Big Bounties and a New Ring for Eason
It’s already been quite a series at Palace Poker for Shannon Eason, who has collected some impressive results and pulled a pair of massive bounties last weekend.
“I played Flight 1a for the [PokerNews] PowerStack Mystery Bounty and made it to Day 2,” Eason shared with PokerNews. “So I came back on Sunday and I pulled three bounties. The first bounty I pulled out of the hopper was the $10,000. I waited until later to pull out my last two. The second one was $300, and the last one was the $7,500.”
Eason secured the two top bounty prizes, going on to finish in tenth place to add more winnings for the week. But she wasn’t done there.
“It was a really good day there and then yesterday morning, I won the Black Chip Bounty. That was a really fun event to play, and I ended up being a heads up with another lady, which was awesome for me.”
The victory gave Eason her first RGPS ring, playing in her very first tournament series.
“That's my first ring ever. I was ecstatic. I was like, holy crap, I just want a ring, because I was ring hunting the entire time and I came in tenth at the PowerStack, so that was just icing on the cake that I made it all the way through. I sat back and waited and then attacked on the final table, which really did me well.”
Eason was left with great memories for the week, sharing her thoughts on the RunGood Poker Series that won’t be her last.
“I really like the way it is organized, it's been organized really well. The structures are great.
They are very communicative, which I, as a player, love, and they're explaining everything all the way down.”
“I'm on the lookout for different series. I'm going to Vegas in October, I'm going to play some tournaments out there when my parents go to the NASCAR race, so. I'm looking forward to it.”
