Day 1B Entries: 122
The 122 entries in Flight B are pushing the RunGood Main Event to new levels and they are going to put another $100,000 on top of the guarantee before too long.
Raminder Singh was one of the recent entries, our defending champ back to try and do it again. He won the inaugural RunGood Main Event last summer for a $45,456 then went to Las Vegas and won their ProAM in December.
Singh also holds a unique distinction; only a few players have won a trophy at each of our three Seminole Poker Rooms in Florida; in addition to the Main Event here in 2021, he won the $600 Deep Stack during the 2020 Tampa Winter Poker Open, and in Hollywood, he holds the record for most wins ever at eight.
