We closed out the RunGood Poker Series with two fun tournaments on Monday starting with the $150 buy-in Survivor in the morning.

The tournament drew 71 entries to push the $5,000 guarantee into a prize pool worth $8,875. The last seven spots earned a $1,250 payout while the eighth picked up a rebate worth the buy-in amount.

Six hours after the start, the tournament made the final table and Christopher Sweeney went out in eighth for the $150 return. Martin Borras, Dany Blackburn, Miguel Briganty, James Dement, Joseph Mancuso, Jay Silver, and Event 7 champ Milly Berman finished in the top spot and earned $1,250.

Level 34:  200,000/400,000 with a 400,000 ante

Vladimir Grechnikov

Vladimir Grechnikov moved all in from the button and Jason Wandling called with a similar stack.

Wandling: AhQd
Grechnikov; TdTs

It was a race for the top spot, the players shook hands, and turned their backs to the table. They kept their eyes off the table until the dealer ran out the entire 7d7s6s6h4h board then turned around to see the results.

Grechnikov’s tens held up, they counted down the stacks, and he barely covered Wandling to win all the chips and end the tournament.

Wandling earned $65,000 for his runner-up finish while Grechnikov took home $80,268 and will play in the RunGood All-Star ProAM in December.

Tournament recap to come shortly.

1st: Vladimir Grechnikov – $80,268

Denys Shafikov

After sending a big double to Vladimir Grechnikov, Denys Shafikov was down to an even 1,000,000 and put those chips in the middle against Jason Wandling.

Wandling; Ad6h
Shafikov: 8c7d

Shafikov needed to catch to double but missed the Th5d3cAs4d and Wandling’s paired ace sent him out in third place.

Denys Shafikov – Eliminated in 3rd Place ($65,000)

Jason Wandling moved all in for 5,000,000 from the small blind and Matt Bretzfield called in the big.

Wandling: QhQs
Bretzfield: As2s

Wandling found a huge hand, he flopped a set on the Qc4d3d board, and doubled when it finished 2c and 7d.

Bretzfield was left with a single big blind and eliminated soon after.

Jason Wandling – 10,300,000 (26 bb)

Matt Bretzfield

Day 2 of the RunGood Main Event played for 15 hours and they were unable to determine our champ. Four players return this afternoon to continue the final table and find our 2022 champion.

Matt Bretzfield returns with the chips lead but the stacks went shallow with three hours of five-handed play. So it’s still anyone’s game when cards go back in the air with 26:05 remaining in Level 33.

Seat 4: Jason Wandling – 2,950,000 (10 bb)
Seat 6: Matt Bretzfield – 5,900,000 (20 bb)
