The Rungood Poker Series has made its return to The Atlantis Casino Resort in Reno, Nevada. This iteration of the series sees a total of nine ring events running from April 23rd-28th.

A total of 110 entrants came out to this iteration of the seniors event, beating out last year’s numbers by one entry. This saw a total of 14 places dividing up the $22,000 Prizepool.

Taking down his very first RGPS ring was Richard Lane who took home a career best score of $6,600. This is Lane’s first RGPS cash and he certainly left an impression by collecting the first ring of the stop. The Tennessee resident brings his overall Hendon Mob total up to $30,000.

He becomes the first player from this stop to receive an invitation to the Dream Seat Invitational at Thunder Valley in November.
