RunGood Poker Series back at the Atlantis
Submitted by Carson Now Reader on Mon, 10/07/2024 - 3:22pm
Cards will be in the air as the RunGood Poker Series returns to Atlantis Casino Resort Spa October 8-13. The six-day series includes a host of guaranteed tournaments and nine ring events, headlined by a $150,000 guaranteed main event.
Each ring event winner will earn an automatic entry into the tour’s end-of-year Dream Seat Invitational sponsored by PokerGO. This exclusive event invites 2024 ring winners to participate for a seat to represent the tour’s best at the PGT $1,000,000 Championship Freeroll. The RunGood Poker Series has also partnered with the North American Poker Tour (NAPT) to award the top scoring player at each tour stop a $10,000 valued Gold Pass to the NAPT: Las Vegas Festival at Resorts World. Points will be awarded based on performance in non-exclusive ring events.
“The turnout for the first two RunGood events we hosted was fantastic,” said Shannon Kenny, manager of the Atlantis Poker Room. “The best part is you don’t have to be a poker pro to take part. We’ve seen players of all skill levels win tournament events.”
The opening day schedule includes a Seniors Ring Event (50+), Series Opener No Limit Hold’em Ring Event and Guest Bounty Ring Event. RunGood ambassadors Joe Stapleton, Jamie Kerstetter, Corey Paggeot, Jake Straus and Julie Cornelius will be participating in several events throughout the Atlantis tour stop. Buy-ins for ring events range from $250 to $600.
This will be the second time in 2024 that the RunGood Poker Series holds an event at the Atlantis. Back in May, Reno’s Billy Casey won the $600 Main Event, outlasting a field of 291 players to take home $29,092.
