Welcome to Day 1a of the RunGood Poker Series All Stars Horseshoe Council Bluffs $575 Main Event
The RunGood Poker Series continues "The Comeback Tour" this week, as the series has rolled into Horseshoe Council Bluffs for a series of events, culminating in this weekend's $575 Main Event with a $100,000 Guarantee. Day 1a is set to kick off at 7 p.m. local time, and a packed house is expected to hit the felt in search of a Day 2 bag.
Players begin with 20,000 in tournament chips, and blinds will kick off at 100/100. Blind levels are 30-minutes in length throughout all three Day 1 flights, and a 10-minute break will occur after Levels 4 and 8. Registration and unlimited re-entry are open until the beginning of Level 9 on all three flights, and play will come to a close at the conclusion of Level 12.
Players who are unable to find a bag in tonight's flight will have two more chances to advance, with a Noon flight and a 7 p.m. flight of the Main Event kicking off Saturday, June 25th. All players who manage to make Day 2 will return on Sunday, June 27th at Noon to play down to a champion, who will not only earn the top prize and the All-Stars Ring, but will earn a Pro-Am seat into the exclusive RGPS All-Stars Event taking place at the PokerGO Studios in Las Vegas, Nevada later this year.
Expected to be in attendance in today's Day 1a flight are an assortment of RunGood ambassadors and pros, such as Daniel Lowery, Ross Bybee, Emily Larson, and Steve Fredlund. Other local crushers we'll be looking for include Ryan Phan and Taylor Howard.
Day 1a gets underway shortly, and PokerNews will be on hand all weekend providing live coverage, along with photos courtesy of RGPS Photographer Joe Garrett. Stay tuned for all the action from Horseshoe Council Bluffs and the RunGood Poker Series!
