While PokerNews is only live reporting the RGPS Tunica Main Event, it's not the only tournament that's taken place at the stop. A series of side events have taken place all week long including Event #4: $300 Pot-Limit Omaha (PLO), a tournament that attracted 80 entries and offered up a $21,040 prize pool.

Coming out on top was Brent Harrington, a familiar face in the poker world and especially on the RGPS. Harrington is a long-time poker reporter and has live reported many RGPS tournaments over the years. The one-time co-host of the PokerNews Podcast earned $6,838 for the victory, which was a nice bonus before he begins live reporting the RGPS Tunica Main Event.

Grinder Makes First RunGood Poker Series Stop

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Hamid Izadi
Hamid Izadi

Hamid Izadi has earned $693,595 and not a single dollar has come from a RunGood Poker Series stop. He's looking to change that here at the Horseshoe in Tunica in his first-ever RunGood event.

The two-time WSOP circuit ring winner has 29 top-five finishes on 142 results. He was convinced to visit this RunGood stop as part of his playing schedule after RunGood Ambassadors Chris Conrad and Dan Lowery talked it up during in Cherokee, NC.

Izadi lives in Georgia and travels to many poker tournaments all over the country and now has added the RGPS to his list of tournament series that he's traveled too.

Tyler Burke Shoves

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

The board read {6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{a-Hearts} and the first player to act checked to Tyler Burke.

There was a little more than 12,000 in the pot and Burke bet 8,000. His opponent check-raised to 16,000.

Burke took a moment. He had about 60,000 left and had his opponent covered.

He shoved all-in and his opponent didn't take too long to fold and give the pot to Burke.

Seale led for 2,000. Keathley quickly made it 4,000. Seale called.

The turn was the {9-Spades} and both players checked.

The river was the {4-Diamonds} and Seale checked.

"Let me check my kicker," Keathley said.

"What's your kicker?" Seale asked.

"Better than yours."

Keathley checked.

"I got a king," Seale said.

"I got an ace!" Keathley said tabling {a-}{7-}.
