Opening Flight of RunGood Poker Series Tulsa $600 Main Event Set to Kick Off
Welcome to Day 1a of the RGPS Tulsa $600 Main Event from the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino Tulsa. Friday’s 6 p.m. flight is the first of three opening flights, with two more running Saturday at noon and 6 p.m. local time, with a champion being crowned on Day 2 Sunday.
The Main Event comes with a $100,000 guarantee, and along with first prize money and a prestigious RunGood Contenders Series ring, the champion will receive a prize package that includes a trip to Las Vegas and a seat in the RunGood Pro-Am to be held at the PokerGO studio in December.
Players will start their day with 30,000 chips and blind levels of 100/200 with a 200 big blind ante. Levels will last 30 minutes with 15-minute breaks after levels four and eight and 10-minute breaks after every fourth level after that.
Play will continue until 12.5% of the field remains, with those players making the money and advancing to Day 2 Sunday at noon local time. Players will have the option to enter subsequent flights in hopes of building a bigger stack. Those taking more than one stack to Day 2 will forfeit their smaller stacks and receive a min-cash for those flights.
Registration for all opening flights will conclude at the start of level 9 with unlimited reentries available until registration closes.
