RGPS Southern Indiana Main Event Is Underway at Caesars
The $800 buy-in carries a $200,000 guarantee, with four starting flights and Day 2 set for Aug. 23.
The RGPS Golden Expedition Southern Indiana $800 Main Event begins at Caesars Southern Indiana at 6 p.m. local time, with a $200,000 guaranteed prize pool and four starting flights on the schedule. Day 1a is the first flight, and the remaining entries are set for Aug. 21 at 6 p.m., Aug. 22 at 11 a.m., and Aug. 22 at 6 p.m., before Day 2 on Aug. 23 at 1 p.m. plays down to a champion.
Players start with 30,000 chips, and the opening flights use 30-minute levels. Late registration stays open until the start of Level 9, and unlimited reentries are allowed during that period, which gives players a long runway to jump in or fire again.
As covered last week, PokerNews brought back its PowerStack leaderboard for the fall season, and Southern Indiana is one of the first stops where players can start building points. This is also a return trip to the room after April, when Jasper May beat a 321-player field to win $47,787. RunGood ambassadors Craig Welko and Chris Audrain, along with WSOP bracelet winner Ronnie Day, also cashed in that event.
RunGood's own announcement frames Golden Expedition as a season-long trip across North America and the Caribbean, with president Tana Karn calling it "one continuous adventure." The route is set to end at the Dream Factory Festival at Thunder Valley Casino Resort in Lincoln, California, from Nov. 27 through Dec. 3, where two invitational tournaments are reserved for 2026 RunGood ring winners.
