Day 1b will then take place at 11 a.m. on Saturday, September 7, with Day 1c taking place that evening at 6 p.m. The surviving players from all flights will then return at Noon on Sunday, September 8 to play down to a winner.

Here’s a look at the full schedule:

Who Will Win Their Way to the NAPT?

The RGPS has partnered with the North American Poker Tour (NAPT) for a special “Golden Player of the Series” leaderboard that will award a Gold Pass valued at $10,000 to November’s NAPT Las Vegas at Resorts World (November 1-10). The leaderboard will award and reset every RunGood tour stop prior to October 23rd, meaning one lucky player from Horseshoe Tunica will punch their ticket to Las Vegas.

Each Gold Pass prize package includes the following:

• $5,300 Buy-In: Entry to the Main Event of the NAPT.
• $2,900 Hotel Accommodation: Ensuring a luxurious stay during the tournament.
• $1,800 Expenses: Additional funds to cover travel and other costs.

“We couldn’t be more excited to partner with the NAPT and help grow the game of poker across the country. The RunGood Poker Series has always looked for ways to give back to players for their continual support over the past decade. This collaboration helps further that mantra in spades.” said Tana Karn, CEO of the RunGood Poker Series.

“Working with RunGood to create a unique opportunity for poker players to attend NAPT Las Vegas is something we’re really excited about. We saw the great events RunGood is organizing, and we share the same values of taking the best care of players. Our aim is for the NAPT event in November to follow in the success of 2023, and we hope to see players from all over attend!” Cedric Billot, Associate Director, Live Events Operations.
