Last Time in Reno
The RunGood Series was last in Reno in October 2024. At that stop, the $600 Main Event drew 301 runners for a prize pool of $153,510.
Pharmacist Dustin Cavanaugh of Montana won the event for $33,450 and his first RunGood ring as he defeated Reno local Michael Harris during heads-up play.
“This is the best weekend of poker I have had in years,” the newly crowned champion told PokerNews after the victory, “so much fun, lot of good players, lot of good competition, and I had a blast.”
The final table also included Greg Paradero (9th - $3,360), Thomas Tran (8th - $4,210) and eventual 2024 WPT World Championship winner Scott Stewart (3rd - $15,130).
