Level 16 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Travis Fujisaka
Travis Fujisaka

The final flight of the Rungood Poker Series Graton has come to its conclusion. The final flight brought the total number of entries up to 773, beating the guarantee and seeing a total prize pool of $541,100. Each of the 97 players have locked up a piece of that prize pool, with 25 of them coming from this flight.

Leading the way of the whole tournament is Michael Bell, who bagged 773,000. Bell is making his RGPS debut, and certainly landed with quite a splash. Multiple massive pots went his way as the night went on, including three where he held pocket queens and it held. Bell will be looking to take his massive stack onto his first RGPS title.

Also finding a bag were Travis Fujisaka (350,000), who ended up bursting the bubble, Rungood Ambassador Julie Cornelius (166,000), and James Palmer (160,000), each one of them already guaranteed a piece of the massive prize pool, but with sights set higher.

Not all could find fortune today. Many were sent to the rail to join the likes of Papa Karn, Ronny Gil, Taylor Pollard, Bob Mather, Allen Kessler, and Rungood Ambassadors Ben Ludlow and Terrance Reid. They will have one final chance this season at Kansas City to try to take home a RGPS Main Event title.

Play ended with 27:13, left on the clock in Level 16 with blinds at 5,000/10,000 with a 10,000 big blind ante. This flight was the earliest ending flight and will be the time the other players return to tomorrow. The blinds will be upped to 40-minute levels.

Stay tuned to PokerNews for all updates on The Rungood Poker Series.

Travis Fujisaka Sends One of Three Home On The Bubble

Level 16 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Travis Fujisaka raised to 24,000 from the hijack, then called his opponent who jammed for 49,000 from the small blind while all others folded.

Opponent: JJ All in
Travis Fujisaka: QJ

The board ran out 43108Q and the queen on the end ensured Fujisaka the pot, while the player became one of the three bubble boys as hand for hand was skipped as only 25 players remained.
