$575 Main Event
Day 1bc Started
The final two starting flights for the RunGood Poker Series Oklahoma City main event at Grand Casino and Resort are today. The first flight starts at noon and the second at 7 p.m.
There will be more chances for players to qualify through satellites early in the afternoon and then, the players will have their final shot to qualify for Day 2 when Day 1C registration closes around 11:30 p.m.
The players in each flight will start with 20,000 chips and play 12 30-minute levels before bagging. The Day 1C flight bagged only 11 players from the 83-person field and, so far, the overall chip leader with Jaymie Jordan.
With several of the satellite winners from Friday expected in the field today, there should be plenty more chips — enough to give anyone a shot at topping Jordan's 342,800.
This is the second stop on the Game 7 RGPS season and every player who wins an event this season will win a championship ring made by Signature Rings.
Several of the RunGood family and players from poker leagues and rooms around the area have made the trip and a few of those faces have already taken home their championship rings, while others have gotten painfully close.
