Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

The RunGood Poker series’ final stop of the season saw a total of 150 players come out to play the last flight of the $1,100 Main Event. The total number for the tournament entrants is 477 which brings the prizepool to $462,690, beating the guarantee.

Leading the way is Ryan Ramsdell, who bagged up 759,000 which was good for the overall tournament chip lead. Ramsdell has been a regular for RGPS stops dating back five years. He has been a force on the tournament circuit all around the country, with $211,534 in lifetime earnings and cashes all around, from Las Vegas to Aruba. Earlier this week, he ended up in second place in the $250 series opener for $6,301. Yesterday he secured a minimum cash with a stack of 83,000, and has now exceeded that chip count number over sevenfold.

Others who bagged included Jesse Jones (616,000), Justin Dreilen (316,000), Keith Morrell (446,000), and Thomas Houston (71,000). Each one of them will be looking for their first RGPS Main Event title.

Day 1c Top Ten Chip Counts

Place	Player	Chip Counts
1	Ryan Ramsdell	759,000
2	Jesse Jones	616,000

8	Justin Gish	200,000
9	Rosmel Munoz	186,000
10	Ricky McGown	167,000

Defending champion William McCracken was unfortunate enough to hit the rail. He was joined by others like RGPS Kansas City Main Event Champion Andre Allen, Chris Belcher, Jeffrey Copeland, RGPS St. Louis Main Event champion Keith Heine, Daniel “Donk” Hughes, Taylor Howard, and WSOP bracelet winner Michael Lech. They will each have ample opportunity to fire tomorrow’s flights in the hopes of bagging a shot.

Play ended with 14:20 left in play on Level 14 in Day 1b, with blinds at 3,000/6,000 and a 6,000 big blind ante. Play will return to this level on Sunday, May 19th at 12:00.

Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Level 14 Blinds: 3,000/6,000, 6,000 Ante

Justin Dreiling had raised to 12,000 from the hijack which prompted a player on the button to move all in for 65,000 and Dreiling called.

Opponent: A♥J♥ All in
Justin Dreiling: 9♣9♦

The flop of K♠10♥8♣ provided a straight draw for the button player, while the turn 4♥ provided even more outs in the form of a flush draw. The river 8♠ changed nothing and the nines held up to give Dreiling the pot.
