After a successful week of tournaments, a total of 1,043 players came out to play The RunGood Poker Series $800 Main Event at Graton Casino in Rohnert Park, California. This massive turnout smashed the initial guarantee and put the prizepool at $730,100, with a whopping $122,385 awarded to first place. The starting field has been reduced to just 132 players, all of whom are guaranteed $1,175, but all of them with eyes on the prestige of winning one of the biggest RGPS Main Events ever.
Leading the way is Day 1a��s chip leader Noel Rodriguez, who ended his day with 799,000. Rodriguez bagged the only stack over 700,000 and despite three flights coming after him, held onto the chip lead through them all. Rodriguez holds the top spot as well as over $200,000 in career cashes on Hendon mob. A win here could add his biggest overall score, and with his stack he is in the prime position to make a run for it.
