The RunGood Poker Series Gold Road continues this month, with Team RGPS returning to the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

The RGPS Gold Rush Tulsa event will be held from October 20th to 25th, culminating in the $800 Main Event, with a guaranteed prize pool of $100,000. PokerNews will be providing live coverage of the main event from the field.

Six days, eight ring events

The Tulsa event will kick off on October 20 with the $300 Seniors Ring event (50 years and older), followed by the $250 Series Opening Ring event and the $300 Team Double Ring event on the same day.

A highlight of the tournament is the $400 PokerNews PowerStack Ring Event, a two-day event with two preliminary rounds and a guaranteed prize pool of $50,000.

However, the biggest draw of this series is the main event, which guarantees $100,000, featuring four preliminary rounds and culminating in a champion selection on October 25th. This event is expected to attract a large number of players vying for the six-figure guaranteed prize pool.

Other highlights of the schedule include the $400 40/40/40 Ring Event, the $400 Pot-Limit Omaha (PLO) Ring Event, and the $400 Blackjack Bounty NLH Ring Event, which will conclude the series on October 25th, coinciding with Day 2 of the Main Event.
