RGPS Tulsa Hard Rock Main Event: Blair Hinkle Leads 61 Players Heading to Day 2, Jacob Seale Bags Final Flight Lead
Jacob Seale, who just finished runner-up to Nam Phan for $32,428 at the RGPS Kansas City Main Event last weekend, bagged the chip lead with 255,500 on Day 1c of the RGPS Tulsa Hard Rock Main Event.
The final flight drew 111 players and 25 bagged to bring the total field returning for Day 2 to 61. There were a total of 319 entries and Blair Hinkle will lead the way into Day 2 with a whopping 451,000, after bagging a massive lead in Day 1b earlier in the day.
Clint Tolbert fell at the hands of Seale when Tolbert shoved a turned two pair into Seale, who called to hit trip tens on the river and eliminate Tolbert. Julie Cornelius sat on a short stack most of the day, but managed to find a bag and will start Day 2 with 39,000.
Mason Hinke (66,500) will join his brothers Grant (139,500) and Blair in Day 2 as well.
Day 2 will restart Sunday at noon with 61 players returning. The official prize pool has not been announced yet, but will be before the start of play.
