The RunGood Poker Series makes its first stop at the prestigious Borgata Hotel, Casino & Spa in Atlantic City when Day 1a of the $800 RunGood Passport Season Atlantic City begins at 11:15 a.m. local time.
This is the first of four starting flights that will take place over the next two days. Players begin with a 50,000 starting stack, and levels will be 30 minutes. Late registration remains open until the start of Level 13, with unlimited reentries available during the registration period. Each opening flight will conclude once 12.5 percent of the field remains.
Day 1b begins later today at 5:15 p.m., while the last two opening flights are tomorrow. All surviving players then combine for Day 2 on Sunday, March 15, at noon to play down to a champion. A player who bags one flight can still enter subsequent flights, with their smaller stacks being taken out of play at the start of Day 2 in exchange for a min-cash.

The first RGPS stop on the East Coast gambling mecca has already proven to be a big success. There were 981 total entries in the $400 PokerNews PowerStack event earlier in the festival, where Mukul Pahuja ended a two-decade drought at his home casino to capture the $55,165 first prize. Another massive field is expected to gather inside Borgata over the coming days, each trying to make history and take home the RGPS championship ring.
Stay tuned as PokerNews follows all the action throughout the day and provides live updates.
