Armando Mesina Wins RunGood Poker Series All Stars Jamul Casino Main Event ($25,175)

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

After a year and a half hiatus due to the world-changing pandemic, the reigning Mid-Major Poker Tour of the Year returned to much fanfare. The latest RunGood Poker Series All Stars stop took place at Jamul Casino in San Diego, California.

It was there 65-year-old retired Navy veteran Armando Mesina, who a month earlier won the MSPT Sycuan $360 Regional Event for $33,329, finished on top of a field of 558 entries to win the RGPS All Stars Jamul Casino $575 Main Event for $25,175.

The final table featured a rare nine-player deal which left $5,000 in prize money, the $550 invite-only Pro-AM seat in Las Vegas, and the coveted All-Star Ring left on the line for the winner.

Despite winning the extra $5,000 and the title, fourth-place finisher Matt Bradford walked home with an even bigger prize of $26,250 thanks to having a chip edge when the deal was agreed.

Mesina sealed the deal for the title after his ace-four held against the eight-six suited held by Farid Karimi (second - $18,808) in a drama hand where Karimi flopped a pair only to lose his stack after an ace spiked the river to give Mesina a better pair.

Tai Reyes-Purpero Wins Casino Champ

Tai Reyes-Purpero
Tai Reyes-Purpero

Congratulations to Tai Reyes-Purpero for winning himself a Pro-Am qualifier seat to the filmed event to be hosted by PokerGO this December!

Reyes-Purpero started Sunday with one point with a cash in the $185 DeepStack event earlier this week. The Casino Champion point race was wide open, with each side event winner at the top spots holding 25 points each.

At the end of Sunday, Mark Feinberg seemed to be the only threat that could top Tai if he had placed third or better in the closing event, but ultimately ended up tying with Reyes-Purpero for points but generated less total cash earned to determine the tie-breaker.

None of the other Main Event final tablists were in contention with Reyes-Purpero, as none had cashed in any events earlier this week, leaving the second-place Main Event finisher with 25 points, just shy of the 26 points that Tai had collected.

The stop will offer a full schedule of satellites and side events culminating with a $575 buy-in, $100K GTD Main Event, which PokerNews will live report.

Karimi: {6-Spades}{8-Spades}

Mesina: {a-Hearts}{4-Spades}

The board favored Karimi as it came {10-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{5-Spades} but when the {a-Spades} arrived on the river, with it ended Karimi's hunt for the ring and top prize. Farid Karimi finished in second place for $18,808.

Allen Zoura went all in when action made it to him and he pushed his entire stack forward. Immediately after his action was complete, Matt Bradford tossed in a chip to call and everyone else folded.

Zoura: {q-Hearts}{2-Hearts}

Bradford: {a-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}

The board ran out {5-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{k-Spades}{k-Hearts} and Bradford's Ace high was good for the pot. Zoura takes home $14,921 due to the 9-handed chop.

Zoura: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}

The board ran out {5-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{2-Spades}{8-Hearts} and Zoura won it with a straight. O'dwyer will take home $21,864 thanks to the chop everyone agreed to earlier.

Chris Stallkamp was all in and called by Stephen O'dwyer. Both turned over their cards and awaited the fate of Stallkamp as O'dwyer had him covered.

Stallkamp: {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}

O'dwyer: {7-Spades}{7-Clubs}

It looked like this was going Stallkamp's direction until the {7-Diamonds} appeared on the flop. Stallkamp was unable to catch up on the turn or river and his chipstack was pushed to O'dwyer.
