Heading out west for the second stop of the year, the RunGood Poker Series has made its way to the second stop of the 2025 season. Here at Jamul Casino in San Diego, California, a total of 12 ring events have been scheduled to play until completion, with the crown jewel of the stop being the $600 Main Event which has a $150,000 prize pool guarantee.
Last time the series made its home here, it was tournament newcomer Maksim Tatarintsev who would cash for the first time, taking home his first ring and main event title for $36,750. He bested a table that included many California tournament regulars like Thomas Carlin and Michael Collopy. Tatarinstev already has cashed in one of the tournaments this week, and will be looking to defend his title.
