$575 Main Event
Day 2 Started
The final day of the RunGood Poker Series main event at the Tunica Horseshoe begins at noon Sunday. After a week of record-breaking fields, the main event became the biggest RGPS stop ever — offering a first-place prize of $69,521.
Jacob Foley bagged the overall chip lead and will be the leader when the 135 Day 2 players kick things off in a little less than an hour.
The top 67 players will earn a min-cash of $948, so a little more than half the remaining field will walk away with nothing. One player will win the championship ring and the largest-ever prize awarded at a RGPS stop.
It all starts at noon Sunday. Stay tuned to PokerNews.com for photos and updates throughout the day until the first champion of the RGPS Game 7 season is crowned.
