RunGood Tulsa Stop to Feature $100K Guaranteed Main Event Oct. 14-16



The RunGood Poker Series (RGPS) is headed to Oklahoma Oct. 11-16 for RGPS Tulsa, a poker stop that will feature a $600 buy-in Main Event with a $100,000 guarantee.

The RGPS Tulsa stop, taking place at Hard Rock Casino Tulsa, will also feature a handful of other Ring Events and satellites into the Main Event.

$100,000 Guaranteed Main Event

The $100,000 guaranteed Main Event will have three starting flights, the first of which will kick off on Oct. 14 while the next two flights play on Oct. 15.

The exchange for their $600 buy-in, players will receive a starting stack of 30,000 chips with blinds starting at 100/200/200. The Day 1 flights will play until 12.5% of the field remains from each and the remaining players will combine on Oct. 16 for Day 2, which will play down to a winner.

For those who don’t want to put up $600 for the event, there will be a number of satellites running for an opportunity to win a seat, including a $150 satellite awarding ten guaranteed seats and another $150 satellite awarding five guaranteed seats.
