RunGood Poker Series Returns to Tulsa for Debut of 2026 Passport Season

The RunGood Poker Series returns to Oklahoma here at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tulsa to kick off the first stop of the 2026 Passport Season tour. The $800 Main Event features three Day 1 starting flights taking place over two days, with Day 1a starting at 6:00 p.m. local time. Players who advance from each flight will combine and return for Day 2 on Sunday, January 25, where the winner will take home the cash and the coveted RGPS ring.

The last time the RGPS made a stop in Tulsa was back in October for the 2025 Grand Prix Series, where the main event generated a whopping $328,300 prize pool. After his travel plans fell through, Nicholas Burris decided to head to Tulsa after a friend reminded him about the tournament. It proved to be a fruitful decision, as he topped a field of 469 entries to earn a payday of $65,435, along with his second RGPS ring.

2025 RGPS Grand Prix Tulsa Main Event Final Table Results

Place	Player	Country	Prize (USD)
1	Nicholas Burris	United States	$65,435
2	Dexter Wise	United States	$43,627
3	Wesley Jones	United States	$32,627
4	John Heckenkamp	United States	$24,104
5	Bobby Randolph	United States	$18,190
6	Mika Evans	United States	$13,869
7	Freeman Allen	United States	$10,684
8	Terry Harrell	United States	$8,318
9	Jon Kreder	United States	$6,544

Players will begin each starting flight with 30,000 in chips and blinds will begin at 100/200 with a 200 big blind ante. Blinds will be 30 minutes in length during the open registration period (Levels 1-8) and will increase to 40 minutes after late registration closes (Level 9 and beyond). At the completion of Level 8, players may forfeit their stack and reenter for $800.

Should a player choose to play multiple Day 1 flights, only the highest qualifying stack will be permitted to continue to Day 2. Any lower stack(s) will be removed from play at the start of Day 2 and receive a min-cash.

Play for Day 1 flights will conclude once 12.5% of the field (rounded down) remains and those who bag will be in the money. Day 2 will then start at the earliest blind level of the three flights on Sunday, January 25, where the event will play down to a winner.
