After the RunGood Poker Series (RGPS) wraps up the currently underway RGPS Cleveland, it will head south to Mississippi for RGPS Tunica, which will feature a $600 buy-in RGPS Tunica Main Event with a $100,000 guarantee. In addition to the Main Event, RGPS Tunica, which will take place at Horseshoe Tunica Casino Oct. 4-9, will feature a handful of Ring Events, including Guest Bounty and Pot-Limit Omaha events.

$100K Guaranteed Main Event

The $100,000 guaranteed Main Event will feature three starting flights, the first of which will get underway on Oct. 7. The next two flights will both play out the next day and surviving players will return on Oct. 9 for Day 2, which will play down to a winner. For players who don’t want to ante up the $600 buy-in, there will be a number of satellite options, including a $145 Mega Satellite awarding ten seats and a $145 Turbo Satellite awarding five seats.

RGPS Tunica will kick off on Oct. 4 with a $200 Seniors Ring Event available for players ages 50 and older, followed by a $165 Flip and Go Ring Event and a $165 Opening Night Guest Bounty Ring Event later that day. The next day will see two flights of the $250 PokerGO Studio Ticket Ring Event taking place, which will award a seat to the 2022 All-Stars ProAM Event at the PokerGO Studio in December, as well as another Flip and Go event. Other events in the series include a $300 Pot-Limit Omaha Ring Event and a Two Green Chip Bounty Ring Event, both of which will take place on Oct. 6.

RGPS Cleveland Main Event Day 1b Set to Build on Impressive Opening Flight

Jack Cleveland Casino
Jack Cleveland Casino

Welcome to Day 1b of the RunGood Poker Series Cleveland $800 Main Event. Today’s flight is the second of three opening days of the tournament, and if yesterday’s action is an indicator of what’s to come, the Jack Cleveland Casino is in for another incredible day of poker.

Anthony Carbone bagged the biggest stack of Day 1a, earning 500,000 chips to take into Sunday’s Day 2 after winning a massive pot at the end of the night that could have seen Connor Zhu take a nearly 800,000 chip stack to Sunday had his ace-queen not run into Carbone’s aces.

RGPS Cleveland Top Ten Day 1a Chip Counts

RankNameCountryChip Count
1Anthony CarboneUnited States500,000
2Joe GugliottaUnited States457,000
3Shawn GaffneyUnited States427,000
4Kuo PengTaiwan384,000

7Connor ZhuChina256,000
8James PisanoUnited States242,000
9Brent WheelerUnited States242,000
10Keith SchwartzUnited States230,000

Day 1b will get cards in the air at 12:15 p.m. local time with 15 40-minute levels scheduled, however, after the fast and furious action in Day 1a, the alternate ending of 15 percent of the field remaining easily hit early in Level 13. Should today’s field reach its final 15 percent prior to the end of Level 15, that again would be the case.

Players will start their day with 30,000 chips at opening blinds of 100/200 with a 200 big blind ante. Registration will remain open until the start of Level 10 and re-entries are unlimited.

Players will have a 15-minute break after every third level, with a 60-minute dinner break at the end of Level 9.

The tournament has a $250,000 guarantee, and after 186 entries on Day 1a, a similar total in this flight would send the event past that number already, even before Saturday’s final opening flight.

Players who survive Day 1b with a short stack will have the opportunity to play in Day 1c in hopes of accumulating a bigger stack to take to Day 2 instead.

Be sure to stay with PokerNews for live reporting from each day of action until the first-ever RGPS Cleveland Main Event champion is crowned.
