RGPS OKC Main Event: Ready For Day 2? Jaymie Jordan Leads 63 Returning Players
The starting flights are over and Jaymie Jordan leads the final 63 players heading into Day 2 at noon on Sunday.
A total of 313 players queued up for the first-ever RunGood Poker Series $575 Main Event at Grand Casino and Resort and the field easily passed the $100k guarantee.
Jordan and Mason "Uncle Ron" Hinkle are the top two stacks and are neck and neck heading into Day 2. Both Grant and Blair Hinkle will join their brother in Day 2 as well.
Megan Moore, Dan Lowery, WSOP Bracelet winner Mike Cordell, Bart Bogard, and RGPS Tunica Main Event champion Tiffany Keathley all took their shots, but failed to make it through to Sunday's restart.
Here is a look at the top five chip stacks entering Day 2.

The prize pool is still being worked out, but the top 36 players should make the money. A good mix of first-time RGPS participants and regulars have moved on to Day 2. Each is competing for the top prize as well as the championship ring as part of the RGPS Game 7 season. The one-of-a-kind rings are crafted by Signature Championship Rings and are awarded to every single event winner from this RGPS season.
