as Day 2 of the Main Event in Council Bluffs is set to kick off in a little under an hour.

Jovan Sudar leads the way with a whopping 348,500 and is 100,000 in front of all but two of the remaining players. Several of the Run Good Ambassadors made it through, with Julie Cornelius being the last to earn her seat early this morning when she bagged 43,500 in Day 1c.

Thadd Wolf (312,500), Andy Van Blair (266,000), Blair Hinkle (243,500), and Shane Fuller (236,500) round out the top five to start play today.

The top 45 players will earn a min-cash of $920 and the winner will take home the RGPS Showbound trophy and $44,767.

Play restarts at noon and the Day 2 levels will extend to 45 minutes, up from 30 on the starting flights. All the players who make the final table will earn a seat in a special end-of-season Showbound satellite.

The satellite will be played at Run Good's final stop of the season in Tulsa. Two winners will earn a seat to a $5,000 sit and go and a trip to Vegas to play on Poker After Dark.

PokerNews will be bringing you photos and updates from the Horseshoe Council Bluffs as the RGPS Main Event plays to a winner.
