Destination RunGood: Tulsa Main Event Kicks off Tonight with Day 1a
The RunGood Poker Series kicks off 2024 with its newest season, Destination: RunGood here at Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The series returns tonight for the first of three starting flights for the stop's $800 Main Event. With a championship ring up for grabs alongside the $100,000 guaranteed prize pool, this event will bring out many familiar faces and ring winners from past RGPS seasons, adding to the stop's already fun and family-like atmosphere at the tables.
As with all of the RunGood Main Events, the eventual winner will also win a seat in the invitation-only Dream Seat event that runs at the end of the year. The tournament's eventual winner will then win a seat into the 64-player capped field PokerGo Invitational $1,000,000 guaranteed freeroll, meaning that taking down this event could be a ticket to life-changing money for whoever goes home with the title.
The RGPS Tulsa Main Event defending champion from last October is Tyler Barnes who topped a 499-person field to take down the top prize of $52,692 along with the title and the ring. With a total prize-pool worth $260,000, that event almost tripled the guarantee of $100,000 and that is what is to be expected here this weekend.
Players expected to take their seats and chase a main event title include all-time RGPS ring leader and Player of the Year frontrunner Brian Winter along with RunGood Ambassadors Ashley ‘Pokerface Ash’ Frank, Daniel Lowery, Michael Lech, and Kasey Mills. Shaun Emery, who is ranked second in POY points will also be in the mix, hot on the heels of Winter.
While this is a short list of notable names expected at the tables tonight to kick off the main event, the RunGood Poker Series is known for its community of regulars at all stops and it's safe to say that every table will end up being a family-like atmosphere filled with familiar faces, laughter and big pots.
Day 1a will kick off at 6:00 p.m. CST with a 30,000 starting stack and 30-minute levels, with blinds of 100/200/200. Players will be given a will continue until 12.5% of the field remains, at which point the remaining players bag for the Day 2 session on Sunday.

Wall Battles with Griffin
Livello 2
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
After an open preflop from David Griffin in the cutoff, Brandon Wall three-bet to 4,500 from the small blind and Griffin called.
The flop came out K♣J♥9♦ and both players decided to check to the 2♥ turn.
Wall then tossed out a 5,000 chip and Griffin obliged by doing the same and they went to the 6♦ river.
Wall then shrugged and slid his remaining stack of 5,900 across the line, to which Griffin sighed and tossed his cards into the muck.
