Jacob Seale is a familiar face at RunGood Poker Series stops. He's got $308,048 in career tournament winnings.
Seale has two second-place finishes in RGPS events (Bossier City 2018, Kansas City 2019) and several more cashes in various RGPS events.
He has actually cashed in a main event at every RGPS stop except for Downstream. So a cash here will give him the RGPS cycle.

Shawn Roberts is in the field. He's got $1,146,292 in career tournament winnings and his four career second-place finishes are the four largest scores of his career.
He has one RunGood Poker Series cash from his 13th place finish in the Downstream main event in December 2018. He's cashed several times at this casino but only has the one RGPS cash.
Roberts has 18 top 8 finishes in his career with six tournament wins all over the midwest. He's a force to be reckoned with and should be a familiar face to any opponent who is paying attention to the tournament circuit in the area.
