A Champion Will Be Crowned Today in RGPS Jamul Casino Main Event
The next RunGood Poker Series (RGPS) champion will be crowned today as Day 2 RGPS Jamul Casino Main Event in San Diego kicks off at noon local time.
The Main Event had three starting flights and 500 runners to generate a prize pool of $250,000 to smash the guarantee of $100,000. Only 107 of those players are returning for Day 2 (109 including two players who double-bagged) as they compete for the top prize.
A total of 63 spots will be paid out, with a minimum cash being worth $890. The first-place finisher will earn a cash of $48,855 and an exclusive invitation and $800 seat and stipend package to the RGPS: All Stars Pro-am Event at PokerGo Studios in December 2022.
