2020 RunGood Poker Series Horseshoe Tunica
$575 Main Event
Day: 1a
RGPS Tunica Main Event Kicks Off Friday at 7 p.m.
The fourth stop of the RunGood Poker Series All-Stars season at Horseshoe Tunica has been a blast so far and now it's time for the main event.
This season, RGPS has teamed up once again with PokerGO to bring the All-Stars season to life. All season long players will compete for an invitation to the All-Stars tournament to be held in Las Vegas in December at the PokerGO studio.
The main event winner from each stop, and the casino champion points leader from each stop will earn a seat.
The casino champion race is pretty packed toward the top of the standinds with WSOP Main Event Champion Chris Moneymaker and John Holley tied for the top spot so far heading into main event weekend.
Jacob Seale has found himself some points this week as well and will be looking for another solid main event performance to try and overtake the top spot in the race. He fell two points short of the crown at RGPS Downstream, but has been a consistent face deep in RGPS main events over the past year. Expect Seale to challenge for the top spot.
Many other worth challengers for both the main event title and casino champion crown will be in the field. Sam Washburn, who already booked the casino champion spot for Downstream and has an RGPS main event under his belt, will be in the field at his home casino where he has won two WSOP circuit main event rings.
The field will be big, as the RGPS Tunica is always the largest field on the tour.
The $100,000 Guarantee main event will have three starting flights (One Friday, Two Saturday) and give players 12 30-minute levels to try and find a bag for Day 2. Day 2 will resume Sunday at noon (after Daylight Savings time).
Players start with 20,000 chips and registration will remain open for each flight until the start of level nine.
