Matt Waxman Holds Overall Chip Lead Headed Into Day 2 of RGPS "Game 7" Hard Rock Tulsa
It was a busy day at the RunGood Poker Series (RGPS) “Game 7” stop at the Hard Rock Tulsa. The $675 Main Event attracted 130 entries in Flight B and an additional 131 on Flight C. Along with Flight A’s 111 runners it brought the total field up to 372 entries, which means a $223,200 prize pool is on tap.
